Many of my clients, especially couples,come to me after unsuccessful experiences elsewhere. My approach is a "game changer" because I don't just facilitate talk; I use a flexible framework that includes specific interventions like EFT "tangos" to create real emotional connection and the "TTT" (Think, Talk, Try) method for actionable change.

I intentionally built “The Warming Hut” to be a conversational, safe, and judgment-free space. I meet each client with the same respect and care, whether you come from a Christian background, another faith tradition, or no faith at all. My approach is grounded in a “ministry of presence,” so you feel heard and understood rather than analyzed     

Initially, we typically meet weekly to build momentum. Once you start seeing progress and change, we often shift to a biweekly cadence, eventually moving to a monthly "check-in" as you gain confidence in your new tools.

It’s a simple, no-pressure meeting to determine if we are a good fit. We’ll discuss your story, your goals, and practicalities like scheduling and payment. It can be done via phone, video, or in-person,whichever makes you most comfortable.

Not at all. Many couples and individuals come to The Warming Hut before things feel “broken.” Some are navigating disconnection, recurring conflict, or life transitions and want support before issues deepen. Early support often leads to faster, more sustainable change.

That’s very common. The initial consultation is designed to feel approachable and low-pressure, even for those who are skeptical or new to this kind of work. My role is not to take sides, but to help both of you feel safe, understood, and supported in exploring what’s next, at your own pace.

My work blends therapeutic insight with practical, real-world tools. While grounded in evidence-based approaches like EFT, sessions are highly relational and experiential, not just talk-based. Many clients appreciate that they leave sessions with both emotional clarity and something tangible to try between sessions.

Every situation is unique, but many clients report feeling a shift, more understanding, relief, or hope, within the first few sessions. Lasting change comes from building new patterns over time, and we’ll regularly check in to make sure the work feels helpful and aligned with your goals.

That’s completely understandable. You are never forced to share more than you’re ready to. We move at a pace that feels safe, and trust builds gradually. My priority is creating an environment where you feel respected, supported, and in control of your own process

Yes. Your privacy is taken seriously. Sessions are confidential, and care is taken to create a space where you can speak freely and honestly without fear of judgment or exposure.

The Warming Hut is designed to feel human, relational, and grounded in presence, not sterile or transactional. Rather than following a rigid script, I respond to what’s happening in the room, using proven frameworks and real-time interventions to help create genuine connection and movement.

Faith can be part of our work if it’s meaningful to you. I work with clients from Christian backgrounds, other faith traditions, and those with no religious affiliation at all. For clients who desire a Christian-integrated approach, I’m able to thoughtfully incorporate faith into our sessions. For others, our work remains fully respectful, inclusive, and focused on your goals. The starting point is always you.

In addition to being a licensed therapist, I am also trained as a chaplain. That background shapes the way I show up in the room, with deep respect, presence, and care for the whole person. The chaplaincy lens informs my “ministry of presence” approach: listening closely, honoring your story, and creating a space where you feel genuinely seen and supported, especially during moments of transition, loss, or uncertainty.
