When I work with individuals and families, I talk a lot about attachment. It’s the foundation for how we navigate life. Everybody’s goal should be to achieve earned secure attachment—the capacity to give care, receive care, negotiate needs, and be ok with autonomous self. Personally, I’ve been working very hard on this for a veryContinue reading “Earned secure”

A Moment in Time
Do you find yourself in the same place week after week with your child? “I’m tired of the way they make me feel like I’m a ___.” (Fill in the blank.) The struggle is not with your child; it’s with you. Hard words—but nobody can make you feel anything. What you’re hearing is an echo—anContinue reading “A Moment in Time”
Intimacy with Him
“I see your blushing cheeks opened like the halves of a pomegranate shown through your veil of tender meekness. When I look at you, I see your inner strength so stately and strong you are secure as David’s fortress your virtues and grace to cause 1000 famous soldiers to surrender to your beauty. Your pureContinue reading “Intimacy with Him”
The Fruit
Jesus, in Luke 22:17–18, shares with His disciples that His time with them is drawing to a close, saying He will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes. This statement points to a future fulfillment and underscores the significance of the moment. The “fruit of the vine” symbolizesContinue reading “The Fruit”

ItContinue reading “The Longing”
A cup of cold water
Jesus came to bring “The Way.” He walked through every step that we will walk through as humans. He loved, He laughed, He cried—and in the end, He followed the Father’s heart for humanity. Jesus came because The Way of love needed to be laid. There is so much in time and history that weContinue reading “A cup of cold water”

Each piece captures the quiet tension between memory and change, inviting viewers to pause with me in the space between what was and what is becoming. I create to preserve moments that might otherwise go unnoticed, turning small truths into visual testimonies. ThroughContinue reading “You can have a piece of time.”

The space where you see and experience what cannot be explained.A new season is here, and in this season, I know He is near. There’s a longing within everyone for intimacy —Continue reading “Dance with me – Holy Spirit”
Everyone has a story
I don’t know where you’re from and you don’t know where I’m from. I don’t know where you’ve been and you don’t know where I’m going. You see what you see based on where you’re from. The hidden things define what is ahead. I don’t decide for you when it’s time like you don’t decideContinue reading “Everyone has a story”
