Judi attained her MFT graduate degree from Fuller Theological Seminary in the midst of raising her three children. Fortunately, God provided Judi with a strong and supportive husband (for 31 years and counting), as well as good friends and loving children. Both of Judi’s sons and her daughter have Type I diabetes mellitus. This has given Judi perspective and passion in working with individuals, couples, and families coping with chronic and/or life-threatening health issues. Major depression, anxiety and panic attacks, stress, communication problems, relational issues, marital troubles and enrichment, and parenting are other areas of expertise. 

Judi’s approach to therapy seeks to integrate God’s ability to heal with clinical expertise. Bringing relationships to healthy states, leading people to greater self-knowledge and enjoyment of life, and maximizing strengths to help each person better become who God wants them to be are at the heart of Judi’s practice. 

In addition, Judi is a warm, approachable person, who enjoys working with people of all varieties – children, adolescents, adults young in age or at heart, couples before, within, or after marriage, and families of all types.
