Find Your Counselor

Once upon a time, a military medic took a moment to listen to the story of a soldier who was suffering somatically from the sheer amount of distress they felt. That medic found her "Ah-ha" and pursued further education within the mental health field with unmatched passion. Your healing is something I aspire to work together with you to achieve. My areas of expertise include working with populations such as children, teens, and parents. I am capable of addressing difficult and complex traumas by utilizing a trauma-informed approach. I strive for every patient encounter to leave you feeling appreciated as a human being and heard. I follow a person-centered approach while integrating other modalities as needed, including play therapy techniques.

I am a mother to three adult children, a grandmother to the sweetest girl, and the wife of an exceptionally gifted husband. As a therapist, I've faced challenges in treating people to a standard of health or healing. Every medical profession, except for mental health, has a specific standard that defines when a client is considered healthy or healed. The optometrist corrects vision to 20/20, a dentist ensures teeth are straight and free of cavities, and an orthopedic doctor restores broken bones to their proper alignment. Therapists are called to help restore, heal, and empower clients to move forward in life. Furthermore, as the wife of a retired military veteran, I have great admiration and love for the men and women who serve our great country. I am passionate about helping those who are hurting due to military deployments, separations, divorce, and anyone who simply needs a listening ear to share their story. I have survived deployments, year-long separations, single parenting, and moving from state to state and overseas. I have endured many life hardships, fought personal battles, and emerged victorious. In addition, I have worked with individuals on parole and probation, those dealing with bipolar disorder, depression, trauma, schizophrenia, and addiction-related issues. I enjoy working with adults. I specialize in: Military Lifestyle, depression, anxiety, co-dependency, addiction, and marital infidelity. My counseling style seeks to meet the needs of those I serve. I am a faith-based counselor with experience in CBT, DBT techniques, reality-focused therapy, and EMDR training. The most daunting challenge for any client seeking help is making that first contact and walking through the door. There is victory on the other side if you are willing to take the first step in seeking it. My door is wide open and ready to help those who are weary, downtrodden, or who simply need affirmation or encouragement. My clients say I listen intently, engage passionately, and have the ability to be direct, courageous, yet kind and empathetic.

Welcome! Therapy is about having a good "fit" that can blossom into a great therapeutic relationship. A therapist who is willing to listen while working alongside a client is essential. Treatment often sounds very clinical; however, I encourage you to remember that the goals and objectives of treatment are intended to be collaborative and client-directed. Therapists are not meant to "fix" people but are called to be catalysts of change through which the client navigates their circumstances. As an eclectic and integrative therapist, my role is to listen and provide options for treatment approaches that fit your needs in a safe, comfortable, and supportive atmosphere. I look forward to being a part of your team.

Healing from the painful life experiences that impact us all is a process that should not be undertaken in isolation. I would be honored to journey alongside you as you navigate this difficult season of life. As a relational therapist, I believe that our stories begin and end in the community. We cannot understand your current life space without considering the family, society, and culture that have shaped your world. I am an emotionally focused, trained therapist who utilizes a systemic, attachment-based, and culturally conscious approach to therapy. I believe that therapy works best when everyone can be authentically themselves. That's why I strive to create a safe environment where you can show up exactly as you are without fear of judgment. I also value humor in therapy when appropriate because laughter can be another piece of that healing. I look forward to the work we will do together!

When we go through difficult seasons, it is easy to feel alone and isolated. When bad things happen to us in the past, they tend to shadow our present; we feel trapped, as if we can never escape from our history. We may feel that we can never improve and that it's all hopeless. However, there is hope, there is healing, and there is wholeness. As your therapist, I fill the role of "empathic witness" by meeting you where you are and walking alongside you in your journey to wholeness. Based on my understanding of the mind-body connection, my professional philosophy involves working with you to explore how your body and brain influence your thoughts and emotions. Together, we can change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, manage overwhelming emotions, and promote calmness in both your body and mind. I value the therapist-client relationship because it is essential for fostering healthy change. I strive to help you feel safe, secure, and empowered in our sessions. I am particularly passionate about working with individuals who have a trauma background and are feeling stuck in their anxiety and depression. Together, we can help you regain control over your life.

If you’re seeking change—whether it's breaking old patterns, managing overwhelming emotions, or creating a life that feels more aligned and fulfilling—you’re in the right place. I work with individuals motivated to grow and ready to move forward, even if they’re unsure where to start. My practice is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients understand and shift the patterns of thinking and behavior that may be keeping them stuck. In addition to CBT, I use an integrative approach that draws from various evidence-based practices tailored to each person’s unique needs. This allows us to address challenges not just cognitively, but also emotionally and holistically—supporting healing and growth on multiple levels. I meet each client where they are, offering a supportive and nonjudgmental space to explore what’s holding them back and what’s possible. Together, we’ll clarify your goals, develop tools for coping and healing, and uncover the direction and sense of purpose you’ve been searching for. My goal is to help you maximize your potential, gain insight, and move toward the wellness and wholeness you deserve.
