I have been a mental health professional for over 40 years in a variety of settings. My experience includes service in three community mental health centers in Tennessee and Arkansas, a State Hospital internship and four years as a Staff Psychologist with the Arkansas Department of Correction. I have seen clients from a wide-range of settings with a wide-range of challenging problems. My primary focus is providing assistance to those experiencing emotional disturbances which have become overwhelming to the extent of threatening, or actually damaging the quality of the person's life.

I believe therapy works best when you feel truly seen, accepted, and safe enough to be yourself—even the parts you’re not so sure about yet. My style is warm, open, and non-judgmental, with room for humor and lightness alongside deep, meaningful work. I aim to create a space where you can exhale, be real, and explore what’s going on beneath the surface.

My mission is to empower clients with knowledge about themselves and their strengths. Furthermore, I will work clients to help them identify their truth as it relates to their lives. I seek to help clients pull from within themselves the strength needed to persevere and overcome daily life obstacles and struggles. I hope to have clients find their own strength to work through their issues. I aspire for clients to celebrate the small wins and use that to push them to greater gains.

It has been shown time and again the relationship between client and counselor is the most important part of a therapy experience. It is always on my mind to ensure that our relationship remains entirely focused on you, but as a part of the collaborative duo that will become client and therapist I’m happy to share a bit about myself. Relationally, I have been described as down-to-earth, authentic and sincere and I enjoy laughing and celebrating with clients in the therapy space as well. With humility and curiosity I am eager to hear about your life experiences. Licensed in Tennessee, Maryland & Virginia.

People pleasing and perfectionist tendencies leaves us drained, resentful, and disconnected from who we are at the core. You may be fed up with the pressures and expectations of doing “all of the things”, feeling stretched too thin or wish you had the inner strength to make yourself a priority. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to commit to the change. You’re ready to kick self doubt to the curb. Most of all, you’re ready to embark on a journey towards peace and purpose.

I am both inspired by and respectful of the time, courage and commitment it takes for you to engage in a therapeutic relationship, especially via telehealth. Utilizing a strength’s-based approach, I believe helping you to set realistic and achievable goals is pivotal to a successful outcome of self-sufficiency and self-care. Working from a place of compassion, flexibility and sensitivity, I also recognize and incorporate in treatment the importance of different life factors (e.g., family, cultural and environment) that heavily influence us socially and emotionally and our abilities to cope with challenges.

I help Millennial and Gen Z women who struggle with saying no, asking for help, finding time for themselves, and feel guilty or selfish when they consider doing something for them. They often think ‘if I don’t do it, who will?’
My clients first come in feeling like you. Despite being intelligent, supportive, hardworking, and creative, they sometimes feel weighed down with responsibility. They find themselves overworked, tired, underappreciated, and frustrated. It's hard being everyone’s go to person while walking on eggshells to please them and avoid the discomfort of upsetting or disappointing others. Let's grow together!

As your therapist, I foster a safe, non-judgmental, and nurturing environment for clients to learn and grow at their own pace. I wholeheartedly believe one of the most crucial aspects of counseling is the relationship between a therapist and their client.

I strive to create a compassionate, non-judgmental environment in which together we can identify your goals and develop an individualized plan to meet them. In addition to helping clients develop ways to cope with current stressors and manage behavior, I believe that therapy is most effective when also addressing the underlying issues that led to the development of current symptoms.

I assist clients (neurotypical, neurodivergent, and neurodiverse) to achieve goals and make adjustments in their life that allow them to be their best self. Most clients’ desire to improve, however, don't fully have the necessary tools to make this goal a reality. Typically, they feel stuck, overwhelmed, and have mixed emotions regarding their situation. Many clients need assistance and guidance in managing and coping with various live changes. I provide clients with an opportunity to be supported in a safe environment where their thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment that utilizes integrative interventions.

I work with clients who are ready to move toward whole-person wellness- where mental, physical, and spiritual health are all part of the conversation. Healing doesn’t happen in isolation. Research supports this connection through concepts like the gut-brain relationship, polyvagal theory, and the way trauma lives in the body. But you may already feel this in your day-to-day life, how depression drains your energy, how stress shows up as tension, or how you shift depending on the space you’re in. When we approach healing from a whole-body perspective, it opens the door to deeper, more meaningful change.
