If you are distressed, you may not find it very helpful or even possible to discuss it with family and friends. However, talking to an objective person (that's me!) can often help you resolve issues. In addition, I perform psychological evaluations for people age 7 through adulthood and specialize in pain evaluations. It's hard to crawl out of the black pit of depression. My life experiences and training give me an excellent perspective to help depressed people climb out of that pit. I also understand how pain can change and restrict your life and can provide coping strategies.

The scope of my therapy practice is based on the belief that children are growing, developing individuals who at times need assistance beyond their families and school structures to develop emotional and social skills, self confidence, and coping skills to handle stressors. Children are often more open than adults to change and I absolutely love getting to see them transform and grow. I work with children and adolescents ages 4 to 18.

Imagine going on an unfamiliar journey through treacherous terrain without proper guidance and tools. Sometimes in our journey through life, we encounter the treacherous terrain of overwhelming stress, anxiety, and depression. Perhaps your path seems dark, your usual coping tools are malfunctioning, and you feel lost and afraid. As an experienced therapist, I will help you navigate through your challenges and find your inner strength and beauty. I will help you and your family sharpen their coping tools so that you can reclaim ownership of your life and embrace the joy and productivity each day offers.

I am a board-certified clinical mental health counselor who is considered an expert in my field. Using an eclectic style of therapy, my work focuses on implementing evidence-based practices along with holistic practices to improve the identification and treatment of mental illness. I do not believe in "fixing" people because I am not a mechanic and people are not machines. I do feel that everyone has their own journey, and each path may be different, but it never hurts to have a guide. No matter what your past consists of it does not define who you are.

Making the initial decision to seek professional help for you or your loved one can be intimidating. I’m the therapist for people that “don’t like therapy”. Many of the people I see are new to therapy, "didn't believe in it" or have had negative experiences with therapy in the past. They come in with doubts, questions and fears. I believe that everyone that walks through my door deserves respect. My ultimate goal is to create a safe place to explore the messiness of life in a comfortable, laid-back and non-judgmental space. Life can be difficult, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. You are welcome here.

Navigating life's inevitable challenges can be difficult, but you do not have to face this alone. With over 10 years of experience in addiction, complex trauma,anxiety/depression, and relational/family issues - I believe I can be the person to help you face it. My experience also extends to military populations, in which I have specialized training.

I have enjoyed working for various mental health agencies and have extensive experience in several areas of counseling. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and I have worked with individuals, couples, families and groups. I am licensed in MS, NV, CO,SD, TX, LA, AL, GA, VA, and NC.

When a person is faced with life stressors, it can be hard to know how to "act" or "present themselves." An ideal client is one who recognizes that something is not right and takes the first step in seeking help. That is the most difficult part. They recognize the way they are feeling is not how they want or need to feel. It takes courage to ask for help and I understand the process of finding a therapist can be overwhelming. I am proud of you for taking the first steps towards a positive change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you through your journey.

Whether you are a seasoned therapy veteran or this is your first experience in counseling, anyone can benefit from having a safe, confidential place to explore past traumas, anxieties, life transitions, other stressors.

My practice typically services children and adolescents with developmental disabilities and/or behavioral difficulties such as Autism, ADHD, toileting problems, sleep problems, and compliance.

My goal is to assist clients who are experiencing life changes, whether these are personal, family or employment, or even health related. I have been helping individuals, families, and groups for the last 14 years in a variety of settings. Life can become extremely complicated and at times, it may be necessary to reach out for help and guidance. All of us deserve a rewarding, productive, and positive life but at times struggle to reach this objective. My aim is to help my clients rediscover the power and self confidence that they have within them and enjoy their life to the fullest again.

Whether for you, your child, or adolescent, my focus is to meet you where you are and to listen.
