My goal is to help you reach your best potential, to learn how to let go of the negativity that may be holding you back, and feel more confident within yourself. Together we will dig past the surface issues to identify what is creating these problems so that you can resolve them for good! It would be an honor for me to help you navigate through this journey and I look forward to hearing from you!

Are you feeling sad, lacking energy, and feeling like something is wrong all of the time? Has your mood been up and down and you've found it hard to get along with people, particularly those closest to you? Have you started using drugs and alcohol in amounts that concern you and are impacting your day to day life?

It's never easy asking for help, and choosing someone to help with issues as difficult as anxiety, depression, past trauma, or current relationship issues can be a stressful process in and of itself. Thank you for taking the time to read through my profile and considering me to support you in your process. As someone with a degenerative eye disease, I know what it's like to struggle. Life is often difficult and I want to assist people in finding a greater understanding and practical solutions in their lives that ultimately lead to greater happiness.

I offer psychotherapy, as well as, psychological evaluations: ADHD, developmental delays, behavior problems, IQ, advanced placement, disability consideration, emotional support animals, etc. I provide therapy for a variety of emotional/behavioral issues for all ages. I have a special interest in toddlers/preschoolers/children with developmental/behavioral/emotional problems and women with depression/anxiety. I enjoy helping parents learn how to best help their children to become happy and successful. I do parent coordination as well. I have a farm office, so is a much less formal atmosphere. Bring your pet or borrow mine!

Are you are tired of the same old behaviors and thoughts keeping you stuck? Are you spending most of the day tired, overwhelmed, critical of yourself and others, and feeling like you know that there has to be more to life than how you are living now? If you show up for everyone else but just don't know how to be there for yourself, there is hope. What you are struggling with now doesn't have to define your future!

Hello and thank you for taking time to check out my page and seeing how I may assist. I am a Veteran of the United States Marine Corps and now use my experiences and training as a clinician to better assist in the many struggles of life. Not only do I work with my fellow veteran's, but I also treat all members of the community. Many children, teens, and adults go through many transitions in today's society. Anxiety, depression and trauma are more prevalent than ever and many have trouble reaching out or connecting. By building the therapeutic rapport, those walls are broken down and we begin to rebuild.

Currently Accepting New Clients: Preteen & up. Both Individual & Couples. The office is available for in-person sessions (following a strict protocol to ensure the health of both clients and staff), as well as, telehealth sessions (video & phone). Since the pandemic began, clients are reporting increased levels of fear, anxiety, depression, and issues within the home. I have worked within the Mental Health field for 10 years as a DSP, PC, CLS, CA, SE, and now as a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate. I am currently contracted with Sunrise Professional Counseling Services in Paris, Ky.

I believe that everyone comes to a time in life when they face their own personal “truth in the room”. This can be as simple as private self-reflection or as complicated as trying to save a relationship or marriage. Maybe you have a child who is out of control or a sibling who suffers from substance abuse. Whatever brings you to therapy, know that it is my goal to partner with you as you work toward personal growth and wellness. Strong individuals are able to have strong relationships and healthy lives with meaning and purpose. My ideal client is one who is ready to explore "who they are and to do it on purpose".
