Therapists in Huntsville, AL

I am Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed by the Alabama Board of Examiners in Counseling. I earned my B.S. in Psychology from Athens State and M.A. in Community Counseling from University of North Alabama. Prior to private practice, I worked at Riverbend Center for Mental Health, Bradford Health Services, and Alabama Psychiatric Services. I also worked as a missionary in the 9th Ward of New Orleans for 5 years and in Bangkok, Thailand for 9 years. I have a strong passion to work with those who have struggled with addiction or have been impacted by addiction. I have training and experience working with trauma, PTSD, and anger.

I help people by listening to what they want from counseling, incorporating their values and Christian values to determine goals. Treatment plans are behavioral and specific using cognitive emotional reframing to achieve positive attitudes. Supportive encouraging confidential responses focus on the person's current and longer term situations. Goals are determined by assessing symptoms and circumstances using Biblical principals. Prayer is included as desired.

I believe and work from the viewpoint that all individuals and family units have the strength and ability within themselves to approach whatever may come their way and find a solution to address their issues. It is my responsibility to help the individual or family unit to see those strengths and abilities and approach them from both a Christian and systemic viewpoint. I work with children of all ages up to those of a Senior age.

My approach to therapy utilizes an integrative blend of counseling theory to provide specialized services to a wide variety of patients and patient issues. My goal in therapy is to work in an equal and collaborative relationship with patients to reach his or her goals through empathy, respect, genuineness, and a little humor. I strive to assist patients to work towards identifying challenges or conflicts as well as to find meaning and purpose in life.
