Therapists in Mississippi

I enjoy working with a wide range of clients who have unique needs and diverse backgrounds. My clients often struggle with depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and substance abuse. I am especially familiar with opioid abuse and the use of medication-assisted treatment (MAT). I also have experience working with the elderly and their family. My work includes educating their families and caregivers about dementia and how to use various interventions to ease the pain of this disease. I remind their caregivers how to take care of themselves as well.

Life can be hard sometimes. We experience things that are often difficult to put into words and shoulder burdens that are much too heavy to bear alone. I want to make the process of counseling approachable and meaningful. Counseling can be thought-provoking, enlightening, and even fun. It is a time for laughing, a time for crying, and a time for expression and reflection. Above all, counseling sessions are YOUR time for which I pledge my undivided attention. You can dump the “pieces of the puzzle” out on the table, and we can figure this out together.

Living life is manageable with a willing and understanding approach to guide perspectives for eventual outlets, balance or peace within.
