Hi. Let me introduce myself. I earned my MSW from Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical University, and I practice a strength based, holistic approach to therapy by using a variety of theories and techniques based on each individual's personality and needs. It is my firm belief that everyone possesses the natural ability to reach their most evolved and emotionally intelligent self.
I facilitate recovery, balance and a sense of clarity for those struggling to regulate their emotions and selfesteem, focusing on issues of trauma, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, attachment difficulties, relationship and family issues. I encourage you to take a step of faith in connecting with me to find support for yourself! I’m excited to meet you.

In our first session we will spend some time getting to know each other, and making sure that the therapeutic relationship works for you. I also be asking you some questions to figure out what caused you to seek out therapy, what your expectations of success are. The first session will have lots of questions, and may look very different from any additional sessions, which may include homework.

Just so you know, I know all about the technical stuff, but I like therapy to be fun and creative, even if we just talk and vibe! I believe there can be healing found in music , poetry , creative arts etc.. Take a look at the rest of my profile, but please know that I am a one of a kind Therapist who will keep it 100 percent real, while holding space, and helping you heal in creative methods!
