400 Office Park Drive Mountain Brook, AL 35223
I specialize in working with people who are in life transitions specifically: college students, people searching for their first job or changing jobs/careers, people who are seeking to deepen their relationships (dating, engaged and married), parents looking for support and guidance and couples in their empty nest stage of life.
I help young adults, busy professionals, couples of all ages and families who are ready to make real, lasting change. If you’re feeling stuck in self doubt, anxiety, grief or relationship conflict, I can help you identify the thoughts and patterns that are holding you back.
Therapy can be more than talking- it’s about setting goals, gaining insight, building self awareness, finding solutions, learning skills and building the kind of relationships and life that feel authentic and fulfilling. Every person has the capacity for growth and healing. If you’re ready to do the work, please call me to see if we are a good fit!

I have a passion for providing pre-engagement, pre-marital and marital counseling using evidenced based tools. My focus is on deepening connection through identifying couples' unique needs, strengths and communication patterns. This results in each person having a greater understanding of themselves and their partner which leads to developing more effective coping and conflict resolution skills.
