It can be difficult to find a therapist you feel you can trust. I strive to make every person feel heard, understood, and respected. You are the expert on yourself. It is my role to listen and help you find your own answers. We will work together to develop the therapeutic skills necessary to propel you forward. I also seek to focus on strengths and positive psychology including using humor, incorporating your spiritual beliefs if desired, encouraging your talents, and strengthening your support network. I love teaching mindfulness practices and CBT skills!

I have extensive experience with mood disorders including anxiety and depression. I can also help you work through behavioral disorders, trauma and relationship issues. I typically use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which teaches you how to change your negative thoughts to live a more positive and happy life. Call my office to schedule at 859-338-0466!

I have specialized training in a number of areas including: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Relaxation Techniques, Mindfulness Meditation, Motivational Interviewing, Parent-Child Interaction Training, Psychological Assessment (ADHD assessments, Diagnostic Interviews, condition specific assessments, personality disorder assessment)

I'm a big believer in combining talk therapy with practical coping skills to help you feel empowered to change your life. I love helping people change their thoughts and behaviors to be more positive and realistic using cognitive behavioral therapy techniques. My goal is to have you leave the first session with at least one small thing that you can do to change your life for the better
