I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 25 years of experience working with children, single parents, families, spouses, active-duty service members, veterans, and individuals experiencing homelessness. From my learnings and experience, I have helped clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, anger, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)/trauma, substance abuse, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). I also counsel people who have experienced physical and emotional abuse. I am a Master Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP).
I earned my first Master’s in Human Relations at the University of Oklahoma and my second in Mental Health Counseling at Argosy University. I combine humanistic, holistic, and spiritual therapies along with solution-focused brief therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, cognitive restructuring, narrative therapy, and motivational interviewing.
I adapt the treatment plan to meet each client’s unique and specific needs. My compassion and empathy help my clients feel safe and understood. It takes courage to seek help and create a happier, more productive life. If you are ready to take the first step, I invite you to schedule an appointment with me today.
