We all deserve to be seen, to be heard, and to be supported without the fear of judgement. I believe that our life is like a story- comprised of triumphs/hardships, gains/losses, love/pain and more. Often we start to tell ourselves stories about our experiences that can hold us back from reaching our goals and living our authentic lives. As a therapist, I aim to help clients deconstruct the story line that is not supportive to them, and instead start constructing ones for their preferred reality and identity. My foundational belief is that we are separate entities from our problems, and we have strength and resiliency inside us.

Whether I am working with an individual or a couple, I believe in recognizing each client’s unique strengths as they relate to the particular challenges they wish to address. I specialize in helping couples who are unsatisfied with their current level of connection. I believe that a couple's relationship happens outside of the therapy office, so work to give couples the tools needed to improve their relationship in the context of their daily lives. I also provide discernment counseling for couples considering separation or divorce.

Therapy works! Begin the healing process to transform yourself and your relationships. Help your children thrive. Find new purpose together. Working together we can help you on your road to healing, recovery, and happiness. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with couples seeking counseling, parents wanting help with their children and adolescents, and individuals seeking healing from grief, depression, anxiety, addiction, or abuse. In therapy, we work together with your family members to heal, grow, and progress. Therapy works as you open yourself to changes in thought, feeling, and behavior.

I have a passion for helping those who are struggling with navigating through some of life's tough challenges. My goal is to join in on the journey and help you face those tough challenges by developing lifelong coping skills in an environment that is accepting to your individualized needs.

The world is a bit chaotic in 2023! The stress of school, family, relationships, career, finances, and life in general can become overwhelming. Political chaos, religious debate, and what has evolved into an extremely judgmental, shame and blame oriented approach to differences, leaves many people feeling bewildered and unsure of themselves. Sadly, guilt and self-doubt have become much too commonplace. For many, the stress can cause or worsen already existing depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health issues. Alcohol and/or other drug use may begin or become worse, leading to significant self-destructive behavior.

I have over 30 years in the field of counseling specializing in addiction and co-occurring disorders. I also have vast experience with the Military ASAP program as well with other private treatment facilities. I earned my Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Psychology and Counseling from Troy University. I hold the credentials of Licensed Professional Counselor, National Certified Counselor, Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor and Certified Addiction Counselor II.

As a mental health therapist, I believe in empowering clients to become aware of their own healthy/unhealthy thinking and behavior so, in return, they can implement positive lifestyle changes. Collaboration between the client and myself is used to guide the client in redefining their own way of life. Clients should know that this sometimes can be a short or lengthy process but I am willing to walk all the way with them as they develop their new healthy self. Clients should know that they are never alone in this new journey...

Hi. I am a middle-aged married mother of one grown and one smaller child. Our next anniversary will be 10 years for us. We were both married before finding each other, so there is a history of blending families with children. I am a Christian and Jesus is the foundation of my life. Life can be quite challenging. Many times we are facing situations that we are not prepared for or have prior hurts that affect our ability to overcome. When we get into these places it is easy to feel stuck or even blind to what is really going on. It is easy to shut down and isolate out of fear of what others may think.
