Are you a parent, grandparent or guardian raising a child who is experiencing difficulties in life? Do you feel at a loss to help your child right now? Do you want to find a way to help your child with the pain and suffering he or she is going through? Has your child experienced a loss recently? A big transition in life (going to a new school, moving, a divorce in the family, addition of a sibling, loss of a loved one, medical issues in the family, etc.)? Is your child experiencing behavior problems in school or at home? Is he or she acting differently all of a sudden? Is your teen confused and searching for his or her true identity?

We have all been going through so much over the last four years with COVID and world wide traumas. I am a “baby boomer” and a survivor of COVID. I understand the anxiety we all feel with so many unknowns and so much grief and loss. We are all on a journey of recovery. I can help with that journey. I care and have the training and empathy to be a guide towards health. My therapuetic style is holistic: focusing on a mind, body and spiritual connection. I work with my patients to promote positive change; we are partners on the journey. Most of my sessions are online which is very convenient for my patients. I am very good at my job.

Life can be messy and complicated, and finding a therapist to trust and connect with can seem extremely daunting. If you are seeking a retreat from the storms of your life, I would love to help you. I bring my non-judgmental, down-to-earth style to every session, and have a special passion for work with the LGBTQ+ community and people with dual diagnosis, substance use and mental heath.

If you are tired of internal struggles with trying to manage people and the world around you. Are you failing in moving forward ? “Let’s change it together one session at a time.” I am a License Clinical Social Worker Therapist in AR, LA, MS who has worked as a Mental Health Professional for over 12 years. I provide treatment for various mental disorders, including those developed from trauma , infertility and/ or life stressors. My experience in healthcare has enabled success in transforming lives. This is achieved through inner work of individual and family sessions conducted in a tranquil office setting and/or Telehealth.

Healing requires honest care without judgment. In order to provide individualized treatment and support, I will work cooperatively with you to clarify your treatment goals and draw from a variety of methodologies to create a plan that fits your needs. My style is warm, open, encouraging, and direct. I consider myself an active therapist, combining experience, education, creativity, with a realistic and effective approach to treatment. To me, an individual should be treated as a whole, including the mind, the body, and the (soul/self)- whatever that is to them.

I provide holistic and integrative mental health. I believe that therapy offers a unique opportunity for intensive emotional and intellectual growth so that one can be better equipped to lead a more productive and fulfilling life. An individual can begin to consider one's life from a different point of view by attaching new meaning to his/her past, explore new avenues for reaching life goals, decrease painful feelings and increase their ability to cope with life's stressors. I believe in the value of the therapeutic relationship and its influence in creating positive change.

Life is messy at times. I have personal experience with ADHD, anxiety, trauma, depression, blended families, and recovery - I have been in your shoes! Being vulnerable with someone you don't know can feel intimidating. I hope you will take this step as a gift to yourself.

People choose to enter therapy for many reasons, but ultimately the reason for most people is that we want to feel better. Suffering may be an inescapable part of being human, but that's not all there is. When people are given a compassionate space where they can be open and vulnerable, they discover insights and strengths that can help them approach life with a new perspective and make healthy changes.

I would love to help you find a way out of the hole that mental illness can leave us with. Sometimes trauma can leave you speechless with nowhere and no one to turn to.

I started my journey to provide counseling, in hopes of helping those who wanted to make changes, but just couldn't quite put the pieces together.

With a little guidance and support, one day they could reach that light and learn how to live again.
