Life throwing curveballs and leaving you lost? I’ve been there. Having moved 19 times and worked with people facing everything from trauma to perinatal struggles, I know how overwhelming it can be. You deserve to be seen and heard—no exceptions. Let’s sift through the chaos and get you grounded. Together, we’ll cut through the noise and get you unstuck. Whether you're a veteran, a mom, or just trying to make sense of the madness, we’ll work together to help you thrive. It's time to breathe and move forward.
Life’s challenges may shake you, but they don’t have to define your future. I’m here to help you rewrite your story. As a board-certified clinician licensed in 6 states & featured expert on the Mental Health Television Network, I guide people in reclaiming their strength. With expertise in trauma & perinatal issues, let’s create your next chapter together.
You deserve to be seen, heard, and supported. I’m here to walk with you as you step into the life you’ve envisioned—real, authentic, and without barriers. It’s a privilege to join you on this journey, and my team at Appalachian Counseling Center is here to back you up. Ready to start? Visit wvcounseling.com and let’s take that first step together.
