Adjusting to life changes can be hard to do on your own. Whether it is work stress, relationship challenges, or finding your new normal after trauma, I am here to help. Working with trauma survivors and the families of survivors is a passion of mine. Stress and trauma can have a debilitating effect on a person's physical and mental well being, causing them to feel unable to cultivate the lifestyle they wish to achieve. I can help give you the tools needed to bring mental stability into your day to day life.
I got my undergraduate degree from Maryville College in Psychology and Criminal Justice. I hold a masters in clinical mental health with a concentration in trauma from Sam Houston State University. My therapeutic approach integrates person-centered therapy along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Internal Family Systems techniques.
Reaching out is the hardest step to take. If you are struggling with managing day-to-day stressors, please feel free to reach out. I offer a free initial consultation to discuss how I might be able to support you on your journey. You are not alone in this battle.

I work with clients struggling with anxiety and depression after a stressful life event or trauma. During our sessions, we can explore the deeper meanings behind the feelings that seem to take over. The act of talking about what happened is the hardest and most beneficial part of healing. We will also work on obtaining skills that will help you feel confident when faced with strong emotions.

Therapy is not one size fits all. I use a combination of Person Centered therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Integration Training (AAIT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). We can work together to find what works for you. I believe that one of the most important aspects of therapy is building a positive therapeutic relationship.
