I am a trauma-informed Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 13 years of experience. I have worked with populations including children and seniors and focus on using interventions for somatic recovery and cognitive reframing. I treat anxiety, stress, mood disorders, existential crises, ADHD, women’s issues, and self-esteem. I have experience in crisis management, substance use, and general mental health settings. I create a nonjudgmental atmosphere to help clients identify triggers and uncover root causes, providing validating listening and referrals to other professionals when needed.
I received my Master’s in Social Work from East Tennessee State University.
I use cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, exposure response prevention, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, polyvagal theory, and internal family systems.
We are all working together to make this world safe, healthy, and fun. I feel humbled to meet people in one of the most vulnerable areas of their lives. I have witnessed people's ability to heal from traumatic events and have seen individuals gain a better understanding of their mental and medical health. Reach out today!
