However, it all begins with a strong, honest, open therapeutic relationship to create change and live more authentically. My expertise, experience, and competence allow me to help clients struggling with a variety of issues, such as trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, or OCD, and facilitate change.

I am currently virtual only -- I am in Birmingham sporadically. Alongside our struggles are our strengths--strengths that could be hidden in the midst of anxiety, depression, relationships, perfectionism, and more. What we need most when we’re struggling is empathy, affirmation, and collaboration--to feel heard, understood, and not alone. Through therapy together, I will establish the nonjudgmental, supportive space you need to explore your challenges, introducing and reminding you of the strength you have to move forward.

When we start seeking out romantic partners, we seek out what is familiar- what we learned from our parents or caregivers. Sometimes our parents gave us great examples of what a future relationship should be like; other times, our parents showed us what to avoid in those relationships. As adults we are continually trying to recreate what feels comfortable in our future relationships based on our past experiences, namely, our childhood environments. Things can go wrong when we have unmet emotional needs from childhood and then project them onto our partner. This can lead to many disappointments and failed expectations.
