Therapists in Mississippi

My primary role as your counselor is to focus on the relationship with you.. Your wellbeing is the main focus of the therapeutic relationship. While providing you a safe and confidential environment, I will be with you every step of the way on your journey toward healing and self discovery.

I have a wealth of professional and personal experience working with a diverse population. This includes individuals, couples, families and children of all ages.

I am passionate about helping clients find a path to greater joy, freedom, and satisfaction in their lives. In therapy, this happens when we become more aware of our emotional responses, our thought habits, and how they work together to help us make sense of our experiences. I combine approaches, such as emotionally focused and cognitive work, solutions orientation, development of more effective coping skills, mindfulness, and an emphasis on following my client's lead in becoming more of whom he or she was made to be. It is truly a privilege to witness clients' movement toward freedom from depression, anxiety, relational conflict, and chaos.
