Therapists in Lafayette County, MS

“Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.“—Arthur Ashe This is my approach to helping clients. We all face difficulties in life and there is no universal “normal.” I have personally been through difficult life experiences, such as abuse, divorce, and single parenthood, but also have experienced healing. My approach is to help clients discover what they have within themselves and how they can find their own “normal.” Sometimes it just takes an objective ear, raw honesty, and different perspective to discover the power within us.

Life’s journey is influenced by your experiences. Some experiences are difficult and leave you feeling unbalanced and disconnected. Injuries sustained from relationships and events can create feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, loneliness and rejection. Seeking help is the first step toward finding your sense of balance and connection. Every individual has the ability within themselves to achieve the balance that they need for their lives. It is my goal as a counselor to assist you with the navigation of this journey.

I am currently working with all ages of clients and enjoy every developmental stage of life, however I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults. I have a good deal of clinical experience in treating clients with symptoms of anxiety, depression, and anger issues. I've worked with many children whose parents are going through divorce or separation and the many issues which stem from such a family disruption. Another client population that I frequently see is gay and lesbian individuals of all ages.

Hello all! I strive to provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals to explore their emotions, overcome challenges, and build fulfilling lives. My approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and evidence-based techniques. I believe therapy provides us with the opportunity to introspect through a lens of curiosity and acceptance, as opposed to shame or judgment. Together, let’s embark on a journey of healing, self-discovery, and empowerment. Learn to be proud of proud of who you are, not who you think you should be. Kick off your shoes, get comfortable, and find your voice!

My practice provides both psychotherapy and psychological assessment to adults, with psychological assessment for children. My approach to psychotherapy is cognitive-behavioral and humanistic. That’s a brief way of stating that I focus on the impact of people’s thoughts and behaviors in the problems they experience, while attempting to provide a safe and empathic setting to find different approaches in coping. Approaches supported by research are utilized when available. Finally, an important part of treatment occurs between sessions. Therefore, I encourage clients to practice certain behaviors or thoughts between sessions and read material helpful in understanding and addressing problems.

I have a wide range of clients that I enjoy working with. I am trained in EMDR, which is a trauma-focused therapy. I really enjoy seeing clients heal their past traumas and find new growth in their life. I am also trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and really enjoy utilizing this model with couples. I am also an equine therapist.

Maya Angelou said, “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you." I feel one of the bravest things you can ever do is the work of understanding your own story. Because of that, I'm passionate about helping you find freedom and growth by rewriting the parts of your story that have left you with a negative self-image. I believe therapy is collaborative, and together, we can work to heal the scars preventing you from living your full potential. Our relationship is a safe space to explore deep pain, shame, and trauma. Understanding our stories deepens and reshapes our lives, and I can’t wait to hear yours!

What happened? You've been through something, something painful. Yesterday, last week, or years ago - it doesn't matter. You're having trouble now, and it's time to talk it through. You're down and not motivated. You're not sleeping well and wake up in a panic. You're thinking about the same things over and over without solving anything. You're doing the same things over and over again with the same unsatisfactory results. We've all been there - I have. I know how helpful therapy can be.

Counseling is about establishing a safe and trusting relationship wherein the client feels comfortable speaking about and exploring the unknown or the scary, practicing communication skills, and realizing their own strengths and potential - assets which they can then utilize to overcome any of life’s challenges and stressors. Over the last few years, I’ve worked with individuals of all ages and families with vastly different backgrounds, needs, strengths, diagnoses, and goals to become their best selves. I believe anyone and everyone is capable of enhancing their wellness and living a life they find enjoyable and full of meaning.

I believe that everything we need in order to heal is within our internal reach. Sometimes we can access this healing on our own, and sometimes we need supportive, non-biased accompaniment so we can go deeper into our healing processes. Consider me your attentive support person. I look forward to working with you.

Are you feeling overwhelmed with life? Sometimes in our journey we find ourselves feeling trapped with no one to turn to and no solutions in sight. I work with adult individuals and couples trying to improve themselves and their relationships with others. I am passionate about helping you become the best version of yourself. My training as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, along with many of the same life experiences, enables me to assist you in sorting out problems and issues you feel you would like to work on and improve.
