I am a licensed therapist and certified health coach. I've had the fortunate opportunity of working with many different types of people throughout my career. Working on social work and public health research projects helped me realize I enjoy working with patients who struggle with mental health and chronic disease diagnoses. I obtained my Master's in Social Work degree from East Carolina University in 2011 and began practicing psychotherapy. Taking the first step toward treatment isn't easy. But since you are already here, take the second step to schedule an appointment...you'll be glad you did!

I specialize in couples therapy and love what I do. Life circumstances facilitated my desire to become a couples therapist in early adolescence. I graduated from The University of Iowa with Honors in Psychology and completed my graduate degree from Northern Illinois University. My desire has always been working with couples and that passion remains today. I have been in practice for over 20 years, specializing in helping couples who are burdened by wanting to make their relationship work, but are uncertain of the tools and where to start.

What if you could reboot your mental script, declutter your thoughts, and unveil the 'you' that's been sidelined? No BS. Just honest conversations.

However, with compassionate and unbiased assistance, virtual therapy offers the advantage of flexibility and accessibility, allowing you to prioritize your mental well-being on your own terms. I'm here to support you in exploring what truly suits you as you embark on your path toward self-awareness, personal development, and a more fulfilling life. Ready for step one?

The difference between a successful person and one who isn’t can simply be a function of having a personalized treatment plan or blueprint. My focus is on you and what I can do to assist you, to get you to where you want to be in life. If you don’t have a life blueprint based on your unique goals, talents and desires, then you may be missing out on some of the blessing life may have in store for you. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment for you to uncover solutions, and pave the road to your happiness and dream fulfillment.

As a Christian Therapist, I help Christian women and girls ages 13+ with challenges related to anxiety, depression, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD, rejection, guilt, shame, self-worth, and stress. Also, I support women who are struggling with issues related to infidelity and divorce. I believe self-care post-divorce is so important. My approach is non-judgmental, safe, and caring which are essential to the healing process of moving forward. Individuals DO NOT have to be Christian. Christian views are not forced on individuals. I want women to know they matter too. Peace, hope, and healing are essential to living your great life.

I enjoy working with adolescents and adults who are going through transition/change, need extra support, or are dealing with on-going struggles. I see therapy as collaborative between therapist and client. I strive to get to know clients on an individual level including your strengths, challenges, goals, and beliefs. My goal is to help you identify aspects of your life that you would like to change and help you to use the strengths you already possess to reach your life goals. I find that clients appreciate that I am compassionate but direct.

As a therapist, I focus on identifying each person’s individual strengths and on helping find ways to use these strengths to work toward a solution. I believe it is important that we work as a team to determine what is important to you. Counseling creates a safe space to explore how your thoughts and behaviors impact your mood. As we focus on what matters most to you, we will collaborate on determining therapy goals.

I specialize in helping adults negotiate turning points and transitions. These turning points are the critical experiences making our lives' narratives uniquely ours.

My work focuses on making meaning of these transitions and the stressors that often accompany them. Some of my specific areas of practice include work and career issues, relationship concerns, and stress and stress management.
