Do you ever feel like your choices are limited and like your movement towards growth is stunted? Therapy provides the opportunity to tap into the wisdom of how to live a more fulfilling life that is hidden within all of us, but at times feels out of reach. My work is to facilitate deep exploration of who you are, your needs, what propels you towards change, and what shapes the choices you make in your life. You can re-write the remaining parts of your life's story because you will have access to the author again: YOU.

My mission is to empower clients with knowledge about themselves and their strengths. Furthermore, I will work clients to help them identify their truth as it relates to their lives. I seek to help clients pull from within themselves the strength needed to persevere and overcome daily life obstacles and struggles. I hope to have clients find their own strength to work through their issues. I aspire for clients to celebrate the small wins and use that to push them to greater gains.

Common reasons people seek my help experience persistent sadness, worry, and fear which handicap their social and personal functioning. Ideally, I help people manage conflicts within their family structure, but often a person's family is not a source of support. I pay careful attention to ensuring people clinch ideal lifespan development milestones. My community also suffers from chronic stress at work and school. I can help adults, but also children and adolescents who traverse bullying and educational problems. My approach focuses on building healthy self-esteem when people lack confidence and promote their self-worth.

Being seen and heard are gifts that a lot of us have not consistently received throughout our lives. Our humanity requires these gifts to experience fullness, wholeness, and a steady sense of self. Ruptures and traumas with society, with others, and with ourselves can be experienced as a result of not being experienced as our full selves or when we are reduced to attributes, parts, or fragments rather than as fully human. At times, we can even begin to believe that this is all we are worth or engage in scrambling to live a life of scarcity not believing we deserve a life of abundance. Our life force, though, knows that we need more.

The fact that you are seeking to connect with a therapist is a sign that you want to begin the journey of self discovery, healing, and transformation. Therapy is a process of self-exploration where you learn why you do what you do, as well as how to change behaviors. By building a therapeutic relationship, I can assist you in becoming reacquainted with your true self. With over 15 years of experience in working with adults, adolescents, families and couples, my approach has always been to meet my clients were they are and to progress at a pace that is comfortable for sustained success.

People start therapy with a desire for change. Something innate reminds them that they could live differently. That feeling is always there; now you are here and ready to listen. My goal is to help you discover yourself, your needs, your desires, and necessary changes. Is there grief that is hard to flow through you? Is it depression that weighs heavily on you, anxiety that overwhelms you, trauma that constantly reminds you, or something that you are afraid to release? We will work to examine and release these challenges, so you can navigate this world in a healthy, fulfilling way, and start living differently.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in Person-Centered therapy in which the relationship between client and clinician is a priority and is based in mutual trust and respect, empathy and congruence. I use integrative techniques in every session to meet the unique needs of each client, such as CBT, trauma-informed therapy and mindfulness-based therapy. I believe that individuals are experts on themselves and because of this I take a collaborative approach in working with clients, utilizing what is known as Feedback Informed Treatment (FIT) to get client input in evaluating progress and clients’ needs.

Life presents us with many unexpected challenges that can leave us feeling hurt, lonely, anxious and stressed. Maybe you are struggling with insecurity, uncertainty or a lack of direction. In times of distress, it can be difficult to share with anyone, let alone someone you’ve never met. Building a relationship is the most important step in the counseling process and hinges on empathy, respect and safety within the therapy office. Healing happens when we feel fully accepted while being vulnerable and authentic. This can only be achieved through a strong therapeutic alliance. In this space, you will be welcomed, heard and supported.

My experience includes service in three community mental health centers in Tennessee and Arkansas, a State Hospital internship and four years as a Staff Psychologist with the Arkansas Department of Correction. I have seen clients from a wide-range of settings with a wide-range of challenging problems.
