I trained in educational and behavioral psychology and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. In addition to direct treatment services, I am able to provide evaluations with extensive reports to aid in treatment planning.

Being human is hard. It’s messy. And it can feel totally overwhelming at times. However, when we learn to give voice to these inner experiences, they start to become more manageable. We begin to realize the feelings and symptoms we experience aren’t random, they’re telling us something. As your therapist, I can help you learn how to better connect with, understand, and express painful emotions, while also providing tools to help you cope. Through it all, I will offer you compassion, warmth, empathy - maybe even a well timed curse word if necessary. I’ll bring my whole authentic self to the therapy room and invite you to do the same.

Overwhelmed with life? Struggling with things past or present? Things going well and you just want to check in with someone to ensure you aren't self-sabotaging? You have stopped on the right profile. I have 13+ years of experience working with a multitude of issues/needs. My main focus is with Grief, Loss and Recovery, which encompasses a wide variety of experiences. My philosophy is that your brain is going to go where it needs to go for the healing process, and I work within this process for the therapeutic experience.

Calling to make a therapy appointment and then walking into a counseling office for the first time are two of the hardest things for a person to do. It takes courage even to come this far. You have what it takes to complete the journey. (note: I can return email inquiries faster than phone calls)

After retiring from the military with over 21 years in service, I completed my undergraduate and graduate degrees in Social Work at the University of Tennessee Knoxville.

Are you or your child needing guidance in expressing your FEELINGS and EMOTIONS appropriately? Does your child prefer an alternative approach utilizing ART and PLAY therapy? Do you or someone you know need help in making challenging decisions while being in alignment with your FAITH? Would you like to talk to someone who is CALM and NON-JUDGMENTAL? Have you or someone you know been dealing with issues of GRIEF and need someone to listen and help you navigate through the grief process?

Many people struggle with the intense emotions and devastating effects from trauma but feel intimidated to seek out therapy. Often they have bottled up their feelings and the knowledge of their trauma so that even their family and friends are ignorant to what they have experienced. They instead suffer in silence, trying to cope the best they can. Too often they try to numb their pain. They often know they need to process their trauma and are yearning for help to address the painful effects of trauma such as anxiety and crippling depression. Yet, the thought of such an endeavor can seem scary and daunting.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the circumstances of your life? Maybe you are pregnant or a new mom, feeling overwhelmed by all of the changes that have come your way. You might also find yourself struggling with a life transition, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, your relationship or something in your life just feels "off." In a world where everyone expects you to put on a happy face & carry on, you feel like you're empty inside. You want to be able to handle anything that life throws your way, but you don't know where to start. Your confidence is crushed & you feel like you've lost your voice. You want to feel seen & empowered.

Life can be incredibly challenging and isolating. During the daily struggle, we forget that we need validation and support to keep pressing forward. We also do not realize how our past experiences affect our functioning. Sometimes we need external support as well as a compassionate, supportive approach to help us endure and overcome hardships. Regardless of what you're experiencing, you need safe people. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, or substance use, I would like to support you in your journey and provide that safety.

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you have made the right choice by being here.
