Welcome to my practice. Choosing to begin therapy is a courageous step, and I’m glad you’re here. Reaching out for support isn’t always easy—but you don’t have to do this alone. I offer a safe, compassionate space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported as we work together toward meaningful change. Life’s challenges—past or present—can feel heavy and overwhelming. Therapy is a place to slow down, gain clarity, and reconnect with your strengths. Together, we’ll focus on building a future that feels more balanced, hopeful, and aligned with who you want to be—one where your past does not limit your possibilities.

Life can be good, filled with highs and lows. However, when those lows hit, having therapeutic techniques at your disposal can help manage the most seemingly unmanageable difficulties. During my doctoral Internship in pediatric and adult behavioral health at Irby Psychological Services, LLC, in Southaven, MS, I specialized in comprehensive psychological testing of neurodevelopmental disorders and intellectual disabilities, as well as related comorbidities, in addition to behavior-based individual and family therapy.
