Since graduating with my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2016, I have been fortunate enough to counsel hundreds of strong, determined individuals. Every single one of them has had one thing in common: something happened that altered the course of their life; whether it be death of a loved one, diagnosis of terminal illness, abuse, neglect, tragedy, or another source of trauma, it has impacted their ability to manage moods and emotions as they did before.

Currently accepting new clients. Modern life can be a complicated and frightening thing. Daily there are news reports of catastrophes, rising economic problems, war, disasters, and the trials of every day living. Continuing issues from the pandemic, with teens and many adults feeling isolated due to the feelings of loss associated with it. Fear of the unknown, and concerns over modern life. Feeling as though you are alone, depressed, and anxious in a ever fast paced world. But hope still exists, it helps you to thrive in this modern world as opposed to just surviving. Hope is there waiting for you to find it, and help you through.

Being a young person today is hard! Navigating pressures at home and school while balancing a social life can feel overwhelming at times. Often, young people have trouble making sense of their world, figuring out where they "fit", and managing their behavior and emotions. They may act out, withdraw from others, or make questionable choices. My focus involves supporting and educating young people and their families so they can manage intense feelings and communicate more effectively. We will pay special attention to developing coping and problem-solving skills while learning how thoughts, feelings, and actions are related.

We, as human beings, share common ground in that living is full of both joys and sorrows, challenges and changes. Sometimes things happen in life that you would have preferred not happen. As a result, you may feel scared and confused, either because of the events themselves or perhaps because of how you view these events.

I am a WV native and have been working with children/adolescents/adults for over 17 years. Helping others is my passion. I am an advocate for the families receiving my services. I am a graduate of West Virginia State University with a B.A. in Psychology and Liberty University with an M.A. Professional Counseling. I am trained in EMDR therapy, which is a model of therapy used to treat trauma and other disorders. I am currently taking courses in American Sign Language and hope to eventually offer services to the deaf community. If I may leave one thought with you it is that what I do is a PASSION and not a POSITION. Take care

I can help people move through the deep sadness that accompanies family conflicts, grief , emotional problems and transitions.
As a therapist, I see my role as one of helping you change the things you want to change, teaching you some ways to do this and helping explore your life. Old ways can be changed, new ways can be learned. Looking at the way you think about you and your individual experiences, using methods such as CBT and alternative techniques, is part of my therapy work. I am not married to one particular style, but to what works and is effective for you as an individual. I work iprimarily ndividually, amd with some couples. I see teens who are over 17. I am easy to talk to.

I specialize in working with folks who struggle with relationships, anxiety, self-esteem, grief , and problematic behaviors.
Most of my clients come to me stressed out, overworked, depleted, trying to please too many people, or trying to be what others want them to be, leaving them sad, lonely, angry, resentful, and unfulfilled. They ask themselves questions like, "How did I get here?" "Why does this keep happening?" "What am I doing wrong?" "Why isn't this getting any better?" "How do I get him/her/them to listen?" They often think something external will make them happy or resolve the pain. They may want to understand themselves more, resolve trauma or issues, and/or acquire new skills that help them improve their life, relationships, and well-being.

Dealing with loss is an area of speciality that grew out of my personal experiences with loss .
It's time to take the mask off. Society has a way of honoring being pushed to the limit. Whether we are navigating building a family, dealing with the loss of a loved one, or seeking to manage a work-life balance, we are taught to keep stretching ourselves beyond our limits. As a strengths-based counselor I work with individuals to identify skills and strengths currently in use to enhance emotional, physical, social, intellectual, and spiritual wellness.

Grief Therapists

How long does therapy take for grief?

There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.

When should you seek therapy for grief?

Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.

Can grief be managed without therapy?

Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.

What happens if grief is left untreated?

Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
