Often times we become so overwhelmed with our circumstances, that we feel down about ourselves or we allow fear to block us from our full potential. I have 20+ years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, elderly, and their loved ones. My therapeutic techniques are individually tailored to each client's needs, preferences, and strengths in order to build awareness, mindfulness, and success in attaining individual goals--whatever those may be! I am committed to helping you identify and understand your personal obstacles and together we will enact a plan to get you on the path to your best possible self.

I believe the counseling relationship is a powerful tool for learning to to be kinder and more generous with ourselves. I understand that many of us come from environments, past or present, that tell us we do not "deserve" safety, love, acceptance, or belonging, and sometimes this keeps us at a remove from our communities and loved ones. In my practice, I collaborate with clients to create a safe, shame-free place for moving through and beyond these messages—a place where it is possible to experiment with vulnerability while searching for the most authentic and empowered version of the client's life.

With experience as a therapist since 2010, I have had the opportunity to work with a wide array of clients through community mental health. I've been able to gain experience treating variety of mental health concerns including treating individuals with anxiety, depression, challenging family dynamics, trauma, and children with behavioral issues. After working as a Program Coordinator managing a team of therapists and paraprofessionals, I am excited to be established in private practice at NWA Therapy so I can facilitate counseling in a way that helps me tap into all the skills I have developed so far in my career.

The connection between our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors can profoundly shape our experiences and responses—sometimes leading us to feel overwhelmed and stuck. If you find yourself in a season of mental exhaustion due to unproductive thought patterns holding you back from fully engaging in life, pursuing opportunities, or nurturing your relationships, please know that there is hope, and change is possible! As an LPC with over a decade of experience, I am dedicated to supporting individuals struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, perinatal mental health, life transitions, and the establishment of healthy boundaries.

You are not the problem, the Problem is the problem. While stress, conflict and even sadness are to be expected on occasion, they are not meant to be the ruling elements in your life. Many people respond to current situations based on past experience; positive or not. If you’ve experienced trauma (emotional, physical, sexual and/or racial) or chronic illness it tends to affect how you react to stress. It may cause you to be paralyzed, unable to complete a simple task. Do you desire a future where the past no longer rules today? A future where you are free to make the best choice for you giving you a contented and hopeful life?
