My ideal client is someone who is willing and ready to make an active change in their life. As a creative and expressive therapist I work well with clients that are willing to utilize artistic strategies, view things from many perspectives, and use out of the box thinking. Those who wish to have a collaborative, warm, and empathetic therapeutic relationship are a great fit. I tend to work well with clients who struggle with things such as depression, anxiety, burn-out, women’s issues, LGBTQ+ issues, adjustment issues, or interpersonal issues and are prepared to collaboratively design specific and time-oriented goals.

"When we are no longer able to change a situation - we are challenged to change ourselves." Viktor E. Frankl If you find yourself asking why, you are not alone. The journey of life is hard and no matter how hard we try, sometimes we need the support of another on that same journey. My dream has always been to offer Christian-based therapy that does not feel like therapy but instead like hope and healing. I love people, I love to laugh, and I love to do things differently.

It is amazing how our hearts can be beating in our chests and yet we do not feel fully alive. Life, circumstances, relationships, and even our own hearts can seem to work against us in our quest to have meaningful and fulfilling lives. As a trained professional counselor practicing in Arkansas, Arizona, and Missouri, I have been equipped to work with individuals, couples, and families and I have a passion for seeing people live well and find their purpose. I hold a Specialist degree in Psychology and Counseling and a Doctorate in Psychology and Christian Counseling, utilizing professional theories with a faith-based foundation.

From thousands of counselors to choose from, it can feel overwhelming to choose which one fits you the best. I believe counseling can be looked at as the client and counselor walking together through a dark cave. The counselor is not following the client or walking ahead of the client, but, instead, walking beside the client with a lantern, showing them what is written on the walls. By showing the individual what is on the walls, they can then decide for themselves which route they want to take.

I would like to provide a safe place for individuals who are interested in addressing and processing any issues or relationships. Through therapy there is opportunity for growth and life changes.

Life and relationships are hard. We often try to manage it on our own, but sometimes it becomes too much to bear. Our thoughts become distorted and we enter into unhealthy cycles of behavior trying to survive. Making the decision to seek psychotherapy requires one to be both brave and vulnerable at the same time. Reaching out for help takes guts and I am always honored to be a part of someone's journey. You remain in control while I walk along side you as a trained listener who helps you to make sense of your experience and encourages you to make desired changes along the way. Don't remain stuck, keep moving forward.

I love working with teenagers and young adults. These clients need support and guidance as they navigate relationship issues, family difficulties, and transitioning from the teenage years into early adulthood. There are so many challenges faced by individuals during this stage of life, and often they find themselves navigating through this season with little or no support.

“I’ve never felt so comfortable before”, are the words my clients tell me when they sit in my office. That is my favorite compliment to get as a therapist, because comfort and trust are the most important things to feel when looking for someone you can open up to and trust with your inner most thoughts and feelings. My goal is to provide you with an environment that you feel completely comfortable talking about anything and expressing yourself how you see fit with no judgement, shame, guilt, or fear. I want my clients to be able to vent about their past traumas, unresolved life experiences, and interpersonal relationships, etc.

How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
