Health is "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." To link behavioral risk factors to outcomes so that early interventions can begin, we (Populations and Interventions Teams Company, PITC) address correlated conditions. We strive to make client experiences less complicated but complete, considering the lack of transportation in our rural areas, using evidence-based public health practices and behavioral health practice modalities. We collaborate to achieve treatment goals that would result in improved health outcomes.

Imagine struggling with anxiety, pet loss, or relationship issues and feeling overwhelmed. You need a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express your feelings and feel truly understood. Sometimes, we disconnect from our emotions and bodies while trying to “keep it together,” but our feelings eventually catch up. I can help by showing you how to connect body symptoms to your experiences, which can aid in understanding and managing your emotions better.

The study of psychology to me isn't the study of the mind as most would believe. But rather it's the study of the soul. The word psychology comes from the Greek word 'psyche' (or soul) and 'logos' (or study) which concludes that psychology literally means the study of the soul. As a care specialist I desire to be a holistic care provider embracing both the study of the soul and behavior. I have provided various spiritual and bereavement care and support counseling throughout my career. As a pastor I've utilized my clinical training to help trouble souls.

Starting therapy can feel like the most vulnerable experience you will encounter, especially with someone you have never met. You are not alone in these feelings. I seek to provide you with a safe space that allows you to find passion in your life and remove blocks that are keeping you from thriving. Whether you are working through a break-up that feels unbearable, an eating disorder that seems relentless, substance use dependency, dissociative identity, or trauma experiences that feel uprooting, you do not have to work through this challenging process alone.

Welcome and thank you for taking that first step. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My 10+ years of experience in crisis intervention, hospice care, and mental health have given me an extraordinary appreciation for life. Sometimes we struggle with BIG things, like suicidal thoughts or uncontrolled anxiety, while other times we are just trying to "get through". Regardless of where you are I would love the opportunity to speak to you. I am a Christian, and I respect how important our faith is to our well-being; however, I am happy to work with any and all.

I know that life can be difficult to navigate on your own. You don't need to discern everything by yourself. Friends and family may or may not want to help, but their subjective guidance can only extend so far. It is sometimes necessary to reach out to professionals who can provide their professional empathic, objective guidance. I have been successfully providing counseling since 1994, to people like you, who are struggling with some of Life's many challenges. People are finding it is helpful to seek counseling. I provide both couples counseling, and individual counseling for adults. I assist people to move toward their life goals.
