Therapists Beginning With S in Mississippi

I offer short-term, solution-focused therapy. My clients are successful people whom I respect and admire. Like in other areas of their lives when an issue occurs, they want answers and a course of action. Providing for others, they have often put aside their own needs. Their work and personal relationships are intertwined. Talking about how to move forward can be a timeout when one can determine the next steps. Hearing yourself talk aloud about what has been on your mind and heart may give clarity in differentiating between want and need. I encourage clients to gift themselves with time aside.

My ideal client seeks self-exploration & understanding, facing issues like anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties. They need a supportive space for personal growth, aiming to gain insight, develop coping strategies, improve communication, & foster healthy relationships. They aspire to enhance mental well-being, achieve a better life quality, & unlock their full potential.

I hope to work with individuals who are ready to get started on their own journey. We will work together on issues that are important and meaningful in your life. Sometimes we experience times in life where depression, anxiety, overwhelming emotions, trauma, grief or difficult situations get in the way of moving forward. Together we will explore incorporating coping skills, self-compassion, and healing into your life in order to meet your individual goals.

I love Mississippi and I love meeting the people who live here. I believe everyone has a story and I consider it an honor to be in a position to hear those stories. I come from a Christian perspective and the interventions I use are congruent with my beliefs and values. The primary interventions I use are from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), and other proven family therapy models. I do not impose my personal beliefs and values onto my clients. This process is about you, not me.

My strengths as a counselor include my ability to be authentic, share warmth, cultivate wisdom, and build connections. My therapeutic lens is person centered, existential, and behavioral; I can speak with insight and clarity to your essential questions about who you have been, who you are, and what you should do. I seek to partner with you in a process of discovery and productive therapeutic work. I find that sometimes the most important counseling goals emerge as sessions get underway and trust and rapport are built. The most important goals may be surprising and even liberating.

Working with those who struggle to overcome the trauma of abusive relationships has been my life dream. However, trauma comes in many forms and leaves ugly scars that wreck havoc on our lives, but it does not have to control our lives. We can be overcomers! Working from a Mindfulness/CBT and person centered perspective allows us change the way we think about our past and regain control of our future.

I assist clients (neurotypical, neurodivergent, and neurodiverse) to achieve goals and make adjustments in their life that allow them to be their best self. Most clients’ desire to improve, however, don't fully have the necessary tools to make this goal a reality. Typically, they feel stuck, overwhelmed, and have mixed emotions regarding their situation. Many clients need assistance and guidance in managing and coping with various live changes. I provide clients with an opportunity to be supported in a safe environment where their thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment that utilizes integrative interventions.

Are you or your spouse having an affair? I have 20+ years of experience helping marriages and individuals successfully navigate and survive an affair. I often witness marriages becoming stronger after our work together. Yours can too.

Doctors refer their patients because they say they know my techniques work. If you have questions please call or email. There's no need to put off getting the help you need. The sooner you get started, the sooner you'll feel good about yourself - and life - again.

I am committed to a holistic and integrated approach. This includes being sensitive to how lifestyle choices, medical conditions, and personal values impact how you live in the world. My approach to therapy is client driven and often "two heads are better than one" when seeking solutions to problems. In life things can unexpectedly occur, or life can become stressful. Are you struggling to manage anxiety? Do you feel sad and depressed and you not sure why? Do you need emotional support or advice navigating life? I am here to listen and offer objective feedback and advice.

Life can be overwhelming. We face transitions that are difficult and uncertain. We can feel we do not matter and are not needed at times. We yearn for someone to hear us and see us. The moments in your life that seem hard to cope with can become more manageable with the help of a team. Counselors are there to help when life seems like a heavy burden. They can walk alongside you as you experience transitions and face challenges. Serving in my community as a work colleague, school volunteer, and civic organizer for over twenty-five years, I am prepared to help others through the experiences I have faced.

I have worked in the field of counseling for approximately 30 years, working in a variety of settings - inpatient, outpatient, acute care, Intensive outpatient, and residential treatment.

Learning how to implement coping strategies in situations can alter the clients perspective in seeing opportunities for growth and self-efficacy.
