I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and my main focus is helping minors and adults address problematic sexual behaviors, men’s issues, and the unique experiences of those who identify as LGBTQ+.

Hi! I am so glad you are here! Life can feel heavy sometimes, whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, grief, addiction, trauma, or simply feeling like you've lost yourself along the way. You don't have to carry it all alone. With over 11 years of experience, I work with adults, seniors, couples, and families to create a space where you can slow down, feel genuinely heard, and begin moving toward the life you want. My goal is to help you find clarity, reconnect with your strengths, and remember that healing is possible.
I’m passionate about facilitating your individual success. I strongly believe in collaboration and partnering to achieve your personal goals. I believe that you are the expert in your life and my role is to facilitate putting the puzzle together. My overall style is warm and compassionate.
My passion is helping women to regain a feeling of control and authorship in their lives.

I'm a licensed psychologist with over 15 years of experience.
Your Story. Your Purpose. Your Identity. Healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about uncovering who you've always been. Life has a way of shaping us. Painful experiences, trauma, loss, relationships, and fear can leave us carrying beliefs and protective patterns that once helped us survive, but now no longer serve us. Together, we'll explore your story, heal unresolved wounds, challenge limiting beliefs, and reconnect with the authentic identity that's been there all along.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you
Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA+ Therapist in Huntsville
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Huntsville starts with identity-affirming care. The right therapist may have experience with LGBTQIA+ concerns, identity exploration, gender identity, relationship stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare options, look for therapists who list affirmative therapy, WPATH training, gender-diverse experience, or LGBTQIA+-affirming care in their profile. These details can help you find someone whose training and listed specialties match what you want from care.
Huntsville has a steady mental health care community, but affirming therapists may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still connecting you with therapists licensed in Alabama. You may want to compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Read each bio for clear mentions of LGBTQIA+ populations, communication style, and approach to care before you book.
Therapy in Huntsville can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, show estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and offer direct scheduling. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book when you’re ready.
