I believe healing is a personal journey, and no two paths look the same. My role is to walk alongside you with compassion, support, and practical guidance as you navigate life's challenges, reconnect with yourself, and create lasting, meaningful change. I work with adults through various seasons of change including midlife, pressures of the sandwich generation, dealing with trauma, and relationship/communication challenges, anxiety and depression. I believe these seasons, while often difficult, can also become opportunities for healing, growth, and discovering a renewed sense of purpose.

I enjoy working with individuals and families as well as children and adolescents. I collaborate with clients to identify their strengths and the areas where they wish to grow or change. I offer a safe and supportive environment for clients to process their emotions and be seen, heard, and validated. Ultimately, I strive to empower and challenge clients to create meaningful change and live wholehearted lives.

As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), I am passionate about helping people move beyond simply surviving and begin thriving! I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen, supported, challenged, empowered to create meaningful change in your life, and did I say feel seen?! :-)

I bring knowledge and experience from over three decades in both public mental health settings and private practice and over twenty years teaching psychology and human development. I'm here to support you on your journey to well-being and look forward to working together. I have special sensitivity for neurodivergence, including issues unique to 2E.

I am unable to take new clients at this time. Existing clients, please reach out to me directly for any scheduling needs. Thank you!

I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Alabama with experience collaborating with people of all ages to identify values, strengths, and needs, and to help empower them to live their best lives, whatever that looks like for them. I love working with people from all walks of life, and I specialize in LGBTQ+ health, life after trauma, and those living with low income, disability, and other barriers.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have been licensed for 24 years and have worked with children and adults in Community Mental Health settings, parenting programs, Child Protective Services and drug education. I use person-centered, behavior therapy, thought changing, unconditional positive regard, solution-focused and reality therapy to name a few. I have worked with ADHD, OCD, grief issues, trauma and abuse, and mental illness.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and I am honest, direct, and passionate about helping people connect to their values and make positive change in their lives.

I believe that our environment, our physical health, and our mental health are intimately linked. I take a whole person approach to counseling where we will address multiple aspects of your health and functioning in order to improve your mental health. An important part of my approach is helping you to broaden your awareness and build insight into how your thoughts, behaviors, and emotions interact and may be keeping you stuck in unhealthy cycles. I also work with my clients on values identification to help guide us in developing practical steps to get you unstuck and moving forward in life in a meaningful way. My main treatment modalities are cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy.

I have experience working in inpatient, partial hospitalization, and outpatient clinical settings and I have a special interest in working with individuals struggling with anxiety, OCD, eating disorders, mood disorders, sport/performance and general life difficulties (relationship conflict, job/career changes, managing stress).

I have been in the counseling field for 28 years. During that time I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults. I have both a master's and educational Specialist degrees from the University of Alabama. I am drawn to work with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression and life's transitions.

When you've been carrying anxiety, relationship stress, or the pressure of holding everything together for so long, it can start to feel like you're simply surviving instead of truly living. You may be showing up for everyone else while quietly wondering when you'll have the chance to take care of yourself. You deserve a space where you can let your guard down and be met with compassion instead of judgment. I provide virtual therapy for adults throughout Alabama, helping people navigate anxiety, depression, stress management, and relationship issues while also supporting family concerns, grief and loss, and women's issues that often become part of the same journey. My goal is to create a welcoming environment where you feel genuinely heard, reconnect with your strengths, and begin building a life that feels more peaceful, balanced, and fulfilling.
