I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate in Social Work, and I bring both clinical expertise and real life understanding into the therapy space. My professional background includes years of direct clinical practice as well as leadership roles in complex, high stress systems, including serving as a Mental Health Director. These experiences have shaped my ability to support individuals who are navigating pressure, responsibility, and emotional overwhelm while still being expected to function at a high level.

I work best with clients who are strong on the outside but struggling internally. Many of the people I support are women, mothers, professionals, caregivers, and helpers who are used to showing up for others while neglecting their own emotional needs. I have a particular passion for working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, burnout, life transitions, relationship stress, identity concerns, and trauma related to past or ongoing stressors.

Therapy with me is not about having all the answers. It is about learning how to trust yourself, set healthy boundaries, and show up for your life with more compassion and confidence.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Montgomery

Finding couples therapists in Montgomery starts with identifying what you want to work on together. Couples therapy can support communication challenges, conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, major life changes, and parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have the same couples training, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists, marriage counselors, or therapists who list approaches like the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy. Reading each profile can help you see whether their experience matches the kind of relationship counseling you want.

In a mid-size city like Montgomery, it helps to compare both local office options and virtual appointments. Some couples prefer meeting in person, while others need virtual sessions that fit two schedules. When narrowing your search for couples counseling in Montgomery, AL, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a brief consultation before the first session. Provider bios can also show how a therapist structures sessions, works with both partners, and approaches marriage counseling or relationship concerns.

Couples therapy in Montgomery can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can search therapists in Montgomery, AL who offer couples therapy, review their specialties and availability, and book directly when you find someone who matches your needs, schedule, and insurance plan.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
