Healing happens when you feel seen, supported, and empowered to move forward. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, OCD, family conflict, anger management, and cultural & ethnic identity concerns while also helping clients facing depression, trauma, stress, grief, ADHD, relationship challenges, women's issues, physical health concerns, and life transitions. With more than 17 years of experience in mental health, I bring a diverse background that includes private practice, school counseling, and serving as an Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant. These experiences have strengthened my belief that lasting growth happens through meaningful connections—with ourselves, our relationships, and our communities. Whether you're seeking support during a difficult season or looking to create lasting change, I'm committed to meeting you where you are with compassion, respect, and practical guidance.

I spent nearly 5 years working in the substance abuse treatment field, in a variety of different positions, and found my passion for helping people there. I completed my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Troy University in Montgomery. My clinical training for my master’s program began at an intensive inpatient behavioral healthcare facility for children aged 12–18 who were in DHR custody and subsequently in a private practice counseling setting.

I specialize in depression, anxiety, substance abuse and addictions counseling, and trauma counseling. My philosophy of counseling is based around the simple idea that every individual deserves to live a happy, healthy and whole life. A little help in counseling has the potential to go a long way to living happy, healthy, and whole.

Therapist

Virtual • Alabama


I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes that healing happens best in spaces that are safe, honest, and non-judgmental. I work with those who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the effects of trauma.

My approach is collaborative and practical. We will focus on understanding what’s showing up in your life, identifying patterns that may be holding you back, and developing tools you can use in real-world situations. I don’t believe in perfection—I believe in progress.

Clients often describe me as direct, supportive, and easy to talk to. I meet you where you are while also helping you move toward where you want to be. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something different, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Montgomery

Searching for OCD therapists in Montgomery starts with finding a therapist trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder care. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, reassurance seeking, avoidance, and anxiety. Exposure and Response Prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based therapy for OCD, and many people also look for therapists who understand related concerns like panic, depression, trauma, or stress. Since not all therapists who list OCD have ERP training, review each bio for OCD-specific experience, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or other listed approaches that match what you want to work on.

In a mid-size city like Montgomery, you may find a mix of local in-person options and virtual therapists licensed in Alabama. Virtual care can expand your options if appointment times, travel, or office location are part of your search. As you compare therapists for OCD in Montgomery, look beyond specialty alone. Check whether they are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that fit your schedule, and provide a free phone consultation. Therapist profiles can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and whether a therapist describes specific ERP experience rather than general familiarity with OCD.

OCD therapy in Montgomery can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you search therapists who focus on OCD, review their bios, verify insurance, and see estimated costs upfront. From there, you can compare virtual and in-person options, find a therapist who matches your needs and plan, and book directly when you’re ready.
