I specialize in EMDR and mindfulness training, offering clients a dynamic blend of advanced therapeutic modalities and empathic presence.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I earned my master's degree from Campbellsville University in KY. I work with premarital, couples, and marital counseling as well as individuals. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety and depression.
I believe therapy should be real, not stiff. Therapy with me is collaborative, honest, and human. My style is relaxed, warm, direct, and funny when it helps. I work with people navigating grief, life transitions, self-esteem struggles, chronic health diagnosis, complex family dynamics, marital challenges and complicated expectations placed on women. We will sort though what's heavy, challenge the narratives that aren't' serving you and help realize a life that feels more like your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and working towards growth.
Your therapy is not about me, but in today's climate most people want to know the values of their therapist. I bring a commitment to social justice and equality into my work. This perspective helps me create a space where clients feel seen, respected, and understood within the full context of their lives.

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Louisville
Searching for therapists in Louisville starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Some people look for help with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, or work stress. Others want a therapist with training in a specific approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to focus on in therapy.
Louisville has a broad mental health care network across areas like Old Louisville, the Highlands, Downtown, and nearby neighborhoods. That gives you options, while still making it useful to narrow your search by location, appointment availability, and session format. Some people prefer meeting in person near home, work, or school, while others choose virtual therapy for more flexibility. Reading therapist bios can help you understand communication style, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is offered before you book.
Therapy in Louisville can be a significant expense without insurance, so finding a therapist who accepts your plan matters. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected cost before care begins. Headway helps you compare Louisville therapists who are accepting new patients, check your insurance, see estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you are ready.
