I am a LPCC with 10 years experience in community mental health, school based services, and private practice.

As a wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, I am passionate about personal growth, both physically and mentally. I find balance through movement, whether it's walking my dogs, hiking, or riding my horses.
I was born in Louisville but shortly after was moved to a small rural town about an hour south as a young child. I was raised by my grandparents due to my own parent’s struggles, which became my motivation for my own life. I have always wanted to be someone that children can talk to or relate to when in need. Life is not easy and that one person in your corner is so important. That is why I am here today advocating for you and advocating for your mental health.
I decided it was so important for me to be successful and be the light for someone in the future. With that, I applied to the University of Louisville with no idea how I was going to pay for college. Many obstacles stood in my way, but I continued on anyway. My college journey was bumpy and was never easy, but I did not let that stop me from reaching what I wanted for my future. I graduated with my Bachelors of Science in Criminal Justice with a Minor in Sociology. However, I did not think that was enough. I continued on for my Masters of Science in Social Work and decided to specialize in School Social Work. This is where my true passion was & what made my fire grow brighter.
So here I am today, doing what I love. I have been a practicing clinician for the past 3 1/2 years. I love working with school age children, teens, and young adults who are struggling with past trauma similar to my own or maybe anxiety due to the stressors of everyday life. I love watching my clients flourish and blossom into who they are meant to be. It is great to see someone who was barely standing on their own, begin to love themselves again. Or maybe the one who was so angry about what happened to them and did not know how to control it, begin to use skills and use that anger in a more positive way. I am here to help, and it is what I love to do. We will work together to foster the skills that you need to be successful within your daily life.
With over 25 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating grief and loss, life transitions, chronic illness, trauma (including first responders), aging-related concerns, and members of the agricultural and farming communities.
I provide telehealth services across multiple states, I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.
Reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating — especially if you’re afraid of being judged, misunderstood, or unsure whether therapy will actually help. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or like you’re barely holding things together on the outside, you’re not alone.
My approach is warm, direct, practical, and collaborative. I help clients not only process emotions, but also understand why certain patterns keep happening and how to create meaningful, lasting change. Together, we focus on building emotional awareness, healthier coping skills, nervous system regulation, and stronger relationships.
Many of my clients struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, emotional overwhelm, relationship stress, attachment wounds, self-esteem issues, or difficulty managing intense emotions. I work to create a space where clients feel safe, supported, understood, and empowered to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
If any of this resonates with you, I’d be honored to support you in your healing process.
