Hello, and thank you for taking the time to learn more about my practice.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) with more than 10 years of experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges and achieve meaningful personal growth. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and am currently pursuing my doctoral degree, further expanding my knowledge and commitment to providing effective, evidence-based care.

While I enjoy working with clients across the lifespan and provide counseling services for individuals ages 6 and older, I have a particular passion for supporting high school and college students. These years often bring significant transitions, academic pressures, identity development, relationship challenges, and questions about the future. I enjoy helping young people build resilience, increase self-confidence, and develop the skills needed to thrive both personally and academically.

Whether you are seeking support for stress, anxiety, life transitions, personal growth, relationship concerns, or other emotional challenges, my goal is to provide a collaborative therapeutic experience tailored to your individual needs.

I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing, growth, and well-being.

Mental health care should feel like a conversation, not an interrogation.

I believe the best outcomes happen when patient's feel heard, respected, and are actively involved in their treatment. My approach involves a team approach and is honest and hands on. I take the time to understand the whole person —not just a diagnosis— so we can create a treatment plan that fits your goals, values, and lifestyle.

You are the expert on your life. I’m the expert on mental health. The best care happens when we combine both.

With over thirteen years of experience in the field, I bring a depth of knowledge and a steady, grounded presence to every session. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor (LPC-S), a National Certified Counselor (NCC), and one of only eight Certified DBT Specialists (C-DBT) in the state of Louisiana. I received my DBT training at a VA hospital, where I had the privilege of working closely with veterans and developing a strong foundation in trauma-informed care.

Throughout my career, I have worked across all levels of care, from crisis settings to outpatient therapy, and that range has made me a confident, compassionate guide for clients navigating emotionally intense situations. I am also a Certified Trauma Specialist, and my work spans adolescents, adults, couples, and families facing challenges like trauma and PTSD, borderline personality disorder, mood disorders, addiction, self-harm, and eating disorders. I believe deeply that recovery is possible and that renewed hope is always within reach.

Life can feel overwhelming when challenges begin piling up faster than you can manage them. Whether you're struggling with substance use, ADHD, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, or the stress of trying to keep everything together, therapy can provide a space to slow down, gain perspective, and move forward with greater confidence. I work with adolescents, adults, seniors, and couples who are feeling stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to create lasting change. Many of my clients come to therapy after trying to solve everything on their own, only to find themselves repeating the same patterns. My goal is to provide a supportive environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes. Together, we'll identify your strengths, clarify your goals, and build practical tools that help you create a healthier and more fulfilling life.

After more than 20 years of working with children and families in the school system, I now provide virtual therapy to reach and support more people navigating anxiety, ADHD, depression, grief, stress management challenges, low self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship difficulties. Many of my clients struggle with emotional regulation, feeling overwhelmed, attention and focus concerns, family conflict, academic stress, or feeling stuck in patterns that impact daily life. Family dynamics and personal relationships are often at the heart of these challenges. My approach is creative, engaging, and intentionally different from traditional talk therapy. I incorporate music, humor, interactive exercises, and experiential techniques to help reduce anxiety, build coping skills, and make it easier to process difficult emotions in a supportive, welcoming space.

I've spent years meeting people where they are — literally going out into communities across Louisiana to provide psychiatric care. Now I'm channeling that same commitment into a private telehealth practice, where you can get the support you need from home. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, or PTSD, I offer a flexible, welcoming space for real, lasting progress. Evenings and weekends work for me — I built my schedule around people who can't step away from their day to get the help they deserve.
