Grief counselors and therapists in Jackson, MS

I bring over 20 years of experience supporting adults through addiction, mood, and thought‐related challenges, with a strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship. I work to create a space where you feel genuinely seen, supported, and safe to explore your story. Together, we move at a steady, compassionate pace toward clarity, emotional grounding, and meaningful change.

I help adults in Mississippi who are feeling overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, addiction, low self-esteem, or major life changes. If you’re used to taking care of everyone else and are finally wondering, “What about me?”, you’re in the right place. Therapy with me is a nonjudgmental space where you can slow down, feel heard, and start making sense of what you’re going through so life doesn’t feel so heavy.

My motto is rooted in Philippians 3:13-14, "Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended; but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those which are before, I press towards the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus."

Love yourself enough to give yourself the opportunity to succeed!
