I believe therapy works best when you feel comfortable enough to genuinely be yourself. I’m a down-to-earth and approachable therapist, and my goal is to create a space where you feel supported and understood without feeling judged. I also believe therapy doesn’t always have to feel heavy—there is absolutely room for humor and being human.

I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Rocky Mountain University of Health Professionals. I have extensive experience working in mental health, particularly with adolescents, young adults, and families. Much of my professional background has been in residential treatment, where I have supported individuals struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, behavioral concerns, relationship difficulties, and family conflict.

One thing my experience has taught me is that behavior usually makes a lot more sense once we understand what is happening underneath it. I enjoy helping clients understand themselves better, recognize patterns that may be keeping them stuck, and find healthier ways to cope, communicate, and move forward.

I especially enjoy working with people who may have had a difficult experience with therapy in the past—or who aren't completely sure they want to be in therapy in the first place. You don't have to come in knowing exactly what you want to work on. We can figure that out together.

My goal is to provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable exploring what has brought you to therapy and where you want to go from here. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, and finding the right therapist matters.

With more than 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief, life transitions, relationship concerns, and the everyday stress that can leave us feeling overwhelmed or stuck. Whether you're navigating a difficult season, healing from past experiences, or simply wanting to understand yourself better, we'll work together to identify meaningful goals and build practical skills that support lasting change.

We all feel a little off now and then. If you’ve been wondering if counseling might be helpful, you’ve come to the right place! Asking for help is the first step to a better you, and is a sign of strength, not weakness. Therapy can bring clarity to a life hijacked by life's challenges.

Hello! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) based in Tennessee. I am also licensed in the states of UT and NE. I have been in practice for 15 years. I love working with clients who are genuinely seeking therapy for their own growth and awareness. I enjoy helping clients who want to take a deeper look at behaviors and relationships in their lives that could be modified and or improved. I started my career in community mental health working with individuals who were suffering from addiction, childhood trauma, family conflict, and faith crisis. I feel like I have learned the true impact addiction, poverty, trauma, and abuse can have on an individual and family system. This has helped me create space for clients to feel safe, heard, valued, and respected in our sessions. I look forward to meeting you!

I have been described as a “down to earth” and “real” therapist. I like to believe these are accurate descriptors. I bring a plethora of experience to my therapy room; however, I recognize, acknowledge, and celebrate the client being the expert on their life. I provide a safe environment which allows my clients to be transparent without judgment. It takes a lot of courage to reach out for help and it is definitely a risk. We need to remember there is no growth without risk!

As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that understanding your mental health is key to stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so I am glad you are here. I’ve been practicing for several years, and know truly enjoy working with individuals seeking insight, change, and growth.

I strive to help individuals who have been plagued by past or current trauma. I am here to empower within and help my clients uncover who they truly are. My goal is to connect with your potential, find wellness, and create meaning. Finding a therapist who empathizes yet pushes you is never easy. My gentle approach will aid clients in understanding their maladaptive thought patterns and challenging the narrative that has kept them stuck for so long.
