I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience serving individuals across the lifespan. I earned my Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of North Alabama in 2004 and have worked in nonprofit behavioral health, hospital settings, long-term care facilities and private practice.

My faith is foundational to who I am and informs both my personal life and professional practice. I am committed to fostering a compassionate, secure environment where clients feel genuinely seen, valued, and supported. My work integrates cognitive-behavioral and strengths-based approaches, while respecting each client’s individual beliefs and values. I am also a Certified Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) practitioner.

I am especially passionate about working with older adults and caregivers. Informed by my own caregiving experience and my training as a Certified Dementia Educator, I am honored to support individuals and families as they navigate the aging journey. I deeply respect and appreciate the wisdom and resilience of older adults.

In addition to clinical work, I enjoy giving back to the counseling profession by providing supervision and mentorship to counselors working towards licensure. I also enjoy having my lovable dog Rocky, join me in providing emotional support to clients on occasion.

Above all, my goal in counseling is to offer hope and healing. Even in life’s most difficult seasons, hope is attainable. Hope heals.
