Great to meet you!

Welcome! I’m a licensed clinical social worker with 17 years of practice experience and a passion for walking alongside individuals on their journey toward healing and transformation. I’m licensed in Alabama, the District of Columbia, Georgia, Indiana, and Virginia, and I specialize in helping clients navigate trauma, stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and self-esteem struggles through a Christian-centered approach.

My approach to therapy

I offer a compassionate, integrative healing process that combines proven therapeutic modalities, including Brainspotting, CBT, and EMDR, with spiritual guidance rooted in faith. My approach honors your unique journey, focusing not just on emotional and mental healing but also on spiritual and relational growth. Together, we’ll work to release past hurts, restore emotional balance, and renew your sense of purpose and connection.

What you can expect from me

During our initial session, we will begin with introductions and then delve into the particular challenges you are encountering in your life, as well as the areas in which you hope to effect change. You will gain an understanding of my therapeutic approach, and together, we will craft a customized plan to address these issues in subsequent sessions.
