Great to meet you!

I graduated in 2022 from Lindsey Wilson College in Columbia, Kentucky with a Master of Education in Counseling. I interned for a year at Serenity Counseling in Gallatin, Tennessee. I learned so much from this internship; not only how to work with my clients, but I learned so much about myself and why I chose this field to work in. After graduation from LWC, I worked under Carlin Giles, LPC-MHSP where I earned the hours required towards licensure in 2 1/2 years. I now have my own practice practice in Hendersonville, TN.

My approach to therapy

While I'm gentle and caring in my approach, I am also honest and straightforward. I believe that each individual has the power to make the changes necessary for growth and healing in their life. My clients describe me as a therapist who understands, listens, and wants their clients to leave each session with valuable tools to assist them in life.

What you can expect from me

The time in your first session will be spent by going over some logistics such as fees, confidentiality, etc., as well as getting to know each other, although it’ll be more about getting to know you. We’ll use our first few sessions to continue to work on our therapeutic relationship. I’ll work to ensure your time in therapy with me is a time that you look forward to because you feel safe and heard.
