Great to meet you!

With nearly four decades of expertise and a Master’s in Social Work from LSU, I’m passionate about guiding adults aged 18–45 through challenges like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, and beyond. My mission is to foster a warm, supportive environment where you feel truly heard and empowered. I craft personalized, evidence-based treatment plans designed to cultivate resilience, deepen self-awareness, and equip you with practical tools for meaningful, lasting transformation

My approach to therapy

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), insight-oriented therapy, and motivational interviewing to guide clients toward overcoming obstacles. CBT empowers you to reshape negative thoughts and behaviors, while insight-oriented therapy uncovers deep-seated patterns and past influences. Through motivational interviewing, I help you tap into your inner motivation for change. These tailored approaches work together to foster clarity, build resilience, and equip you with practical tools for sustained personal growth.

What you can expect from me

In our sessions, you'll develop practical tools, heightened self-awareness, and lasting resilience. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), insight-oriented therapy, and motivational interviewing, I guide you in reshaping negative thoughts, exploring underlying patterns, and igniting your motivation for change. My aim is to empower you with clarity and essential skills to confidently navigate life’s challenges, fostering sustained personal growth and mental well-being.
