Great to meet you!

There are seasons when you can keep showing up for everyone around you while quietly wondering how much longer you can keep carrying everything yourself. Anxiety may leave you constantly on edge, depression can make it difficult to feel like yourself, stress may become your everyday normal, or grief and trauma can change the way you experience life and relationships. I provide virtual individual therapy for adults and seniors throughout Oklahoma, with a focus on anxiety, depression, stress management, grief and loss, and trauma. I also support clients navigating PTSD, family and relationship concerns, anger, bipolar disorder, maternal mental health, women’s issues, cultural and ethnic experiences, and end-of-life concerns when they are part of the larger picture.

My Christian faith informs my belief that every person has inherent value and deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and kindness. With more than a decade in social work and experience in behavioral health dating back to 1993, my goal is to create a welcoming space where you feel valued, understood, and supported as you move toward healing.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy should begin with understanding who you are, what you have experienced, and the strengths you already possess—not simply identifying what is “wrong.” My approach is client-centered and strengths-based, which means our work will be guided by your needs, goals, experiences, and the areas of your life that matter most to you. Anxiety, depression, overwhelming stress, grief, or trauma may be what initially brings you to therapy, while PTSD, anger, family or relationship difficulties, cultural experiences, women’s issues, maternal mental health concerns, or major life changes may add important layers to what you are carrying.

We will explore how those experiences connect rather than treating each concern as a separate problem. Together, we can identify patterns, build healthier coping strategies, recognize strengths that may have been difficult to see during challenging seasons, and develop practical ways to respond differently when life feels overwhelming. My role is to meet you where you are while helping you move toward where you want to be.

What you can expect from me

Our first priority will be building enough trust for you to feel comfortable being honest about what is really going on. During our initial sessions, I will listen carefully to what brought you to therapy, learn about the experiences and relationships that have shaped you, and work with you to clarify what you hope will be different. From there, we will develop goals together and identify realistic ways to begin moving toward them. You can expect warmth, affirmation, encouragement, and respect alongside thoughtful conversations that help you recognize patterns and build on your strengths.

Progress might mean feeling less consumed by anxiety, reconnecting with yourself during depression, carrying grief in a healthier way, processing trauma, responding differently to stress or anger, strengthening relationships, or feeling more supported through motherhood, health changes, or the end-of-life journey. My hope is that therapy gives you a place where you feel seen for your whole story and empowered to move forward with greater peace, confidence, and hope.
