Great to meet you!

Welcome! I'm glad you're here. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with nine years of experience in the mental health field helping individuals navigate life's challenges and move toward healing. I earned my Master of Social Work from Arkansas State University, and I am passionate about supporting survivors of trauma as they reclaim their lives and rediscover their strengths.

On a more personal note: I am a Christian, wife, and mother of one precious little girl! In my free time I enjoy spending time outdoors, playing DND with friends, and playing guitar. My mom and sister are also LCSWs, and I enjoy working with them!

My approach to therapy

I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an evidence-based approach that helps identify unhelpful thought patterns, develop healthy coping strategies, and create meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space that supports you on your healing journey.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, we'll spend time getting to know one another. I'll ask questions about your experiences, your current concerns, and what you hope to gain from therapy. This conversation helps me better understand your unique story and allows us to begin building a treatment plan that reflects your goals. Most importantly, our first session is an opportunity to establish a foundation of trust and collaboration as we begin working together toward healing and growth. I’m excited to meet you!
