Great to meet you!

I am licensed in Alabama with 4 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma, abuse, & bipolar disorder. I also have experience working with depression. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

My approach to therapy

Working together to find what works for you, no one person works the same.

What you can expect from me

First session is getting to know each other and the process, as well as how I believe I can best work with you on your problems.
