Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Louisiana with 8 years of experience supporting adults and children through grief, loss, life changes, and everyday stress. I help with parenting issues, motivation, self esteem, confidence, anger, anxiety, depression, and more. I also offer support with spirituality from a Christian perspective, honoring your values as we work toward a more hopeful and fulfilling life.

My approach to therapy

I believe you are the expert of your story and already hold many strengths that can help you overcome what challenges you. My approach is open, inviting, and down to earth so you feel comfortable engaging in the process. Together, we will explore your thoughts, feelings, and patterns, then build practical tools that fit your life, at a pace that feels manageable for you.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a calm, nonjudgmental space to share what has been weighing on you and what kind of support you are hoping for. I will listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and work with you to set clear goals for therapy. Reaching out takes courage, and you do not have to do this alone. If you are ready to take the next step, I am here to walk alongside you.
