Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Bowling Green, KY

If you are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, infertility, pregnancy or postpartum challenges, or relationship stress, you do not have to navigate it alone. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am passionate about helping individuals and couples feel supported, understood, and empowered during some of life’s most difficult and emotionally overwhelming seasons.

I am a dedicated mental health professional with experience supporting individuals through a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and life transitions. My background includes working with diverse populations, and I strive to create an inclusive, respectful space where clients feel heard and understood. I am committed to ongoing professional development and use evidence-based practices to ensure clients receive effective, up-to-date care tailored to their unique needs.

I am a seasoned psychotherapist and psychiatric provider with nearly two decades of experience in the behavioral health field. After earning a Master of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Science in Social Work from the University of Louisville in 2006, I became licensed by the Kentucky Board of Social Work. I also hold national certification in case management (CCMC), am a licensed supervisory-level addictions specialist (CADAC-IV) through the International Certification and Reciprocity Consortium, and a licensed marriage and family therapist through the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT).

My academic journey continued with a Doctorate in Behavioral Health from Arizona State University, specializing in integrated medical and behavioral health services, followed by a Post-Doctorate Master of Science in Clinical Psychopharmacology from Fairleigh Dickinson University. I further expanded my scope of practice through a Master’s Entry in Professional Nursing (BSN & MSN) from the University of Louisville in 2020, a Post-Master’s Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from Northern Kentucky University in 2021, and a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from Duke University. I am board certified as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, licensed to prescribe and manage medications.

In addition to clinical practice, I have led multidisciplinary teams and supervised clinical operations, enhancing quality of care, staff development, and patient outcomes across diverse systems. I am deeply committed to lifelong learning and delivering compassionate, evidence-based, integrative care to individuals and families in both Kentucky and Indiana.
