Hello, and thank you for taking the time to learn more about my practice.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) with more than 10 years of experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges and achieve meaningful personal growth. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and am currently pursuing my doctoral degree, further expanding my knowledge and commitment to providing effective, evidence-based care.
While I enjoy working with clients across the lifespan and provide counseling services for individuals ages 6 and older, I have a particular passion for supporting high school and college students. These years often bring significant transitions, academic pressures, identity development, relationship challenges, and questions about the future. I enjoy helping young people build resilience, increase self-confidence, and develop the skills needed to thrive both personally and academically.
Whether you are seeking support for stress, anxiety, life transitions, personal growth, relationship concerns, or other emotional challenges, my goal is to provide a collaborative therapeutic experience tailored to your individual needs.
I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing, growth, and well-being.

Hi. I'm a proud LSU Alumni with a BA in Psychology and a minor in Religous Studies along with a Master' Degree in Social Work. I have a passion for empowering others and helping them navigate through life's difficulties so they can live their life to the fullest. My professional experience ranges from addictions, mental health, and geriatric care to my most recent position as a hospice social worker.
With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I am deeply committed to helping individuals and families heal, grow, and reconnect with their strengths. My work is grounded in trauma-centered therapy, recognizing that many emotional and behavioral challenges are rooted in experiences that deserve compassion, understanding, and skilled support.
Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with children, adolescents, and families, helping them navigate life transitions, relationship challenges, and the impact of trauma. I believe therapy should be a safe space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to move forward with confidence.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Arizona and Louisiana with over 17 years of experience in trauma-informed psychotherapy. I earned my Master of Social Work from Tulane University in 2008 and have worked across inpatient and outpatient treatment settings, university counseling, grief and bereavement care, and trauma-focused programs. I am EMDR trained (finalizing certification) and integrate CBT, DBT, IFS-informed parts work, somatic approaches, and mindfulness-based therapies.
I specialize in complex PTSD, sexual trauma, religious and spiritual trauma, attachment wounds, ADHD, anxiety, and shame-based relational patterns. Many of the individuals I work with are high-functioning on the outside but feel lost, fragmented, or deeply self-critical on the inside.
Clients often describe me as warm, loving, affirming, and validating. I also bring a teacher’s heart into the room. I believe understanding how trauma impacts the nervous system, relationships, and even women’s biological health helps reduce shame and restore clarity. I see therapy as sacred work. You are not a diagnosis to me; you are a whole person whose nervous system learned to survive.
