I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 28 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health services to children, adolescents, adults, and families in a wide range of clinical settings. My professional experience includes school-based services, adult case management, inpatient psychiatric treatment, therapeutic foster care, and medical social work. Having worked continuously in the mental health field since 1996, I bring a deep understanding of the diverse challenges individuals and families face and a strong commitment to individualized care.

I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of New England. My therapeutic approach integrates solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and practical coping strategies that promote lasting growth and resilience.

In practice, I provide therapy for individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transition challenges. I value meeting you where you are and creating a safe, supportive space for healing and personal growth. When you’re ready, I welcome you to schedule an appointment and begin this work together.

Are you, your child, or your family struggling with anxiety, depression, stress management, or trauma? I have a passion for working with individuals (children and adults), families, and couples. My job is to assist you in helping you look at things differently. Focusing on a shift in perspective allows for needed changes in feelings, thoughts, and behaviors to fall into place. I have been a practicing therapist for 13 years. My aim is to assist individuals, families, and/or couples in creating a better quality of life. So, if a better quality of life is what you are seeking, I want to walk with you on that journey.

I enjoy studying behavior analysis and learning concepts and conditioning. During my collegiate career, I participated in my college's study of Oddity Concepts in Learning. I graduated cum laude with my master's degree in counseling in 2009 from UALR.

Beginning a new mental health journey is not easy, but it is worth the effort. I value the vulnerability that it took to begin this journey. I see you. I hear you. Let's take this journey together. Therapy is not an overnight fix. There is not magic wand. It won't always be easy. But, it will be worth it. Are you ready?

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 14 years of experience supporting adults, teens, and children through life’s challenges. I’ve worked in outpatient, short-term inpatient, and residential settings, and I have a particular passion for helping adults navigate the transitions that come with aging. My approach is rooted in empathy and collaboration, and I strive to help my clients discover new perspectives, identify their goals, and take meaningful steps toward creating a more fulfilling life.

I earned my Master’s in Community Counseling from the University of Central Arkansas and hold certification in tech-assisted counseling. I use a client-centered approach to help individuals identify what they want to achieve and develop personalized plans to reach their goals, always honoring their autonomy and lived experience.

Life can be difficult, especially when faced with pain, loss, or unexpected change. I know the importance of having someone who listens without judgment and provides genuine support. I invite you to reach out so we can work together on building the clarity, healing, and strength needed to make your life what you want it to be.
