Services

I aim to help clients work through their problems to have a more enjoyable life. I use an integrative therapy approach incorporating person centered therapy techniques (focuses on building strong rapport and respect between client and therapist) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in order to assist clients in making their thinking more positive and decrease negative thinking habits. I am also trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) which helps children and adolescents deal with their trauma through a cognitive and narrative approach. This evidence based practice has an 80% success rate and is about 16-25 sessions.

Along with serving clients in face to face therapy, I invite clients throughout the states of Alabama & Georgia to work with me through telemental health services. We meet on video through our HIPAA secure platform and work on goals just like we would in face to face. I have been providing telemental health services since 2015.

My personal perspective is that we all face life events, anticipated and unexpected, that contribute to self-doubt and insecurities. My therapeutic perspective is that we may need guidance, support, reassurance, and an objective perspective in facing life's challenges head on and making a lifelong, healthy change. Being a therapist has allowed me to be a part of one's journey in regaining balance, stability, and overall life happiness. I strive to aid others in improving their relationships, aspirations, and over all mental health.

I use an integrative approach to help each client find solutions. Thinking, feeling, and personal history connect in ways that form unique personal experiences. My integrative approach uses a variety of methods to support healing and growth rather than an one size fits all approach. I work as a partner with clients to sift through the confusion that often comes with stress, depression, anxiety, and trauma.

I have worked in a variety of settings to include hospitals, rehabilitation, day programs and private practice. I am trained in an unique approach known as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR). EMDR can be an effective way to address the lingering effects of disturbing life experiences. For more information about EMDR therapy, you can visit http://www.emdr.com/what-is-emdr/. I look forward to working with you!
