About me
I am licensed in the state of Kentucky and Kansas as an LCSW. I enjoy working with adults who may be experiencing adjustment problems due to life circumstances, and my main focus is to help my clients improve their quality of life and overall health and wellness so they can live the kind of life they want to live. I utilize CBT, DBT, Mindfulness and Holistic perspectives.
I have worked in the mental health field for many years and when the pandemic hit it changed how I practice. I have an office at home here in Kentucky where I see clients currently through Telehealth only. My husband and I are considering moving a little more East in Kentucky and at that point I may decide to go back to doing In Person sessions. I enjoy helping people improve their quality of life and be less anxious and depressed, find ways to be more present today and less inside of their thoughts and we can do this together!
