About me
I am a therapist licensed in both Alabama and Pennsylvania with more than 14 years of experience in the mental health field. I have had the privilege of working with people facing a wide range of challenges, including addiction, depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, life transitions, and LGBTQ+ concerns.
My therapy style is warm, supportive, and collaborative. I don’t believe therapy is about telling people how to live their lives. Instead, I see it as walking alongside you, helping you make sense of your experiences, discover your strengths, and move toward the kind of life you want for yourself. I am a strong listener, and I believe that feeling truly heard can be a powerful part of healing.
My approach is grounded primarily in a cognitive framework, which means I pay close attention to how you think about yourself, the world around you, and the situations you face. I also believe our past experiences play an important role in shaping those beliefs and patterns. I try to help turn awareness into action through practical, collaborative goals that support change between sessions.
Taking the first step toward change takes courage. If you are ready, I would be honored to walk alongside you, support you, and help you navigate whatever challenges you may be facing.
I look forward to working with you.
