About me
As a licensed therapist with 25 years of experience in Kentucky, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice focuses on addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship dynamics, and personal growth. I offer compassionate, evidence-based support for adults navigating diverse experiences—from workplace stress and midlife transitions to caregiver burnout and chronic health challenges.
My therapeutic approach is deeply empathetic and tailored to each individual's unique journey. I'm committed to helping clients develop resilience, improve communication, and rediscover their sense of purpose. Whether you're struggling with social anxiety, processing past trauma, or seeking greater self-understanding, I provide a supportive environment where healing and personal transformation can occur.
I have extensive expertise in women's issues, veteran support, young adult challenges, and helping individuals manage complex emotional experiences. My goal is to walk alongside you, offering skilled guidance as you build stronger coping strategies and reconnect with your inner strength.
