For the past 25 years I have been passionate about helping people through the difficulties in life. I love to serve people by listening deeply and offering incredibly helpful strategies and tools. You are not alone. I have been there too, and I am here to help you move forward. Another thing you need to know about me? I truly believe your life and your relationships can get better. You may be dealing with depression, anxiety, loss, trauma, eating disorders, or life transitions. It will take some work, but it is possible.
As a therapist, I help people find a way forward when they are overwhelmed or trapped by the hard and heavy things in their lives. I strive to provide a safe place and a safe relationship for clients to talk about challenges, process thoughts and feelings, explore solutions, practice skills, and develop confidence to effect change within their own lives.
As a counselor, my desire is to create a safe environment for you to share your hurts and hopes. My goal is to facilitate a place where you can express your thoughts and feelings and process those in a way that leads you to greater understanding and peace. As we walk through this season together, I want to help you navigate these difficult transitions and develop new skills and insights that enable you to face future challenges as well.
In a therapy office, I believe it is of the utmost importance for you to feel comfortable and safe. That is why I place so much emphasis on the therapist-client relationship in services. Through a trusting relationship, we can begin to explore the challenges and barriers you face that prevent you from achieving your goals. I believe that every person is unique, thus not every approach or intervention will work for every person. It is my job to be supportive and help identify what is going to work for you.
I am a native of NWA, and graduated from the University of Arkansas with a Master of Social Work Degree. I have worked with clients of all ages in a variety of settings including therapeutic day treatment, inpatient treatment, integrated behavioral health, and a healthcare clinic. I am passionate about helping individuals develop healthy behaviors and thought patterns.
I was raised in North Central Arkansas and moved to Fayetteville to attend the University of Arkansas and received a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and a Master of Social Work Degree. I have worked in different settings from residential, therapeutic day treatment, school based and outpatient therapy including being a clinical supervisor and program director. I am passionate about assisting individuals in becoming the best version of themselves possible.

I have a Bachelor’s degree in psychology from Ouachita Baptist University and a Master’s degree from John Brown University in Community Counseling with an emphasis in Marriage and Family therapy. I primarily use a cognitive behavioral approach to therapy, but recognize that people are not one size fits all so one of my biggest goals is to meet my clients where they are at and take whatever approach is needed to help them. I am trained in accelerated resolution therapy (ART) for trauma and also draw from a variety of other approaches to help my clients as they work to grow and change.
“I believe the most beautiful times in a human life is when one can feel confident, and free to be who they are. Every person deserves to experience this freedom in whatever life stage they may be in. Let me help equip you with the tools necessary to JUST BE!” I handle a variety of issues effecting children and adults. These include anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship issues, sexual issues, behavioral issues, and trauma. I believe that every person has what it takes to heal inside of them, and sometimes they just need a little bit of help. I would be honored to help guide you.
Therapy can be an incredibly beautiful and healing process, but potentially vulnerable and intimidating on the front end, as are most new experiences with new people. I aim to help ease you into the therapy space by providing an inclusive environment as well as normalizing those feelings that might arise as we explore your areas of concern.
"Rapport – how well a therapist understands his client and communicates with them is the greatest indicator for healthy therapeutic outcomes. My approach to direct therapy is both genuine and authentic with clear and concise positive regard for my clients. I strive to meet my clients’ unique and complex needs by addressing their personal struggles, in addition to the impact it has on their environment.”
I believe in counseling as a journey that is unique to each individual, as life experiences vary greatly for each person. I provide care that is client-centered so that you can find hope and healing in a non-judgemental and accepting space. Before my personal counseling experiences began, hopelessness and despair felt like constant companions, despite seeking every resource I could to try to overcome the obstacles I faced.
