Clinician There are times in life when we feel alone with nowhere to turn to make sense of all that life throws our way. Helping people find their way in life drives my desire to be a counselor. My goals for my counseling clients are to leave my office with a better sense of self and the knowledge that I was a partner on their journey through difficult life events. I help clients including adults, families, adolescents, and children to better understand themselves and feel empowered to succeed in life. Allowing all clients, the space to grow is vital. My approach as a counselor is completely based on the needs of my clients. I do favor a few different therapy approaches. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solutions Focused Therapy empower my clients. These methodologies are meant to create a rich, full and meaningful life while coping with the tragedy and trauma that life can bring. I provide services for those who suffer from depression, anxiety, addiction, ADHD, relationship issues, and more. I work from a spiritual point of view. My faith leads me each and every day. Faith based counseling is available by request. While my Christian beliefs influence the way I understand humanity, I see clients from all backgrounds and respect the views of each individual client. Currently, I am supervised by Amber Smith LPCC-S. “If you must look back, do so forgivingly. If you must look forward, do so Prayerfully. However, the wisest thing you can do is be Present in the Present… Gratefully.” -Mary Angelou

Clinician (Limited Scheduling Availability) Hello. I have much experience working with adults and kids of all ages. I truly love my profession and am inspired by the people that I come into contact with everyday. Counseling is a crucial part of creating lasting and meaningful changes in your life. Like most positive things, the positive changes that you make in counseling are contagious. Expect your loved ones to notice your brighter outlook and be impacted. The Ripple Effect is a beautiful side effect of your hard work in counseling. I have a passion for working with teens and kids as well as adults. I am able to connect with adults and high risk youth and create a safe and trusting environment for change. I truly enjoy being a part of the unfolding of the therapeutic process. My experience is mostly working with at risk youth in residential, school and outpatient settings. My treatment approach is client centered and solution focused. I strive to balance self esteem building and self exploration with practical solutions that move you toward your goals. In sessions we will explore your thoughts and behaviors, past childhood to adult experiences, and how they relate to the symptoms and challenges that bring you to counseling. We work toward identifying your thought patterns, and how to put a positive spin on your thoughts about yourself and others toward a healthy outcome. I believe together we can strive for healing, wellness, and freedom. I look forward to meeting you.
