Hi there! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Alabama. I provide therapy services to individuals living in Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, and Virginia via telehealth. My practice focuses on helping clients health with matters related to grief, life transitions, and unhealthy or difficult relationships in their lives. I work together with clients to facilitate change and healing within.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session together, we'll begin with brief introductions, and then discuss the specific challenges you are facing.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My primary goal is to make sure the people that I am working with feel fully seen and understood. I truly believe that the most significant change can occur when you trust your therapist and can be your authentic self. I strive to show empathy and compassion to all of my clients.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I love working with older adults who are experiencing life transitions or navigating grief. My clients are interested in learning more about themselves, and developing a new sense of identity. They often feel isolated, confused, overwhelmed, and stuck.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
As human beings, it is inevitable that we will encounter painful or uncomfortable experiences in life. I use this approach to support people in moving forward with their lives despite what has happened or how they are feeling.
Strength-Based
I use this approach to highlight the skills and strengths individuals may already have in order to cope with painful, or challenging situations.
Motivational Interviewing
I utilize this in my practice to support those who are struggling to find motivation, or who are ambivalent about making changes in their lives. This is an effective treatment method for those with chronic illness, substance misuse, and people looking to generally make changes in order to live a healthier lifestyle.
Grief Therapy
Grief is a universal, painful experience. My goal is to support individuals in grief as they navigate complex feelings associated with grief, develop the ability to adapt, and continue living after loss.
