LPC/MHSP, 6 years of experience
I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Tennessee. I received my bachelor’s degree in Psychology and master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Alabama in Birmingham. I have worked in all types of settings, such as intensive in-home, outpatient, and inpatient. I have expertise in women’s issues, perinatal mental health care, anxiety and depression. My knowledge and experience in these settings makes me qualified to assist you in these areas.
My client's can expect empathy, safety, solid communication, and to be heard from the first session until the last.
As a mental health clinician, my greatest strengths are communication, motivation, and problem-solving.
I enjoy working with women's mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, boundary concerns, relationship stress, communication difficulties.
I have been using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with my clients for 6 years. This evidenced based approach is effective with individuals that struggle with depression and anxious symptoms. Through examining thoughts, feelings, and behaviors together, we will learn how to change negative thinking patterns and behaviors to decrease those symptoms.
