I am licensed in Kentucky with 21 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, as well as self-esteem, relationship and confidence issues. I have spent much of my career in senior and executive leadership roles, so I can offer support and guidance to my clients who are navigating career/work issues as well. I will work with you to create an open and safe environment where your thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I see my role as a GPS, of sorts, that gives you some insight and feedback about your journey, but you will always be in the driver's seat. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
I promise to always provide a therapeutic environment that is compassionate, empathetic, and safe. I will listen to you and make sure you feel heard and understood. I will offer you insights into your experiences, feedback on how to handle issues, and evidence-based treatment for any mental health conditions that you are struggling with.
CBT, Trauma-Focused CBT and Motivational Interviewing
I pride myself in creating a safe, relaxed and (sometimes even) fun therapeutic environment. My ease in building trust and rapport with people helps to ease the anxiety that many people feel in entering a new clinical relationship. I can help clients get to the heart of the issue quickly and work toward solving it, helping to understand the origin or any important contexts of the issue along the way. I will be your biggest cheerleader, AND will hold you accountable for your part in this investment that you are making into your mental health.
