Hello! It's great to meet you. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Indiana, I've been serving clients for the past 18 years after graduating from Indiana University in 2006. I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Ball State University in 1991. I'm passionate about listening to the unique stories of each individual I work with and to be a part of their therapeutic journey.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our initial session, our priority will be to listen to your story, understand your experiences, and delve into the life challenges you're encountering. This lays the groundwork for establishing a strong client-therapist bond, which is essential for our journey together.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Based on my diverse experiences, I've had the privilege of working with clients of all ages and addressing various concerns. My empathetic nature enables me to deeply understand individuals' needs, while my ability to establish trust and rapport fosters a supportive environment. Being a people person, I naturally connect with others, making the therapeutic process more effective and comfortable.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I have a passion for collaborating with individuals who are eager to enact positive changes in their lives. Feeling stuck is common, and I'm here to assist you in navigating through daily stressors and mental health hurdles. My approach is founded on being non-judgmental and relatable, recognizing the importance of the client-therapist relationship in facilitating effective treatment.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy has been effective with my clients in improving emotional functioning and quality of life. I will be implementing Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy in my treatment to modify negative thinking patterns and behaviors. By addressing these cognitive distortions and maladaptive behaviors, clients can experience improvements in their daily lives.
Trauma-Focused CBT
In working with individuals from all age groups, who have struggled with sexual and physical abuse, abandonment, and family dysfunction, I have been trained to assist clients to process and cope with traumatic experiences. Treatment with combine elements of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy with techniques tailored to address the effects of trauma.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
In my therapeutic experience, the utilization of Solution-Focused therapy has taught clients to focus on the present and the future rather than dwelling on the past. I will assist you on identifying solutions to setting goals to address current issues.
Structural Family Therapy
In family treatment, I have utilized Structural Family Therapy to assist the family by addressing the underlying structure of interactions within the family. In treatment, I will focus on reorganizing relationships and communication patterns to promote healthier dynamics and resolve conflicts within the family system.
