I am licensed in Kentucky and Florida with 9 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping individuals with coping with high stress careers/front line workers/emergency professionals, addictions, PTSD/ trauma and abuse, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & LGBTQ related issues. Life has many challenges and no one heals the same way. If you are experiencing trauma let me reassure you- you will NEVER be expected to go over the details of the events that have affected you. We will work on your stressors and challenges in a way that will not leave you feel retraumatized or heavier. By meeting my customers where they are at I create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It can be difficult to talk about sensitive issues, but in a safe environment we are allowed to unload the pain and open up to healing. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
The first session is all based upon your needs. Sometime people aren't comfortable diving straight into challenges they are experiencing, and that is OK! Building rapport and relationship is important when you are meeting with someone you are trusting with your vulnerability. I am here to support you, listen and encourage you to be your best and healthiest self.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
One of my biggest strengths is being open minded about topics that can be difficult to have due to different shame based societal "norms" (ex: religion, LGBTQ, abortion, addiction, etc). I really love what I do, and enjoy encouraging and being a positive support system for my customers.

I believe that regardless of the past and the challenges you face that we can find hope in your journey. I also believe that therapy helps you access your own wisdom by allowing you a safe place to be heard and honored. I offer a lot of different therapy modalities including equine therapy (weather permitting) and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (similar to EMDR). If you are struggling with a variety of issues and haven't had much success maybe it is time to try something new and positive!
