Hello there brave one! I am passionate about helping you live your best life, and I believe that having a healthy support system (whether that be through marriage, family, or friendships) is key to our success. Founder of Emotion Focused Therapy, Dr. Sue Johnson, puts it well saying, "Being the best you can be is really only possible when you are deeply connected to another." I utilize relationship-driven therapies and focus on helping you get in touch with your emotions, core desires, personal and interpersonal needs. I specialize in seeing individual adults and couples for pre-marital or post-marital therapy. My hope is that you can learn in life not just how to survive, but to thrive! I most often use emotionally focused therapy (EFT), solution-focused therapy (SFT), and mindfulness techniques to help you find that fulfillment, connection, and sense of purpose we are all born desiring.

Hello! I truly believe that every single one of us has a powerful story to share. As Dr. Iyanla Vanzant reminds us, “It’s important that we share our experiences with other people. Your story will heal you and your story will heal somebody else. When you tell your story, you free yourself and give other people permission to acknowledge their own story.” I am passionate about connecting with people and discovering the richness of who they are—the good, the bad, and the beautifully complex. Looking forward to meeting you!

Life is tough and we are living in traumatic times. We’re surrounded by problems that often have few solutions, and we’re forced into societal routines that push us away from who we truly are and what we truly love. Despite the difficulties you may experience, I believe in your ability to heal, find strength in your discomfort, and exist in ways that are empowering and life-enhancing. And as a healer/wellness worker, I’m here to help you do just that! As a Black woman and decolonized therapist, my practice prioritizes and caters to the unique mental health needs of Black and Brown individuals - especially those with feminine and LGBTQ+ identities. Folks who are most drawn to work with me are those who are looking to integrate cultural and collective values into their therapeutic experience, while also working on their personal needs and struggles.

"There can be no transforming of darkness into light ... without emotion." -Jung Emotional Intelligence (EI) is the core of my training. It embraces the belief systems of the past that affect your present. It's a state-of-mind that defines thinking that affects emotional awareness. To become aware is not to change, but to understand and accept. Carrying guilt or shame of the past, triggers the conflict of now. I don't offer advice - I offer choices - a chance to choose your own method of healing that fits you - not something others feel 'should' be. Come. Sit. Talk. Let's wander your path together.

Are you struggling to find a therapist that fits your unique needs? Do you feel unheard? If so, we might be a good fit. I work collaboratively with clients to work together toward the treatment goals that you find important. I practice in a non-judgemental manner and embrace starting "where the client is". Connection, rapport, and the ability to feel comfortable are part of our work together. I hope that clients feel my acceptance and connection from the first interaction. Working together, we set up mutually agreed-upon goals to work together on your unique needs. We work day to day to help improve the quality and authenticity of your life's work, relationships, past, and current/future goals. I have a range of "tools in my toolbox" since treatment is not one size fits all. You are the guide to have the ultimate choice for what is working in our treatment together and what can be improved upon. It is my job to listen and to assist in your therapy success.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Kentucky. Life is full of change and transitions. We can't always control the events in our lives, but we can choose how we respond to them. My goal as a therapist is to provide education and support to people as they learn how to integrate changes into their life story. I believe we all need someone in our lives who provides a safe, nonjudgmental safe space to ask difficult questions and express unfiltered thoughts and emotions. I do more than listen. I teach coping skills as well as provide direct, respectful feedback.
