Life can feel heavy sometimes. You may be the person everyone depends on while quietly feeling overwhelmed yourself. Maybe your mind won’t slow down, you’ve lost motivation, you’re carrying the weight of something that happened in the past, or you simply don’t feel like yourself anymore. You may know that something needs to change but aren’t quite sure where to begin.

I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker providing telehealth therapy to adolescents (14+), adults, couples, caregivers, and families throughout Alabama. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, substance use, major life transitions, and other experiences that can make everyday life feel more difficult than it should.

My background includes community mental health, substance use treatment, crisis support, and behavioral health care coordination. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to support people through some of the most difficult and uncertain periods of their lives—from feeling emotionally exhausted or stuck to navigating trauma, recovery, serious mental health concerns, relationship difficulties, and major changes in their health or life.

In therapy, you don’t have to have everything figured out before you show up. You don’t need the perfect words to explain what you’re feeling, and you don’t have to pretend that everything is okay. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what’s really going on, feel heard without judgment, and begin working toward changes that feel meaningful and realistic for your life.

My approach is collaborative, supportive, and practical. I use evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed care, while recognizing that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. We’ll work together to better understand what you’re experiencing, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, build healthier ways of coping, and move toward the life and relationships you want.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. You don’t have to know exactly what you need before reaching out. If you’re considering therapy, I invite you to schedule a free consultation. We can talk about what’s been going on, what you hope will be different, and whether working together feels like the right fit for you.
