- LCSW
As a licensed therapist in Arkansas and Oklahoma, I bring nearly three decades of compassionate clinical experience to supporting individuals through life's most challenging transitions. My approach is deeply rooted in understanding the complex emotional landscapes people navigate, with specialized expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief.
I am committed to creating a supportive therapeutic environment where clients can explore their inner experiences, heal from past wounds, and develop meaningful strategies for personal growth. My practice centers on empowering individuals across diverse backgrounds—from young adults to older clients—to rediscover their inherent strengths and cultivate self-compassion.
My professional focus spans a wide range of concerns, including relationship dynamics, workplace challenges, life transitions, and personal identity exploration. I offer a holistic, person-centered approach that honors each individual's unique journey, helping clients develop resilience, improve communication, and move toward greater emotional well-being.
Through collaborative and compassionate counseling, I aim to support you in understanding yourself more deeply, overcoming obstacles, and creating positive, sustainable change in your life.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
