Bio

• Clinical Interests: Empowerment, Advocacy, Life transitions and Adjustments, Trauma, Emerging Adulthood, Depression, Anxiety, Self-esteem, Identity Exploration

• Counseling Style: I believe in personalized care and focus on empowering others to make well-informed and self-determined decisions about their mental health care. I utilize person-centered and solution-focused approaches by utilizing cognitive-behavioral and reality-based techniques. I pride myself on relatability and providing a nonjudgmental, safe space for individuals to process, learn, and gain new perspectives on life.

• Personal: In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family, friends, and my dog. I enjoy active yet simple activities such as bowling, miniature golf, axe-throwing, sightseeing, and nature-watching. I love a good Southern meal, nature documentaries, corny comedies, and giraffes.
