Greenville Counselors.

Louisville in 2018, I have spent the last 5 years working to help clients cope with their unique mental health challenges.
I have experience working as a therapist with in-home services, outpatient, and residential. I have worked with clients facing anxiety, depression, disordered eating, sexual/physical/emotional abuse, trauma, family conflict, LGBTQIA+, social difficulties, ADHD, obsessive compulsions, and adoption and attachment difficulties.
I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and young adults but welcome all clients. I believe in taking a relational approach and building a relationship based on trust and mutual respect to empower personal growth. I also believe that there is a unique advantage to using creative and kinetic strategies and, yes, we can do that virtually!

I have experience helping clients explore their unique perspectives and aid their resiliency through anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, generational patterns, life transitions and self-esteem. I welcome all clients and view my approach as a guide through the forest of the psyche- I’ll join each step you take making the journey less lonely and together we can find the other side you are seeking. I foster an environment of empowerment and compassion and deeply value the trust and rapport I have the privilege of earning.

settings. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults managing life stressors and transitions, anxiety, depression, and a history of trauma, and with children and adolescents with problematic sexual behaviors. My approach is eclectic, utilizing trauma informed, person centered, CBT, DBT, and strength and mindfulness-based modalities to individualize the therapy process, creating space for autonomy, voice, growth, hope, creativity, and laughter. Therapy can be hard work, and I strive to provide a warm and safe environment to explore and honor your unique experiences, strengths, goals, and potential at a pace that is comfortable to you, supporting and celebrating your journey toward healing and wellbeing.

I have experience working as a therapist within elementary, middle, and high school and in an outpatient setting. I have worked with clients who have faced anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and conflict within families and relationships. I approach each client from a person-centered perspective and believe in taking a holistic approach to treatment. While my experience is mostly with children, adolescents, and young adults, I welcome all

and encouraging came natural…it was a gift in so many ways. The joy I receive when I’m able to provide life-changing hope is indescribable. Pursuing my Bachelors in Psychology from Liberty University was the first step, in making this dream and passion a reality; next, I would journey to receive a Masters in Human Services- area of specialization Marriage and Family.

about having a place where you can finally set things down, breathe, and be met with understanding instead of pressure.

I work with individuals navigating grief, caregiver stress, identity shifts, and major life transitions. My approach is grounded in compassion, presence, and respect for the emotional weight people often carry silently for far too long.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Family and Consumer Sciences with a focus in Early Intervention and my Master of Social Work from Winthrop University. My clinical background includes hospice and end-of-life care, child welfare (foster care and adoption), youth mentoring, and early childhood development. These experiences have given me a deep respect for the many ways people experience loss, connection, and change across the lifespan.

Over time, I’ve learned that suffering is rarely just about one moment or one circumstance—it is often layered, relational, and shaped by life experiences that were never fully processed or supported. In therapy, I help clients gently untangle those layers with care, clarity, and self-compassion.

I take an integrative, strengths-based approach, drawing from cognitive-behavioral principles, mindfulness, and acceptance-based strategies alongside trauma-informed and grief-focused care.

I often work with clients who are: Holding the emotional weight of caring for others, Moving through grief, loss, or anticipatory grief, Experiencing identity shifts or life transitions or Feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or emotionally exhausted

In our work together, we focus on both understanding your experience and building tools that help you move through life in a way that feels more grounded and aligned with who you are becoming—not just who you have had to be.

Therapy with me is collaborative, steady, and rooted in authenticity and genuine connection. There is no expectation to perform, explain perfectly, or rush your process. You get to show up as you are, and we begin there.
