I began my private practice in 2006 with a focus on individual and family therapy. With over 20 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I am dedicated to working with adults, adolescents (age 15 and up), and families seeking growth and change. My holistic counseling style utilizes a compassionate but challenging approach incorporating mind/body techniques like EFT/Tapping, cognitive behavioral strategies, along with IFS & systems theory. I help empower the individual to learn healthy coping skills, how to regulate the nervous system, and grow through true acceptance.

​

I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Texas Woman’s University in 2000 and my B.S. in Psychology from Oklahoma State University with an experimental/behavioral focus. My previous counseling experience included working with adult victims of violence, children and adolescents in residential treatment programs, and in the schools with teen parents, at-risk teens, and as a Behavioral Resource Specialist.

 

I have been married over 20 years and have 2 adolescent boys. My family keeps me learning, loving, and on the go.
