Although I have worked in the mental health field for the last twenty-eight years as a licensed professional counselor, I am first and foremost a follower of Christ. As a believer, I realize that “in this world [we] will have tribulation,” but as Christ reminds us, “Take courage I have overcome the world.” As a therapist, I find my purpose in helping others “overcome.” There’s nothing more rewarding than watching the moment when a person realizes they are no longer a prisoner to the bondage that has held them. Whether the problem is anxiety, depression, grief, fear, or trauma, I find great fulfillment in seeing my clients find their personal freedom from that which has held them captive.
I hold a Master’s degree from the University of North Alabama and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Certified Dementia Educator and Trainer, Level 1 Bereavement Facilitator, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), National Certified Gerontological Counselor (NCGC), and Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC). Currently, I am finishing my certification in Sue Johnson’s Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) therapy process.
