About Me
Professional Background
​
I am a native of Petal, MS and lived on the Mississippi Gulf Coast from 2011-2021. I obtained my undergraduate degree in Psychology from the University of Southern Mississippi in 2009, and received my Master's degree in Child and Adolescent Therapy from William Carey University in 2012. I am currently working toward my PhD in Mind-Body Medicine and Applied Psychophysiology at Saybrook University. My professional experience consists of working as an adult services case manager in 2009 and a family, adolescent, and child clinician from 2012-2015. I worked closely with DHS and the Harrison County Youth Court during this time. In 2017, I worked as a Military Family Life Counselor and provided services to the children, families, and service members in the U.S. Navy. I opened my private practice in June of 2015 and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (#1984) and board-qualified supervior for the State of Mississippi and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for the State of Florida (#MH19066). I completed an additional year of specialized training through the Holistic Arts Institute to introduce holistic health and wellness techniques into therapy with my clients. I am a Board-Certified Holistic Health Practitioner through the American Association of Drugless Practitioners a 200-hour Certified Yoga Teacher, and a Board-Certified Telehealth Provider.
Therapeutic Approach
I specialize in mind-body therapy, psychophysiology, and biofeedback. I often utilize Internal Family Systems, Transpersonal Psychology, Inner Child, and Shadow Work, and discuss spirituality and existential topics, as needed. I am dedicated to serving the LGBTQ+ and transgender community, and I have always strived to make my services readily available to anyone within this demographic. I provide support, respect, and encouragement for ALL people, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, and religion. I believe that therapy is essential, and no one should have to feel that they do not have access to support.
Personal
I am a proud part of the LGBTQ+ community, and I reside in Casselberry, FL, with my partner and our pets. I enjoy international travel, summiting mountains, and collecting house plants. Yoga and meditation are necessary in my personal life, and I enjoy introducing my clients to these deeply healing techniques and philosophies.
