The City of Ardmore is located by the Arbuckle Mountains within many ridges and ranges along the shorelines of many of the lakes in Ardmore. If you have periods of extreme sadness and exhaustion mixed with periods of manic episodes, you may have bipolar disorder. In Ardmore, there are many mental health professionals that specialize in treating bipolar disorder. 

Lake Murray and Lake Texoma are two of the lakes that are popular with the residents as well as the streams and creeks coming from the Washita and Red Rivers. Talk to one of the Ardmore counselors who can help you get back to normal, so you can hang out at the beach with your friends again.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 17 years of therapy experience working with children, teens, families, and adults. My style is engaging, calm, and I want to make sure we build a strong rapport. I truly believe the research that says that the strength of the therapeutic relationship is the strongest predictor of the outcome of therapy. I am strengths based, believing that we are each the experts on our lives, we just sometimes need someone to walk along beside us during hard and confusing times. It is a privilege to walk with people in those times and watch them find healing. I am trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy and Written Exposure Therapy both are evidence based practices to help adults with trauma. I am also trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which is an evidence based trauma treatment for children. For Depression and Anxiety I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have worked with families of children ages 4-17, children with diagnoses of ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, and PTSD as well as self harm, suicidality behaviors, and attachment issues within the family. I have worked with adults who have childhood and adult trauma as well as self harm and suicidality, as well as life changes such as divorce, marital issues, issues w/ adult children. I have a passion for working with persons in the LGBTQIA community, with a special focus on transgender issues. Coming to therapy, talking to someone you don't know is scary but therapy can truly be a place of comfort and healing. I want to help you find that place.
