I have been a licensed professional therapist for 19 years I received my Masters degree from Oral Roberts University in 2008. I have vast experience with many behavioral, social and emotional issues. I started my career working with women who were victims of domestic violence and sexual abuse. That transitioned into working with male victims and also perpetrators. This taught me how to help men with their emotional issues. Working in this field I came in contact many people who had substance abuse issues so I studied and pursued education and experience with alcohol and drug counseling. I worked in drug court and private substance abuse counseling for the last 9 years, In my practice I have gained experience helping people with depression, anxiety, trauma, abandonment, PTSD, grief, attachment, shame and anger issues. My approach is client centered therapy incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy, compassion therapy and motivational therapy. I am a Christian. If my clients want spiritual help I will utilize Biblical counseling and prayer. If it will help my patients recover I will utilize it. People who contact counselors for help want to feel safe and respected never shamed or marginalized. I believe they want to be listened to and understood. I treat everyone with compassion . I am looking forward to working with you and helping you discover healthier mental health and a happier life.

I have been a therapist for over 10 years. My full time day therapist position involves working with troubled women entangled in the legal system in various ways. I have previously worked with children, adolescents, couples, and adults. I believe that life is much too short to not be happy, and every human should reach for that goal. Each healthy relationship between two people is unique and to be treasured. At times the journey through that relationship can be tricky. This is my way of telling you that sexual orientation, race, or culture are not barriers for me. I embrace uniqueness and promote that theme. POOR COMMUNICATION IS THE NUMBER ONE REASON FOR TROUBLED RELATIONSHIPS. My counseling style is relaxed and I believe in a therapeutic relationship in which we will work to find the answer and awareness together. I believe I am here to help you find your answers. Once again let me state that I am here to help you find your answers! Laughter and humor is often the best medicine even in a therapeutic relationship. I am trained in Seeking Safety and Finding Your Best Self by Lisa Navajits. I also find the 5 Love Languages to be useful. If you are ready to take the journey towards solutions I am ready. I want to help others who want to help themselves. I will never pressure you to make future therapy sessions, but will encourage you to reach out and schedule when you are ready. I will make every effort to accommodate your schedule. I check for messages every day and will respond at a minimum within 12-18 hours.

Clients that I work with are the leaders of therapy. I will work along side you and help guide you. I believe therapy is your journey, not mine. I want to help people who struggle with everyday life and help them feel confident and happy with the choices they make. They are the ones that know what will help them the most, sometimes we just need help figuring that out. I help with validating thoughts and feelings, building coping skills, managing stressors and overall life skills. I can help people begin to express themselves in a healthy and safe way and communicate in a way that they will be heard. I have worked with individuals in an inpatient setting as well as in private practice. I have a Master's Degree in Human Relations Counseling and am licensed as an LPC and LADC. My go to approach is client centered and as I stated earlier this journey is yours, I am hopeful and confident that I can and have made a difference in people's lives for the better and I build rapport very easily and believe in each person being able to reach their goals and will help assist you in obtaining those goals.

From a young age, I’ve been deeply empathetic—drawn to people’s stories and attuned to their pain. What once felt like a tender personality trait has become a guiding force in my work. I believe every person holds inherent dignity and worth, regardless of their experiences, choices, or circumstances. This belief is the foundation of how I show up as a therapist: with compassion, curiosity, and respect. My journey into the counseling field was encouraged by my husband, who saw how naturally I connected with others. I completed my undergraduate degree in Marketing at East Central University and went on to earn a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Oklahoma. I am currently pursuing an Education Specialist (Ed.S.) degree in Marriage and Family Counseling. I specialize in couples therapy, supporting partners as they navigate challenges with communication, trust, intimacy, and emotional connection. Whether you're feeling stuck, hurting, or simply wanting to grow closer, I offer a space where both individuals can feel seen, heard, and understood. My approach focuses on helping couples build deeper understanding, develop practical tools, and reconnect with what matters most to them. In every session—whether with individuals or couples—my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and empowered to grow. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to walk through it alone. I also believe therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time. I hold healing in a sacred light, but I also appreciate the value of humor. Being able to feel free in therapy—even when facing pain—is the heart of Eremos. It’s brave to come, but many clients find it’s also a place to enjoy. Outside the therapy room, I love being married and am grateful for the fullness of life with our five children. These days, you’ll likely find me enjoying a good thriller TV series over a movie—especially if it’s a whodunit. I’d love to say I grow my own food and live in the outdoors, but let’s be honest—my life is mostly made up of ordinary moments, full hands, and small, sacred acts of courage. Reality for me isn’t glamorous, but it’s good. And it’s in the everyday that growth, connection, and healing often begin.
