I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Alabama and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio, now living in Ohio after beginning my career in Alabama. I bring over 3 years of professional counseling experience and specialize in supporting individuals with stress, anxiety, depression, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, concentration, and memory concerns.
I also have dedicated experience working with neurodiverse individuals, including those on the autism spectrum and people navigating ADHD and related challenges. I believe that neurodiversity is a strength, and I tailor my approach to respect and affirm each person’s unique ways of thinking, learning, and experiencing the world.
My counseling style is grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I work collaboratively with clients to create personalized treatment plans and dialogue that fit their needs and honor their individuality.
Taking the first step toward therapy can be a courageous decision, and I’m proud of you for starting this journey.
