I have been practicing as a mental health counselor since 2018 working with teens, adults, couples and families. My primary focus has been working with individuals who have experienced acute or chronic trauma and helping couples navigate relationship disruptions.  I have EMDR training and have used this method with many of my clients to help them overcome areas in their lives where they felt stuck or inhibited to grow.  I have Gottman Couples Training and use a blended style working with couples to increase their ability to connect and understand one another. I also use Neurofeedback training to help address trauma, depression, OCD and anxiety.

I work to treat the whole person, meaning that I help clients develop their mind, body, and spirit. Environments, relationships, family, and community are just as important as the individual person when it comes to lasting sustainable change.  I tailor counseling plans, dialogs, and goals to meet individual needs and backgrounds. Treating each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion is in the forefront of my practice. 

I started practicing counseling in while in Flagstaff, AZ where I worked in a hospital, a private counseling office, and an addiction recovery clinic specializing in opioid abuse. I then moved to Texas where I worked in Hospice and private counseling.  I’ve been in Arkansas since 2023 practicing here at NWA Premier Therapy while continuing to work in the hospice field on the side. I received a bachelors from Northern Arizona University and a master's degree from Arizona State University, and am currently a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

I love being outside camping, swimming, mountain biking and hiking. I also love to just sit inside and read anything from a biography to a fantasy novel.
