I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Spanish from Vanderbilt University and a Master's in Social Work from Tulane University. When I'm not in session, you'll find me on my large farm surrounded by many animals! I'm married and the proud parent of two teenagers, so I know a thing or two about balancing life's joys and chaos. My approach I bring warmth, empathy, and a practical approach to therapy. My approach to therapy is collaborative and evidence-based, primarily using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT). I believe in empowering clients by helping them identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns while focusing on practical, actionable solutions. My care is rooted in creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard and supported as they work toward meaningful change.
