I graduated from Western Kentucky University in 2001 with a Bachelor of Science in Social Work and again in 2005 with a Master of Social Work. After moving to Arkansas, I began a counseling career at Ozark Guidance working with adolescents and families affected by abuse, trauma, and mental illness.

In 2010, our family relocated to Southern California where my husband joined the staff of Saddleback Church. We had the sweet opportunity to learn from one of the best churches in the world in the areas of recovery, mental health, the church, and loving the “least of these.”

A year later, we returned to Northwest Arkansas and I joined the Ozark Guidance team once again, providing therapy to foster children and foster families.

Now, in my private counseling practice, I provide individual, marriage, and family counseling. I have a passion to help people who are battling fear, trauma, and depression to get unstuck and to flourish.

I have specialized training in the areas of recovery and trauma. My husband and I reside in Northwest Arkansas with our three kiddos, about whom we are crazy! My greatest desire as a therapist is to give you the space to tell your story, help you identify your struggles, and then move forward toward healing.
