About

Life transitions have a way of leaving you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of what comes next. Whether you're dealing with decision fatigue, anxiety, depression, or grief from loss, caregiving, relationship changes, or unmet expectations, you don't have to navigate it alone. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel truly heard and find clarity. Together, we'll build a practical, strengths-based plan to help you move forward with confidence. For over 15 years, I've supported individuals navigating change and emotional overwhelm. My counseling work specializes in life transitions, including relationship shifts, career changes, divorce, college challenges, aging, caregiving, and grief or loss. During times of uncertainty, I help people feel grounded, supported, and genuinely understood. My approach to therapy blends compassion with a direct, honest style. I'll offer genuine support while gently challenging you to grow and build resilience. We'll focus on healing by setting clear goals and taking manageable, meaningful steps forward. Flexible scheduling helps counseling fit into your life, not the other way around. Reach out to schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation. Specialties: I specialize in helping clients navigate challenges that stem from life transitions. I am experienced with supporting individuals who feel stuck, struggle with decision fatigue, or cope with anxiety and depression. You don't have to face these challenges alone. I focus on providing a safe, compassionate space where you can share your feelings openly. Together, we will create a practical plan that draws on your unique strengths to move your life forward in a positive direction. Book with me now by clicking on my website. Credentials & Experience: I support individuals and families navigating the most challenging moments of their lives — including loss, grief, and major life transitions. With extensive clinical training and education, I am licensed to practice in both Alabama and Georgia, enabling me to compassionately and effectively guide clients through difficult times with confidence and expertise.
