Hey, let’s talk. I am a licensed clinical Social Worker in Alabama with 20 years of social work experience. I have worked with a wide spectrum of patients with concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, homelessness, life changes and substance abuse. I also helped many people who have experienced grief and loss and pregnancy loss/infertility.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe everyone deserves to be treated respect, sensitivity, dignity, and common courtesy. My approach combines strengths perspective, solution focused, and humanistic therapy.
I provide an honest, judgement free environment to discuss what issues you are facing. Life is hard and we all need someone to talk to and that’s why I’m here. Let me help you navigate through life’s changes.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life. You are taking the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
