Hello and welcome. My passion is to provide a safe space for you to overcome life challenges. I specialize in supporting individuals and front line workers who are navigating stress, overwhelm, anxiety, depression, life transitions and trauma exposure. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and EMDR Certified Therapist. I offer online therapy for adults throughout Oklahoma.
I like to keep things real. With humor, compassion, and evidence-based strategies, I will provide support that meets you where you are. Reaching out is big step. I do my best to respond promptly. You don't have to carry this alone, support is here when you're ready.
PRIMARY MODALITIES:
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy
Mindfulness-Based
Strength-Based
My practice days are Monday-Thursday, with open times listed each week on my schedule. I typically check messages a few times a day.
Please remember, BetterHelp (or your specialty site) is not for crisis situations. If you're in immediate distress, call 911 or local emergency services. If you need immediate emotional support, call 988 to speak to a crisis counselor with the national mental health hotline.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
