It has been said that: “God uses our deepest pain as a launchpad for our highest calling”. However, a lot of the times we become immobilized by the pains we have endured. My goal in counseling is to remind believers and non-believers that there is hope past the pain, shame, and doubt they are experiencing; through individuals, couples, family and pre-marital counseling.
Do not let shame and doubt rule over you any longer but instead gain insight and authenticity as you understand your Creator, your process and yourself more fully.
I received my Masters of Education in Clinical Mental Health and Marriage and Family Counseling at the University of Montevallo in 2013. I have been practicing for over 10 years.
I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families. I have worked a great deal with women and adolescent survivors of abusive and exploitive relationships. I am a certified Prepare-Enrich Assessment premarital counselor. Additionally, I work those struggling with anxiety, anger, codependency, communication, depression, and crises of faith issues.
I have been married for almost 14 yrs to the love of my life, we live in Hoover, Alabama with our 2 high energy boys. In my spare time, I enjoy going to Burn Boot Camp, cooking healthy meals, spending time with my boys, reading, being at the beach and hanging with family.
