Licensed Professional Counselor in Barboursville, WV

About My Clients

I help those who fear their next panic attack, feel trapped in OCD compulsions, or struggle with overwhelming anxiety. Many challenges come from resisting distress, only to feel more stuck. If depression has left you isolated and disconnected, I want to help you break that cycle and rediscover joy. I also work to heal misunderstandings between loved ones and provide clarity in situations of abuse or exploitation—ensuring you get the respect and support you deserve. Let’s find a way forward!

My Background and Approach

I take the time to truly understand your challenges, rather than assuming your situation is like everyone else’s. With a diverse set of tools, I can help you navigate your struggles and set realistic expectations for growth and healing. In my experience, one of the most common reasons people seek therapy is the pain caused by others. Processing trauma is essential to rebuilding a positive sense of self and a hopeful outlook for the future. I have specialized training in EMDR, an evidence-based approach to trauma treatment that I’ve found to be both effective and approachable. Early in my career, I worked in a short-term residential substance abuse rehab, gaining extensive experience in addictions treatment culminating in me being certified as an Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I also have a strong background in behavioral therapies, which I often use as a starting point because they offer a structured, practical path to symptom relief.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe we live in an imperfect society where structural changes could create greater prosperity and empower people to participate more fully in their lives. I strive to be an ally and advocate, offering support when it’s needed and deep empathy for the challenges that come with being human. To me, a disorder is anything that keeps you from living the life you want. When we work together to help you do more of what truly matters to you, everyone benefits.
