About

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Supervisor in Louisiana and Texas. I have over 10 years of experience working with a wide variety of clients. I meet the client where they are in their journey through life and help bring them to the next level. I have a cognitive behavior approach with a background in addiction, work stress, divorce, parenting, anger management, grief, trauma and relationship issues.

I help people through life's hiccups. I believe in treating people with respect, sensitivity and compassion but I will not sugar coat what you're going through. I am not a yes person. I help you move through what's happening so you can be better prepared for the next step in your life. I may meet you where you are but I won't leave you there. I give you real tools to move forward and at the same time, take care of yourself. You are the only You that you have and You are worth it, whatever that IT is for you. So, take the first step towards healing and change. I'm ready to support and empower you.
