About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Mental Health Integrative Medicine Provider in Oklahoma and have been in the Mental Health field since 2013.
I specialize in working with teens and adults combining multiple evidence based practices to provide support in areas such as anxiety, PTSD, phobias, chronic pain/illness, emotional regulation, anger management, family structure and support, substance abuse, LGBTQ+, trauma, life skills, coping skills, weight management, diet planning and co-dependency. I incorporate mindfulness into my practice which teaches impulse control, emotional regulation, confidence and self-awareness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy challenges cognitive distortions while improving awareness of how thoughts and behaviors are connected. Exposure therapy teaches how to cope with anxiety, phobias and panic disorders. Integration of nutrition and other holistic approaches complete a well rounded mind and body.
