Our therapists offer PTSD & trauma therapy in Tuscaloosa, AL

I've worked in mental health for almost 20 years. I graduated from the University of Alabama at Birmingham with a Bachelor's in Psychology and earned a Master's in Professional Counseling from Lipscomb University. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience providing individual and family counseling in Tennessee and Alabama. I work with clients dealing with life changes, and self-doubt. Common challenges include anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, and past trauma. Client goals typically involve finding emotional balance, building healthy boundaries, and improving communication to achieve personal clarity.

Clients can expect a safe, nonjudgmental space to share feelings. You'll learn practical tools to change negative thought patterns, cope with daily stress and life changes, and improve relationships. Sessions include active listening, clear practice steps, and honest feedback to track your growth.

Taking the first step takes courage. Your feelings are valid, you don't have to carry this alone, and healing is entirely possible. You deserve a nonjudgmental space where your voice is heard and experiences are honored. Together we can work through life's challenges, build your resilience and create a fulfilling path forward.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with 10 years of experience. I specialize in supporting clients through anxiety, trauma, self-doubt, life transitions, and relationship challenges.

My goal is to provide tools that guide you toward clarity, confidence, and healthier ways of coping with life’s challenges.

I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Alabama. My work draws from evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based practices, and person-centered counseling. I am committed to meeting you where you are with empathy and practical strategies for meaningful change.

I provide a safe and nonjudgmental space where you can explore challenges and discover new coping methods. With warmth and guidance, I help you build confidence, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful change. You don’t have to do this alone because I’ll walk with you at your own pace toward healing and growth.
