I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker offering individual counseling services in Alabama and Florida, with over 17 years of experience supporting adults and older adults through life’s challenges. I work with clients facing concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, and significant life transitions, and I also provide Christian counseling for those who wish to incorporate their faith into the healing process.
I am passionate about creating a space where you feel safe, heard, and respected. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, allowing us to explore your thoughts and emotions at your pace while gaining clarity and insight. I believe each person has strengths and resilience, even during difficult seasons, and my goal is to help you reconnect with those strengths and see your full potential.
Together, we will develop a treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs, helping you move toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life. I offer services in both English and Spanish. If you are ready to take the next step toward emotional wellness and personal growth, I invite you to reach out to schedule a consultation. You do not have to walk this journey alone.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
