It is 2021. We have learned SO much about what works, and what does not work in behavioral health. With over 20 years experience, I have completed over 20,000 client hours, and have seen incredible people achieve incredible things despite impossible odds. I LOVE what I do both as an artist and as a scientist.






One of the most important lessons I've learned is not one person is at the END of their story. Every life story is still being written. If you are alive, there is still time for things to work out well. Plus, over the last 20 years I've accumulated TONS of workarounds to help with even the most impossible situations.






My specialties are depression, anxiety, Bipolar disorder, adult survivors of sexual trauma, and couples recovery from affairs.  I love working with college students and have been nominated faculty of the years in both 2020 and 2021 (University of Phoenix). I also offer faith-based help. 






I believe in doing EVERYTHING you enjoy, with a reasonable amount of responsibility and discipline.  I am a certified lifeguard and teach water aerobics twice a week. I am the first black woman on the school board in my town. I run a nonprofit that helps students get scholarships for college. I live in small town with my husband, two daughters, and our dog Fred.
