My resume – like my life – is a rich tapestry of experiences. I traveled extensively with my husband while he was in the military, which gave me the opportunity to meet people from a variety of backgrounds and cultures. It also taught me flexibility.

When my husband retired from the military, we moved back to Tulsa where I worked as a teacher and counselor for private and public schools, including my alma mater, Will Rogers High School. I worked with students, as well as their teachers, parents, and the school administrators.

All these experiences helped to shape my holistic approach to therapy. I believe in addressing the whole person – mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I work with women, men and couples 16 and older, as well as Veterans and their families. I help my clients address a variety of issues including anxiety, stress, depression, grief/loss, trauma, and PTSD and give my clients the tools they need to enhance their lives.

If we agree to work together, you can expect eclectic combination of therapeutic models including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Anxiety Reduction, Stress Relief, and Narrative. If your Christian faith is a source of strength and comfort for you, I can incorporate that into the counseling process, as well. But most importantly, we will talk regularly about what’s working and not working for you and adjust as needed.

When I’m not in the office, I enjoy traveling with my husband, sailing, reading and spending time with my family.
