Therapy involves shared exploration of your unique problems and offers meaningful insight and change. As a psychologist, my aims are to help you look more closely at the emotional and interpersonal spaces you navigate in daily life, examine how past experiences impact you in the present, and develop new perspectives and ways of being. By utilizing nonjudgmental and intentional listening and reflection, I focus on helping you translate your experience into words in order to promote change and conditions for growth. Through this process, individuals often overcome personal struggles and conflicts and live with more agency and authenticity. I am a generalist clinician and treat individuals presenting with a range of issues. My particular areas of focus include anxiety, depression, relational difficulties, and identity issues. I value individual differences and working with people of various identities and backgrounds. I welcome you to contact me with any questions about my therapeutic approach and to learn if I might be a good fit in helping you address your goals. MY EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE I started studying psychology at the University of Arkansas, where I earned my Bachelor's degree. I completed my Masters and Doctorate of Philosophy in Clinical Psychology at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and my clinical internship and postdoctoral training at SUNY Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, NY. I am licensed as a clinical psychologist in the state of Arkansas.
