I consider myself a therapist with a coaching lens and offer coaching and counseling services. I am flexible in understanding and relating to diverse views, beliefs, and perspectives. Of most importance is my relationship with the client; thus, I am here to work in harmony with the client’s personal experience.  Through compassion I will support you in being the best version of yourself, connecting with your own resourcefulness to align with your values.  Below are the details of my education and training.

I earned my Masters in Social Work from Louisiana State University in 2001 and I have been in clinical social work since that time.  I am licensed with the Louisiana State Board of Social Work Examiners, License #9655 since 2007.  I was previously licensed by the Texas State Board of Social Work Examiners from 2001-2011, License #36464.  In 2022, I completed a certification in Accelerated Resolution Therapy and use this therapy regularly.

In January of 2019, I completed a 14 month Effective Leadership and Coaching Course through the Newfield Institute of Australia .  It is an Accredited Coach Training Program with the International Coaching Federation.  Further, I have attended personal development workshops on coaching for many years and completed continuing education hours on coaching methods.
