Welcome! I’m a psychologist based in Louisville, KY, with over ten years of clinical experience. While I’ve worked with folx across the lifespan, my practice currently focuses exclusively on adults (18+).
Before moving into full-time private practice, I worked in university counseling centers providing direct care and supervising doctoral students—a role that solidified my deep love for training the next generation of therapists.
My work is heavily informed by research on the “living legacy” of trauma—specifically how past experiences can stay trapped in the mind and body long after the event is over. Beyond focusing on the narrative of a traumatic event, which when poorly timed can worsen symptoms, I work to help you regulate your nervous system and feel more present, connected, compassionate and in a mindset where you can start to live the life you want.
On a personal note, I’m a West Virginia native (go Mountaineers!), a mom, and a wife. When I’m not in the office, you’ll usually find me spending time with my family, cheering a bit too loudly at sports games, or hanging out in the garden—though I owe full credit to my spouse for doing all the watering!
I know that a strong, genuine connection is at the heart of good therapy. Feel free to reach out and schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’d be a good fit to work together.
