I am a passionate clinician excited to offer the tools, support and guidance needed to help you be your best self now. Services are provided in a professional, safe, and comfortable environment. I've worked with children, adolescents, and families for over 20 years.

I believe that we are destined to relive those negative experiences of life left unresolved. Thoughts, feelings, behaviors related to an early experience or trauma resurface and become obstacles in life. My mission is to help others live the life they envisioned before the hurt and to cope with everyday stressors in a healthy way. I've witnessed even the smallest change improve a person's quality of life.

 It is my passion to equip clients with the tools to overcome circumstances that life has dealt them. I enjoy therapy and working with a myriad of age groups and concerns. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I collaborate with clients to develop achievable/realistic goals that will improve their current life circumstances. I take a relatable approach in therapy creating an environment that invites clients to safely share. Ask yourself, "What in my life has hindered me?" Let's identify together and develop solutions. You can dream again. You can believe in yourself again. Your creative skills can produce masterpieces again. You can feel comfortable again and be confident. You can be happy. You have the power to take control over your own life again!  I’m here to help you remove the obstacles and find joy again! 

Are you feeling stuck in a negative cycle of managing unrealistic expectations, struggling with low self-esteem, battling anxiety & depression or other mental health challenges? Let's work together to cultivate the life you deserve. I am here to help you navigate life stressors, improve your coping strategies, and guide you along your journey towards self-acceptance.  I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC). I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Alabama and my Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and son, traveling, trying new foods, and creating content!  My approach is highly personalized, integrating innovative, evidence-based techniques to help my clients along their journey to self-acceptance and achieve powerful change. I use the following modalities: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, and motivational interviewing. I would be honored to be a part of your journey towards greater self-acceptance! I know this process can be uplifting and potentially life changing. If you'd like to start your journey today, let's connect!

I have been a Marriage & Family Therapy Associate Counselor Since July 2021. My first career was that of a Registered Nurse. I became a Marriage and Family Therapist because I felt in my heart that Counseling was the road that I should pursue after counseling couples and individuals at Church. I got so excited after counseling with the clients. I enjoyed encouraging them, affirming them, valuing each person and collaborating with them to find functional solutions to the challenges in their relationships and exchanges. I finished by MA degree in Marriage and Family Therapy Counseling from Liberty University in 2017. I have a variety of experience working with children, adults, couples, individuals, and groups from community agencies, nonprofits, residential facilities, and out-patient treatment centers. I am currently under the Supervision of Dr. Jenny Haines, LPC, MFT-S, PhD and working towards independent licensing. It brings me joy to partner with my clients on their transformation journey and my hope and prayer is

that we can work together towards reaching their optimum mental health goals.

I've worked with Keener Counseling Services for 3 years, but I retired from JBS Mental Health and have an extensive work experience in the mental health field.

I help to found Keener Counseling Services. I've been with the agency for over 5 years. I have worked in mental health for many years and retired from Gateway Family Counseling.
