I'm an ordained clergywoman, have a Dr. of Ministry degree, endorsed by the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, a KY Licensed Pastoral Counselor, and credentialed a an ACPE Psychotherapist. I'm qualified to offer pastoral care, pastoral counseling and pastoral psychotherapy, and life coaching. Pastoral counseling calls for the integration of psychology and spirituality/religion when applicable to the Client. My own theology is moderate and leans to the left. While I'm a Christian attending Highland Baptist Church, I've also been trained to work with those of other faith traditions. In addition, Clients are accepted as they are; some Clients aren't in need of a spiritual/religious emphasis in their therapy, and I use a more secular approach with them. In addition to offering therapy, I also offer clinical supervision and train others in the art of pastoral counseling. Training is at the post-doctoral level and prepares those who desire licensure in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

I like to help adolescents, adults, and couples resolve issues they may be facing in their individual lives as well as within their relationships and families. I concentrate on finding solutions, identifying strengths, and helping clients get through the emotional barriers that keep them from moving forward. I believe an important factor in having a good therapeutic experience is creating a strong rapport with your therapist and I strive to make the process as easy as possible. I believe my professional experience, education, and personal life experiences help me to be a caring and effective therapist. I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families who are ready to change the way they are feeling, thinking, and interacting with one another. My method as a therapist is to be respectful, straightforward, and interactional. My approach is supportive, non-judgmental, and direct, though always compassionate. The office location that I have chosen is quiet, confidential and discrete. This location is also convenient to all areas of Louisville and Southern Indiana and can easily be accessed by the Watterson Expressway (I-264) at the Brownsboro Road exit.

Our work together will be client-centered and built upon evidence based therapies to direct me in helping you create optimal outcomes. I have helped my clients reach and maintain multiple goals using proven therapeutic techniques and I can help you do the same. I pride myself on complete confidentiality, a non-judgmental philosophy and a sliding scale fee to make therapy approachable, comfortable and reachable for all.
