Licensed Clinical Social Workers

“Are you currently feeling STUCK in managing your mental wellbeing or having difficulty managing trauma and current issues that are creating barriers to your happiness? I help individuals with overcoming obstacles by GAINING MOMENTUM in their lives so that they can become the greatest versions of themselves.”

About Me

Feeling stuck, perhaps by trauma or current issues, can block your path to happiness. I help individuals overcome these obstacles, guiding you to start gaining momentum in your life. We'll explore what's holding you back and develop practical strategies together. This collaborative process helps clients uncover their strengths. My aim is to support you in becoming your greatest self, moving forward with clarity.

Approach

When momentum feels out of reach, I help you map small, practical shifts that create forward motion and restore choice. Sessions in Evansville or via secure online video in English are paced to your needs—sometimes gentle and exploratory for trauma, sometimes focused and active for stress and transitions. You’ll try short, doable experiments between meetings—brief practices, reflection prompts and real-world steps—so progress becomes visible and adaptable. People facing burnout, life changes or stuck patterns often find this steady, practical approach helpful.
