Here for the In-Between Moments: Serving Alabama & Florida
Individual Counseling
I provide personalized support for adults navigating life transitions, career or educational changes, relationship shifts, divorce, anxiety, and depression. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I help clients build practical coping skills, manage emotions, strengthen resilience, and move toward lasting growth.
Support for Families
If you are experiencing parenting challenges, I can help. As a BCBA, I offer practical, behavior-based support to help parents better understand their child’s behavior, reduce stress, and build more effective routines and strategies at home.
Telehealth Options
Flexible options ensure therapy fits your lifestyle and location. Both online (secure telehealth platform) and in-person sessions are available to meet diverse preferences and scheduling needs.

Life is full of changes, and navigating those in between moments can feel overwhelming. Whether you are balancing friendships and career beginnings, transitioning from dependence on parents to living on your own in college or early adulthood, moving through marriage, parenthood, or rediscovering your sense of self, these transitions often bring anxiety, stress, and uncertainty. It is normal to feel lost at times, but you do not have to go through it on your own.
I support clients in working through:
- Life Transitions: From starting college or living independently for the first time, building new friendships, and adjusting to career changes, marriage, parenthood, or the challenges of midlife. These major changes and all the in between moments along the way can bring powerful emotions. Therapy provides tools, space, and guidance for navigating such phases with confidence and clarity.
- Depression and Anxiety: Together, we will identify triggers and use evidence-based strategies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to manage negative thought patterns, relieve distress, and build healthier coping skills that promote emotional balance and resilience.
- Relationships and Social Dynamics: Navigating the complexities of friendships, workplace interactions, and personal relationships while finding a balance between connection and independence. Therapy helps you strengthen communication and create more satisfying relationships.
- Rediscovering Yourself: When you feel uncertain in those in between moments of life, therapy supports you in reconnecting with your identity, values, and goals so you can move forward with clarity and purpose.
My approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). CBT helps clients recognize unhelpful thought patterns and take meaningful, actionable steps toward change. EMDR allows for processing difficult or distressing experiences, reframing the past, and moving forward with resilience and self-confidence.
Together, we will work toward greater clarity and growth, helping you manage life’s challenges, including all the in between moments, with more purpose and self-understanding.
