I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals and couples through times of challenge, transition, and growth.

I specialize in evidence-based psychotherapy such as: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) Integrated Behavioral Couples Therapy (IBCT) Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
At Resurgence Counseling Center, it is our mission to empower and nurture individuals right where they are and in all the chaos of their life to achieve balance, intention, and purpose for both their professional and personal life.
If you find yourself struggling with your relationship with food and/or body image, please consider taking that first step and reaching out. It's not easy to admit that we need help, but reaching out is the first step towards healing and finding a healthier relationship with food and your body. As someone who specializes in treating binge eating disorder, anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and disordered eating, I have the knowledge and expertise to guide you towards recovery. Whether you find yourself restricting food, compensating with exercise, bingeing, purging, or constantly dealing with body image concerns, I am here to help you navigate through these challenges. Together, we can work towards developing a healthier relationship with food, improving body image, and finding sustainable strategies for long-term recovery. Don't let these struggles define you – take that first step and reach out; the journey towards healing starts with you. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Kentucky. I have been in practice for 16 years. The last 10 years I have worked with clients in an outpatient setting. I am passionate about helping individuals recover from eating disorders. While I specialize in working with people struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, and body image concerns, I also work with people seeking treatment for non-eating related issues such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and more. I am strongly informed by the Health at Every Size (HAES) philosophy. HAES is a social movement working to promote size-acceptance and lessen the cultural obsession with weight loss, thinness and that size determines health. I believe people of all sizes deserve respect and good health. As a therapist I am compassionate and supportive, yet direct and result oriented. I enjoy using humor in sessions as well! I will work with you to build on your strengths and achieve your goals.

You are not a diagnosis. We believe that as human beings every one of us at some point would benefit from counseling or coaching. We journey with our clients to create lasting change and lives lived fully awake. Our practice is unique due to the specialty work we do. We work with high-functioning motivated individuals, couples, and families. We find that the clients who benefit most from our work are the ones who want a therapist committed to their healing and well-being and also know that life is messy and complicated. Our clients come from all over Kentucky. They are the driven perfectionists learning to find balance, the professionals who want to advance and get exhausted, and the creative types, entrepreneurs, and leaders of Kentucky. We work with couples and families who want to heal and grow together with love and respect for one another. Our clients are the people unable able to settle for a "run of the mill" life but need to find a balance so they can heal and thrive. We work with a range of emotional concerns but work best with clients who are self-reflective, and have an open mind for feedback and for change. If you believe there is always room for growth we could be a good fit for you. Our clients come in for a particular change and stick around to continue their growth.
As far as anyone around you can tell, you are doing okay (maybe even great!), but deep down you feel you are barely holding it together. You’ve spent your whole life taking care of others and ignoring your own needs for the benefit of everyone around you. It feels like no one, maybe not even yourself, knows the real you. If you truly let someone in, what if they look at you completely different? You are terrified people will reject you and see you as a burden if you are no longer the "strong one." The fears creep in each time you think about breaking down the wall you've carefully crafted to keep others from getting too close. But you’re tired of feeling so alone. You want to tear the wall down and let people see you - the real, imperfect, authentic, you. You want to let someone be there for you instead of crying alone in your car then smiling when you get home. But how do you even begin to open up and be vulnerable when you’ve held everything in for so long? That's where I can help. I help my clients explore and embrace their true selves. I will hold a warm and caring space to help you open up at a pace that feels comfortable (but possibly still scary!) for you. Call or email me to set up a free 15-minute consultation and check out my website for more information. I'd be honored to start getting to know the real you.

In my practice I try to meet clients where they are and help them reach their best level of functioning. Most of my clients are dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, stress and grief. I work with clients to help them understand their thoughts and emotions and how to improve relationships. I have worked for the last sixteen years as a college instructor so I am well aware of the challenges faced by college students. I feel the best counseling approach is to work collaboratively with clients to define and reach their personal goals. The first session will be focused on determining what those are. I have skills knowledge and experience I bring to the table, but the client is in the driver's seat. It is my hope that each client, given the safe space and guidance I provide can reach their best life.
