I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a National Certified Counselor. I graduated from the Community Counseling graduate program through SWOSU. I received by Bachelor’s degree from OU. I have mostly worked with children, adolescents, and their families. I thoroughly enjoy working with adolescents and being able to provide them with support through that difficult life stage and the transition to adulthood. I consider myself to have an eclectic theoretical approach to counseling. I feel that it is important to pull from many different theories to be able to meet the client’s individual needs. I have worked extensively with clients who have experienced trauma and have gone through extensive trauma training. Most of us have experienced some form of trauma so I feel very strongly that counselors need to have a great deal of training in this area. When the F5 tornado hit Moore in 2013, I worked with an agency that was one of the primary agencies who assisted in the recovery of the community. I have been with CPC since August 2015 and have been the clinical director for the past 6 months. It is my responsibility to ensure that our therapists are providing quality care to our clients and meeting their needs. I look forward to working with you and your family. I believe everyone deserves happiness and is capable of being in the driver’s seat of their own life, sometimes it just takes some support to reach that goal.
