Born and raised in Oklahoma, I’m a Cherokee native. I’m a wife of 30 years, a mom of 3 zany offspring, a therapist and a fellow trauma survivor.
I graduated with a Master of Arts in Marriage & Family Therapy from Southern Nazarene University. After graduation, I worked with a community mental health agency in the school system for several years. Then I joined a wonderful group practice and began working with adults and older teens, focusing on how difficult experiences continue to present in our life long after we’ve survived them.
Now in my own practice, I work with adults, helping to lower anxiety, and increase personal power to overcome negative experiences by releasing charged emotional material. I am an EMDR CIT and focus on early trauma experiences. I am also trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Chronic Pain Management.
