Therapists in Mississippi

I believe that everyone should have a safe space where they can be heard and helped to navigate the difficulties in life and relationships. I am currently seeing all clients via Zoom and servicing clients in Mississippi and Oklahoma. We do accept Cigna and Aetna Insurance for Oklahoma Clients.

Life can be filled with heartbreak(s), disappointments and frustrations that lead one to feel hopeless and filled with despair. Unfortunately, during this time you feel alone, or you feel like no one understands what you are going through. The veil of resilience and compassion is important and necessary to put the following four concepts in perspective to help give clarity to a situation: 1. Insight 2. Self-Esteem 3. Action 4. Healing. There are no issues too great for an individual to overcome if they put forth the effort. Therapy is a process that promotes change and encourages an individual to seek their self-selecting truth.

Being a therapist motivates and give me purpose. Everyone experience life changes, but not everyone is prepared to manage the emotional, physical, social or financial changes that come with life changes. Feelings emotionally overwhelmed can affect the ability to make rational decisions. The inability to make rational decisions disrupts connection with self, reality, family and friends. As a Licensed Clinical social worker I am licensed to diagnose and treat. You are not alone and should never feel you are. I practice in an outpatient setting. My passion is helping patients move from a place of despair to optimism.

My primary role as your counselor is to focus on the relationship with you.. Your wellbeing is the main focus of the therapeutic relationship. While providing you a safe and confidential environment, I will be with you every step of the way on your journey toward healing and self discovery. My approach in the counseling relationship is not as an expert. Instead, my approach is as a supportive guide to help you reach your goals. I have a wealth of professional and personal experience working with a diverse population. This includes individuals, couples, families and children of all ages.

Feeling stuck in a rut, but scared to leave the comfort zone? Anxious about the future and still nursing wounds of the past? Life is full of difficult experiences that drain resources, limit motivation, and prevent forward motion. Overwhelming feelings like shame, anger, grief, and/or depression do not have to last.

My aim as a psychotherapist is to provide a supportive and safe environment where open expression and exploration of thoughts and feelings can freely take place. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor trained in motivational interviewing, and multiple behavioral therapies. I have prior experience as a therapist as an addiction counselor, child and family therapist, as well as those in the inpatient psychiatric setting. With better awareness, we can identify life goals, change undesirable behaviors, improve relationship patterns and achieve greater self-acceptance.

Are you a caregiver struggling with grief related to a loved one's physical and/or cognitive decline? Is depression and anxiety become your norm due to loss, caregiving stress, or aging challenges? Let's work together and try some new effective ways to increase your life satisfaction. I will help you with supportive counseling, building coping skills and improving your wellbeing.

A therapy session is a judgment-free space for someone to share what they’ve been struggling with. It’s a collaborative experience with a counselor who is there to listen and empower you to reach your goals. Everyone runs into some challenges over the course of their life, and counseling is a fantastic chance to raise their awareness of roadblocks to living the life they want to be living. Throughout counseling, you can expect to grow in awareness and perspective, work towards the goals you have for your life, and do it all in a safe, judgment-free environment.

The therapeutic journey is one that requires commitment and a bond that leads to trust and understanding. My goal is to provide each individual I serve an environment that is safe and confidential to share their story and true self. I use a person-centered, strength-based approach that puts you in the driver seat of your own treatment and I am the facilitator guiding you through each step. I believe that the feelings we experience (sadness, anger, fear, frustration, etc.) can be linked back to a root cause that needs to be addressed. I help you uncover, address, and cope with those circumstances.

We either know, understand, and accept our stories, or our stories will live us. Clients working with me receive a strategic plan that guides them through a process of connecting their past to their present in order to grow in self-compassion, peace of mind, and self-control. I am a trauma trained therapist and focus on shame, grief, and existential/spiritually related issues in therapy.

I have a passion to teach individuals how to walk in their truth! In the process, I guide and encourage that cultivation through my compassion and multifaceted skill set. I have spent many years working with individuals and their families with addressing a multitude of concerns that led to problematic behavior that created functional dysfunction. My primary goal is to assist with them having awareness, acceptance, and then taking action with making what was once uncomfortable, comfortable; which is where the truth and the living begins.

I recognize that making the decision to contact a therapist is difficult for some therefore, my goal is to make the process as comfortable as possible. I work in a relaxed, informal manner that is collaborative in nature. I often use humor in my therapy sessions and take every possible measure to ensure that my office is a safe place for clients to freely cry or express anger as they need. Finally, I work from an integrative perspective that draws from a variety of theoretical approaches as I tailor my approach to the needs and preferences of my clients.

My experience is diversified with a wide variety of populations and settings including adults with chronic illnesses in hospitals, homeless children and their families, and expecting and postpartum mothers in an outpatient women’s health clinic. I have a colorful resume that has deeply influenced my ability to connect and relate to my clients that present with a multitude of backgrounds and dilemmas such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, bereavement, and trauma. My ideal client is someone who is motivated and receptive to change and eager to work together to improve their circumstances.

We all want to be heard, accepted, loved, and understood regardless of the issues or life circumstances we are facing. Whether you struggle with anxiety/depression or you have a diagnosed disorder that causes impairment in your daily function, I can help with a renewed perspective, coping skills, and safe place to talk. My Mission statement is Restore, Renew, Refresh. Ephesians 6:16 “In all circumstances take up the shield of faith...". Counseling is a process, not a one and done deal. Healing and growth require a person to work 100% of the time emotionally, mentally, and physically.

We hear "Life is Short" however, life can seem very long when you and your loved ones are struggling with life's challenges.
