Ever since high school, I knew I wanted to be a therapist. I declared a major in psychology during my college freshman orientation and never looked back. It wasn't until graduate school that I realized my passion for helping children, adolescents, and their families. I can't imagine doing anything else, and I'm grateful every day for the opportunity to support children and their families.​

 

In addition to being a therapist, I am a military spouse, aunt, dog mom, avid crafter, and outdoor enthusiast. Whether I'm hiking, playing with my beloved dog, Ava, or camping with my husband, you'll most likely find me enjoying nature in my spare time. In fact, Riverbank Counseling & Play Therapy is named after my favorite spot deep in the Arkansas Ozark Mountains called the Buffalo National River. The Buffalo River has been my refuge where I found peace, inspiration, restoration, and discovered my strength.

 

When creating Riverbank, I knew I wanted it to be a place of refuge just as it has been for me. Somewhere my clients and their families could come to explore, learn, heal, and overcome.​​
