Therapist Overview
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I obtained my B.A. in psychology from Southern Illinois University. My interest in male/female relationships led me to pursue a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Liberty University. But I don’t only work with families. Families are comprised of two individuals who were reared in his/her family of origin from which they developed their worldview and values. Two unique individuals come together, bringing their experiences with them into the relationship. These differences can result in conflict. My job is to help them see how the conflict arose and constructive ways to resolve To learn a couple’s earliest relationships, particularly with parents, I use Attachment Theory because our relationship with our parents impacts our adult relationships. With this info, I use CBT to help couples see how their thoughts influence their actions as related to anger, mood disturbance and substance use. 5 Love Languages to improve communication. I’ve been told that I have a gift for putting people at ease. People seem to find me easy to talk to. I believe this is because I try to not only listen to but really hear what people are saying, not just verbally but non-verbally. I believe that since I have 2 ears and 1 mouth, I should listen twice as much as I speak.
