    About

    Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker at Inspired by DEE Counseling in Tulsa, OK. I graduated from the University of Oklahoma, with a Master of Social Work in 2012.  I am also an EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)  certified therapist.  I have worked in the mental health field for the last 15 years with various populations including adolescents, adults, and families within the school, office, and home settings.  I have spent 14 years working in community mental health before joining private practice as a therapist. I am so glad you found me and I am looking forward to working with you as you take this step in your journey.

    My clients are motivated and committed to making changes in their lives and overcoming trauma reactions or past distressing events. My clients may also be struggling with negative beliefs about themselves that lead to feelings of depression, anxiety, low self-esteem or low self-worth, and struggles in relationships. I love providing them with the tools to overcome these challenges in a secure and supportive environment.

    Mission

    At Inspired by DEE Counseling, I am inspired by determination, empowerment, and empathy. Inspired by determination to face struggles, take the first steps and manage your life. Inspired by empowerment through support systems and good connections, which I believe to be very important for every therapeutic relationship. And, inspired by empathy through the power of being able to understand, connect, feel compassion, and build relationships.

    I aim to help you better understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, what they mean, and how they relate to your present-day struggles and challenges.  Together, we will work to deepen your awareness so you may experience a more fulfilling life.

    I aim to approach every client with an open mind and never make assumptions about your life experiences. Every individual faces unique challenges and needs to work on themselves at their own pace, and I’m here to help you along your distinct path towards acceptance.
