I’m an Oklahoma transplant who has called Tulsa “home” since 2010. I earned my Ph.D. in Counselor Education & Supervision from the University of Arkansas and now work as a therapist, consultant, and Professor of Psychology & Counseling at Northeastern State University. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-Supervisor, certified pK-12 school counselor, and Nationally Certified Counselor, I’ve provided therapy services for a variety of mental health issues with children, teens, adults, couples, and families.
In 2016, I was recognized as a DaVinci Fellow for creativity in teaching and research for my publications and presentations on wellness and well-being practices. In 2017, I was named to Oklahoma Magazine’s 40 under 40 class of business professionals, and in both 2021 and 2024, I was named a finalist for TulsaKids Magazine Family Favorite Therapist (Mental Health/Health & Wellness categories). I continue to feel thankful for the opportunity to serve individuals and communities in research, education, consulting, and therapy practices.
Outside of work, I delight in the simple things — quality time with friends and family (especially my husband and son!), traveling, outdoor activities, Kansas City sports, sharing desserts, reading, and exploring all things “local.”
