About Me

I practice EMDR from a Christian worldview and see helping hurting people as a calling from God. I attempt to integrate Biblical truths with the best and latest peer reviewed research. My EMDR practice uses interventions that use fast and gentle indirect approaches. I am trained in Flash technique, memory reconsolidation, and EMDR 2.0. In my spare time, I am a volunteer firefighter with our local fire department.

Education & Experience

I hold a MS degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Freed-Hardeman University. I am a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, a Certified DBT therapist, and a Certified EMDR clinician and am an approved EMDR Consultant. My primary responsibilities center around complex trauma and chronic pain treatment.
