LPC

Female

Hello! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and have been practicing since 2014. I have a Bachelor of Science in Social Work from Radford University (1992), Master of Arts in Education from Norfolk State University (1997), and Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Adams State University (2015). I was a high school teacher for 21 years teaching students with special needs before beginning my career in clinical counseling. I currently work full time for Veteran Affairs and part time for Sondermind. I've had extensive instruction in treating trauma/PTSD and I am certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). As well, I am trained in Integrative Behavioral Couples Therapy (IBCT) and Cognitive Behavioral Conjoint Therapy for PTSD (CBCT-P). As an LPC, I specialize in supporting adolescent and adult clients experiencing difficulties with life transitions, career challenges, self-esteem, managing stress, identity exploration, depression and anxiety. I utilize person-centered, cognitive-behavioral, and strength based approaches with an emphasis on trauma informed care. I believe counseling should be collaborative as you are the expert on you - I like to meet clients where they are and tailor treatment to meet their individualized needs. I pride myself on being warm and direct, nonjudgmental, an empathic listener, and a therapist you can relate to (I'm as real as it gets!). Continuing your personal work is wonderful gift to yourself - Godspeed.

How do we select providers listed on PsychHub.com?

The care options presented consist of treatment providers that we have assessed to be quality providers across a range of services for mental health, substance use, relationships, and other well-being needs. We aim to include only high quality providers and multiple viable options for those seeking care.

What is the relationship between Psych Hub and these providers?

The providers listed on our site are all independent entities from Psych Hub. We only list providers where we have a contractual relationship with a network, group, or practice that a provider is a part of, or where we have a direct contractual relationship with the provider. That contract governs the terms of participation on the Psych Hub site, and in some cases, as mentioned below, the provider’s, group’s, or network’s use of Psych Hub's educational content. There is no other affiliation between Psych Hub and the providers listed on our site.

Do participating providers pay us?

To make our site free for consumers, Psych Hub receives fees from provider groups, networks, or individual providers to connect with potential clients who are a fit for their services. Some also purchase Psych Hub's educational content for practitioner training and client support. These fees enable us to operate our service, including screening and updating information on each provider.

How do we determine which ones to display?

Rather than make specific provider recommendations, we present options and information so you can make an informed decision on what provider best fits your needs. Where we have multiple participating providers, we present multiple options (and where we don't, we prioritize adding more options to our site over time). We present providers whose capabilities, insurance coverage, availability and other attributes best match your stated needs. If many providers appear to equally meet your needs, we display a selection of them at random. Our decision on which participating providers to display is never impacted by the amount of fees we receive from them.

What causes us to remove providers from our site?

We require that providers meet all licensing requirements of states where they offer services. If a provider loses their license, they are removed from our site for that state or service. We also seek feedback from users on providers they find on our site. We investigate significant negative feedback and remove providers if we conclude that to be appropriate.
