Under the Supervision of David R. Stephens LPC-S, NCC
I believe that everyone needs someone to talk to on a regular basis about their mental wellbeing and about life. Life is messy and it is full of ups, downs, and uncertainty. I pride myself on being that person for anyone going through the strife that life throws at them. I enjoy listening to people and look forward to the opportunity to help people navigate the highs and lows, the ups and downs, and the general complexity that is life.
​
For the last few years I have worked with Pornography, Sex, and Love addiction counseling. My focus in on helping men and women through the process of recovery. It is a long road towards gaining recovery and serenity and I aim to help with that process.
​
My experience with Pornography and Sex addiction has come through a number of facets including a faith based approach as well as a secular approach. I am currently an Associate Sex Addiction Therapist Candidate (ASAT-C) and working towards full licensure as a CSAT. I am well acquainted with the 12-Step Process through Sexaholics Anonymous, Sex Addicts Anonymous, and Sex & Love Addicts Anonymous. Additionally, I understand and have experience with Celebrate Recovery, The 7 Pillars of Freedom, & Patrick Carnes' Gentle Path Through the 12-Steps.
​
In addition to working with various addictions I also work with general mental illness including: ADHD, OCD, Anxiety, Depression, Spiritual Issues, Men's Issues, and doing various problem solving in my client's lives.
I currently have my Masters in Counseling and my Masters in Religion from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in South Hamilton, Massachusetts. I also have a Bachelors in Psychology from Gordon College in Wenham, Massachusetts. I am an ALC with the State of Alabama and under the supervision of David R. Stephens LCP-S, NCC of Advanced Behavioral Health here in Downtown Huntsville.
I am a Huntsville transplant having moved here in late 2021; however, I'm married to a Huntsville local. I spent a long time in New England for school but I am a Yankee from New York. This is apropos since I am also a New York Yankees fan but I am also more reasonably a Buffalo Bills fan. I have loved living here in Huntsville! It is truly an amazing city with wonderful people with a rich and diverse history.
