About Me
Hey there, I’m Callie & I am so thankful you are here. I am a Natchez, Mississippi native who discovered my calling in counseling by being the friend that everyone leaned on and turned to for support. That early experience inspired me to pursue it professionally, and over time, it has grown into my true passion. I have completed over 200 hours of training in trauma-specific modalities and approaches, as well as approximately 150 hours of training in couples counseling methods. I am also trained and certified as a trainer in a couples counseling curriculum, which allows me to help others build stronger, healthier relationships.
I have made Baton Rouge my home for the past four years with my high school sweetheart, who is now my husband, and our beloved cat, Snook, who often sneaks into the stories I share with clients. I hope one day to become a mother and to earn board certification as a licensure supervisor, so I can give back to the field in the same meaningful ways that my mentors and supervisors have given to me. Every step of my journey, both personal and professional, shapes the compassionate, relational approach I bring to therapy, and I feel privileged to walk alongside my clients as they heal and grow.

EMDR Therapy
EMDR Therapy
EMDR?
I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which is a research-backed therapy that helps individuals process and heal from trauma, distressing memories, and negative beliefs.
Through guided eye movements or other bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps the brain reprocess traumatic experiences, reducing the emotional charge and allowing for healthier perspectives. This process supports clients in reducing emotional triggers, shifting stuck patterns, and improving emotional regulation, often leading to greater clarity and relief in both individual and relational work.
Deep Brain Reorienting
Deep Brain Reorienting
DBR?
I offer Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), a brain-based therapy that works with the deepest part of the brain—the brainstem—to help regulate the nervous system and calm overactive survival responses like fight, flight, or freeze. DBR gently releases tension and unresolved shock stored in these primal areas, where trauma is often first experienced. By accessing these core regions, it supports lasting shifts in emotional regulation, a sense of safety, and the ability to connect more fully in relationships affected by trauma.
