Mae has always had an interest in people and their stories. In a therapeutic environment she prioritizes compassion, empathy, and approachability, while also placing a strong focus on partnering with the client to seek solutions to life’s own complexities and struggles. Mae credits her personal journey through counseling and recovery in aiding her view of one’s capacity to engage in change and healing.

Mae is a Licensed Master Social Worker and received her bachelor's degree in psychology from Belhaven University and master’s degree in social work from Louisiana State University. Mae utilizes several therapeutic modalities to best meet a client’s needs and has a special interest in supporting clients who are experiencing issues with substance/alcohol use, addictive behaviors, codependency, anxiety, and transitional stress. Mae also enjoys supporting clients who would benefit from relapse prevention skills and addiction recovery support, both at the individual and family level. She provides services to adults and adolescents (15+).

In addition to therapy, Mae has training and experience in many facets of mental health, ranging from providing therapy in substance use treatment to public speaking and training law enforcement in narcan administration. She currently serves on the board for Magnolia Recovery and Wellness Foundation and is a grateful recipient of the Champion in Recovery award at the 2021 Annual Holiday Networking Luncheon and Toy Drive. As a resident of Madison, Mae is excited to serve her community through CHH as a social worker/therapist. When not at work, Mae enjoys spending time with her husband, Patrick, and their blended family of three children, as well as their pet schnoodle.
