Our ideal client is anyone who has a strong desire to better themselves and want a better quality of life. So often we become complacent in our discontent and just settle for what we are accustomed to, but I am here to help anyone who is ready to break through that shell and demand more from life!

One of the focuses of my career is to find the points of overlap between the Christian faith and sound counseling practices. This integrated perspective informs all of my professional endeavors. As your counselor, I will use a mind-body-spirit approach to tailor treatment to your individual needs. In each session, my goal is to help you discover and develop new insights and skills to navigate through the often-turbulent waters of life. I aim to help you get results and find solutions, so the amount of time that you may need or want to see me will vary depending on your circumstances.

I like the quote, "life is not a dress rehearsal". That being said, my perspective is that by prioritizing spiritual, emotional and relational wellness, the opportunity to live your best life is within your grasp. I provide an atmosphere of compassionate listening, skills training, and emotional support in a judgement-free, safe atmosphere. As you learn to harness your strengths and apply the skills that you develop through therapy, you will quickly begin to find the confidence you need to navigate life with purpose and meaning.

I graduated from UNCG in 2007 with my masters in community counseling. After becoming fully licensed I worked in the community, school, and inpatient settings providing therapeutic services and support. With 15 years experience in multiple settings, I began to specialize in issues ranging from depression, anxiety, and trauma, to difficult transitions like parenting, divorce, and empty-nesting. I continue to see a broad range of mental health concerns, genders, and populations. I meet clients where they are and work towards their goals.

Hello! I’ve worked as a licensed counselor since 2017, with previous experience as a social worker. My focus is working with adults who have experienced trauma, anxiety, depressive symptoms, relational difficulties, family issues, substance use, and severe mental illnesses. My theoretical orientation is an integration of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution Focused Behavioral Therapy (SFBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Mindfulness. I have learned that no two people are the same and that everyone must be treated individually and holistically.

Clients often seek therapy when they or their children are experiencing distress and/or want to better understand themselves and their relationships with others and their environment. I view each client as unique and seek to gain an in-depth understanding of their life and experiences and how they impact current difficulties. Using an integrated approach to therapy and intervention, I believe in the role of a strong therapeutic relationship, working collaboratively to understand concerns, identify goals, and develop skills and knowledge leading to more adaptive functioning and improved quality of life.

Every person I serve has a unique story. While some clients experience challenges in just one area, most experience difficulty multiple areas (mental health, trauma, loss, addiction), creating a complex, vicious cycle if not all parts are addressed. The circumstances that bring someone to therapy do not come in 'neat little packages.' I enjoy sorting out the pieces with each client, getting to the root of the issue, and offering a combination of evidence-based therapeutic interventions that help clients finally begin to experience relief, and start living a happier, more fulfilled life.
