I love working with tweens, teens, and young adults encountering obstacles in their search for happiness and success. I am also passionate about helping families communicate more effectively and supporting parents better understand their children. My goal is to provide each client or client-family with the most effective, short-term, evidence-based psychotherapy to maximize results without maximizing your time. I am also listed on the NC Social Work and Licensure Board's list of certified Clinical Supervisors and have trained/supervised numerous MSW students and clinicians who are working towards their full LCSW license.

You’re often looked at as the strong friend but feels as if no one checks in on you. You’re worried that people would look at you as weak or a “burden”. Everything is becoming so bottled up that you aren’t even sure who you are anymore. Something needs to change, but you can’t seem to pinpoint where to start. The healing process can be frightening to begin, and I commend you for taking the first step on looking for a therapist to help you through it! Taking this journey can allow you to explore your authentic self, step into the person you want to be, and create more loving and safe spaces around you.
