My career as a counselor began in 1997;however, I was certified. I have returned to the University of Lenoir Rhyne College and now have a Masters in Mental Health Counseling. I am dually licensed mental health and substance abuse. Personally, I believe counseling has a stigma, unwarranted. Everyone needs help during difficult times in our life and I am speaking from experience. After my mother died, I felt a sense of loss and desperation. I realized in healing it was something I couldn't do alone. I am thankful for my grief counselor. Now I hope to provide the same refuge for anyone hurting. Please try! I will help!

It can be difficult to process our life experiences through the expectations we may feel from others and ourselves. What does our suffering, struggles, and experiences say about who we are? My desire is to provide a safe and brave place for individuals who may need to process and make sense of their experiences. I have worked with adults who have experienced depression, anxiety, trauma, relational issues, and adults who have needed coping skills and are in the middle of life transitions.

You've tried a lot of things to try to feel better... self-care, breathing exercises, stress management, maybe you've even seen a couple of therapists. But the things you struggle with like worry, depression, anger, loneliness, self-criticism and fear that things won't ever change just keep coming back up. Maybe you've lost some relationships or turned to something harmful to make you feel temporarily better. You're not messed up or broken. At some point in life, maybe as a child, your body learned how to protect itself from hurt when you needed protection most. Time has moved on but you still feel stuck. That's where EMDR comes in.

Do you find yourself struggling with frequent worries, anxiety, depression, memories from the past? You want to move forward, live freely, and truly enjoy life, work, and meaningful relationships with others. You have goals you want to achieve and are tired of feeling held back. Through reflection you realize that many of these struggles are tied to the past... perhaps to childhood experiences, unhealthy relationships, trauma, or past difficult situations you went through. Perhaps you can't even quite identify the reason, you just feel a heavy emotional burden and that something is holding you back.

I consider it my personal mission to reduce the divorce rate in the United States, 1 couple at a time. But preventing divorce will only be succesful if, in place of unfulfilling or chronically dysfunctional marriages, couples develop truly thriving marriages & deeply fulfilling relationships. Even in the most hopeless-seeming cases, couples can heal the damage from the past and move forward in a healthier way. Not all marriages can be saved, but when couples do the work to heal the past, their future can be happier, no matter what the outcome for the relationship.

Many of my clients say that, in one way or another, their life just seems disjointed, frustrating, overwhelming, lonely and confusing. Sometimes that is a description of their inner state of mind, or it could describe how they feel within their most personal relationships. Others report a significant life change that has thrown them off course. It could be a career crossroad, a traumatic event/upbringing, a relational struggle, or a spiritual battle that brings them to seek therapy.

I work with people who feel overwhelmed - by relationships, big transitions, life. They want to become more fully aware of and confident in themselves, and long to find freedom from the patterns that hold them back in life. My attachment training and relational approach tends to draw folks who are looking for support around relationships with partners, family, friends, and themselves. Many of them identify as queer, non-monogamous, and/or neurodivergent. They usually share that our work together has helped them to feel more at home in their own skin and more confident in their own strength, beauty, and wisdom.
