I have spent over 20 years working with adults, children, couples, and families.
Everyone has times in their life that they need to talk to someone. Throughout my career, I have worked with a broad range of people- children, individuals, and couples. I understand what it is like to be in search of answers. I recognize that anxiety and stress impact families as well as individuals. My life experiences have taught me to look at each client as an individual with their own needs and strengths. I believe that therapy can help us find specific solutions to our problems- whether those struggles are internal, external, personal, or relationally oriented.

I have had the opportunity to work as a respite and CAPP provider in Mecklenburg County, an outpatient therapist for a local agency, school based counselor and consultant with a local Head Start agency to provide classroom and child observations and recommendations for treatment.
People come to therapy for validation, acceptance, and answers to the questions that seem unknown. You may be feeling hurt, lost, unheard, invalidated, and you are seeking answers. I can meet you where you are in your journey and help you navigate your way to your truth through my years of education and experience.

My journey of helping people started when I was a middle school and high school teacher. While working closely with children I learned about the emotional and developmental issues that they deal with and how it can leave a lasting effect into adulthood if they do not receive help. As a counselor, I use my knowledge, skills, and empathy to help adults and children deal with what they are struggling with and help them increase their control of their lives. I look at each individual as their own person who needs individualistic care. Additionally, I incorporate the values and beliefs of my clients to create the most helpful counseling

There's only one you! It’s amazing how alike we can be as human beings and yet so different. The best part is we’re all okay! Listen, we don’t have to be experts to know when something is not right. Just reach out. Some call it a leap of faith. Great, if you do ask for help-I'm ready and excited to get started on our journey. But if you aren't ready, I want you to remember that you ARE worth it!
