I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor offering telehealth individual counseling for older adolescents (age 16+) and adults throughout North Carolina. Life can be full of hardships, difficulties, and suffering. My goal as a therapist is to come alongside you and help as you process past hurts, current struggles and future concerns.

Knox Christian Counseling specializes in treating women ages 5 and up that are looking for trauma-informed Christian counseling. A traumatic experience can be anything that has been emotionally difficult to endure. Some examples may be physical abuse, sexual abuse, domestic violence, school violence, divorce, death, disruption in your living environment, homelessness, or witnessing someone else experience a trauma. These experiences can cause feelings of worthlessness, hopelessness, guilt, depression, anxiety, avoidance and nightmares. Carrying on with your day to day life becomes difficult.

I approach counseling from a holistic perspective, taking into consideration the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of each client. I believe that a safe, therapeutic environment and strong rapport are critical to growth and healing. I consider counseling as a collaborative journey, respecting that the client is the expert of their own life. As such, I work together with my clients in developing goals that meet each client's specific needs.

Reaching out to seek therapy says something positive about you! It reflects that you recognize the need to ask for help, which is always the first step and sometimes, the hardest step. It also means you are coming into therapy with an open mindset and are willing to do the work necessary to achieve your goals.

I specialize in treating issues related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem, life transitions, caregiving, stress management and women's issues.

Life can be stressful, overwhelming, and downright confusing. Sometimes we feel "stuck", and we are not sure how to find healing and hope. We can end up feeling broken and hopeless. I provide a warm and safe therapeutic environment where you can learn to identify "stuck points" and discover your values. Together, we can discover areas of your life that need healing and understanding. I believe in a collaborative approach and utilize a variety of techniques including, CBT, DBT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, and strength-based approaches to empower you to achieve your goals. I also offer biblical integration upon request.

I would like to help you be all that you are meant to be so that you may live the authentic life you were intended to live. Unavoidable circumstances may get in the way of your happiness, but with help, you can overcome any circumstance. You have that ability, already. I want to help you get there.

Life can be a struggle. Maybe you’re balancing multiple demands: parenthood, relationship, career, and you feel constantly pulled in different directions. As the demands increase, time for yourself decreases and you find yourself full of worry and defeating thoughts such as: “I can't handle this” “what will I do?”; “I’m not good enough”. Self doubt and insecurity set in and daily tasks may feel like they’re more difficult to get through. You may feel exhausted but these running thoughts keep you up at night. Or maybe you’ve felt this way for a while, and you’re beginning to wonder if you will ever feel content again.

Are you looking for a therapist that you can relate to and feel safe with? Have you tried therapy a few times but felt like you never got anywhere? Or maybe its your first time and you're not sure what you're looking for. If that's you, you are exactly where you need to be. I meet clients where they are and help them navigate difficult feelings, process trauma, and find enjoyment in life. By reaching out, you're overcoming the scary first step in working towards inner healing, greater self understanding, and finding meaning in life. You don't have to do this alone. Let's work together to help you be the best version of yourself.

My goal is to help you reach your goals, feel better, and feel more empowered. This is done with the main approach of providing a safe, non-judgmental, and validating space to explore your thoughts and emotions. Life is hard. Maybe it's hard all the time? Sometimes you can rise to the occasion, are successful, and can cope with life's difficulties. Other times, you become overwhelmed, frozen, angry, or depressed. Maybe you feel out of control of your life? Don't feel like your "normal self"? Have anxiety/depression? Whatever you are facing....you can overcome.

Therapy is more than conversation; it's about change. Fast forward to a life where you feel relaxed, focused, happy and more or less free of anxiety and depression. How will you get there? I have twenty five years of training and experience working with many different people across a wide spectrum of issues. I will give you the space to be yourself and collaborate with you to reach your goals in life.

Maybe you were already dealing with difficult circumstances before the beginning of the pandemic, and the events of last year only made things worse. Whatever circumstances you find yourself in, there is still hope.

As a sibling of a childhood cancer survivor, I have a heart to help individuals, couples, and families when suffering interrupts life’s normal flow.

Every day I have the privilege of working with the bravest folks on the planet & none of you know it when you first walk in the door. You often feel defeated, overwhelmed & ashamed that you aren't able to "get over" your sexual, physical or emotional trauma. It's also common for you to have a nagging, chronic sense that something is just not right, an unhappiness; feeling unloved or unlovable, disconnected from friends and family, having lost a sense of purpose or direction. Without knowing that these symptoms may be telling us that a past trauma--long ago
