I specialize in couples, parenting, anxiety, trauma, postpartum difficulties, adolescents, coping skills, conflict management and substance use.
The most challenging part of seeking out therapy is admitting it is time to make a change in your life and making that first appointment. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10 years of experience in the field, I am passionate about helping clients seek their full potential while working through life's many challenges.

My work with individuals and couples is rooted in depth psychology, existential, and experiential approaches, while also employing principles of neurobiology and Buddhism.
I believe that the deepest healing happens when therapy is rooted in connection, empathy, and compassion, so my first goal is to create an environment in which you feel understood and supported. Likewise, I believe we are truly whole when our most important relationships are thriving – including our relationship with ourselves. Strengthening these relationships is a primary focus of my therapeutic approach, along with the attainment of embodiment, mindfulness, and freedom. I work from a psychodynamic and experiential perspective to guide you towards an experience of authenticity and alignment with yourself, others, and the world.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia. I received my M.A. in School Counseling in 2007 and my Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision in August 2023. I use evidence-based practices and current research to provide the best possible treatments for my clients.

In coming to therapy, I believe that client’s are taking a brave step in prioritizing their mental health and wellness and we will partner to work towards healing.
Thank you for considering working with me as your counselor. I work individually and in groups with adolescents, adults, couples and families. I approach counseling from a person-centered theoretical background, meaning I believe that each person has within themselves the tools to grow, change, heal and improve. It is my goal to help individuals access those personal resources and grow in their personal self-efficacy. Self-awareness and self-efficacy, while goals in the counseling relationship, are difficult to achieve and will take time, energy, and client engagement. Clients will feel that they are able to face life's challenges.

They are offered a healing relationship rooted in sincerity, authenticity, acceptance, non-judgment, empathy, and a dose of humor.
Stressors come in many forms: family issues, relationship struggles, grief and loss, addiction, health problems, just to name a few. Often, these create conflicts – internal and external – and confusion about who we are, what we stand for, and what our life priorities are. My approach is designed to help clients disentangle these conflicts and to make sense of the confusion. During this process, clients learn about self-validation, finding a stable sense of identity and self, effective communication in relationships with others and oneself, creating healthy boundaries, and reducing stress.
