Offering Virtual Sessions Only. Licensed in NC, TN and SC. I believe when we focus on our mental health...other areas of our lives can improve. The first and hardest step is to reach out and find someone to help guide you. In my sessions, I use a client-centered approach to provide you with tools to reduce the pressures of life and achieve your personal goals. I enjoy counseling teens and young adults who are navigating growing up and becoming independent. I also enjoy working with those who have "more life experience." I too have gone through raising children, having them leave home and then finding your new purpose.

I work with adults, couples, children, and therapists.
I excel at helping my clients achieve deep lasting change. Clients regularly tell me they have never had therapy be so successful before. You are likely angry, numb, depressed, afraid, or simply not sure what is going on with you. I am open, sensitive, and calming while I work to meet you where you are. I provide a safe and non-judgmental environment for you to be yourself and to explore more of who you are. I am eclectic in my approach. My go-to model is one that teaches you how to provide healing to yourself through its meditative qualities. This therapy model is called IFS (Internal Family Systems).

Whether a survivor of child sexual abuse, human trafficking, domestic violence, or even witnessing homicide, I have worked in all of these areas and more.
Are you angry? Angry with loved ones, angry with life, even angry with God? Do you feel disillusioned about life and distrustful of others?

After surviving a traumatic event, many people experience all of these things and more, which can disrupt every aspect of life. I hope it will encourage you to know that all of these reactions to trauma are completely normal and treatable.
