Since 2015, have gained a wide breadth of experience ranging from wilderness therapy to residential treatment centers, working with clients aged 13-72.

Your Journey to Healing Starts Here! Life doesn't have to feel overwhelming. If you're struggling with difficult thoughts, intense emotions, or patterns that keep you stuck, you're not alone—and there is hope for change. I specialize in helping individuals break free from the patterns that trauma creates in our lives. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, or relationship challenges that feel impossible to navigate, we'll work together to identify what's keeping you stuck and create a clear path forward. Life stressors can be confusing and overwhelming, affecting how we see ourselves, our relationships and our future.

Hi! I am a licensed clinical social worker with 10 years of clinical experience. Though I consider myself a generalist having worked in multiple settings with a range of issues, my niches include anxiety, depression, ADHD, and eating and body image concerns. These are issues I have personal experience with, and the tools I offer are ones I practice myself.

I am passionate about helping people reduce burnout, and develop a flexible relationship with food and the body, based on hunger, your schedule, accessibility to food and your feelings. The body changes based on age, injury, activity level and other things, and I understand that it can be hard to be kind to ourselves, given the culture we live in.

I aim to be non-judgmental, upfront, and supportive.

Life is hard. Sometimes you need a helping hand to overcome challenges and to live your best life. I believe you have the ability and power to heal yourself and to improve your situation. My goal is to help you have a life filled with joy and meaning, whatever that looks like to you. I work with children, youth and adults who are struggling with their identity, their relationships, their beliefs, their emotions, their past, their work life, their academics, their athletic performance, and their life goals. People I have helped include those with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, neurodiversity, and gender expression issues.

I’m a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) and nationally certified counselor (NCC) with a master’s degree from Lenoir-Rhyne University. I provide trauma-informed therapy for children, teens, and adults experiencing trauma, PTSD, anxiety, ADHD, and difficult life experiences. I use EMDR, CBT, ACT, and DBT-informed approaches to help clients process painful experiences, develop practical coping skills, and feel more confident and in control. My goal is to provide a judgment-free space where you feel heard, respected, and supported.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with several years of experience and I specialize in treating young adults, adults, and seniors. My clinical background has afforded me the fulfilling opportunity to support the mental wellness of individuals from all backgrounds. I believe in evidence-based treatment- I specialize in interventional modalities, and I now conduct Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for depression in our Charlotte office.

My passion is working with people and helping them to be the best they can be. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina and a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina with 24+ years of therapeutic experience. My experience started in Mental Health Clinics, but I have been working in private practice for over 15 years. I help people with a variety of concerns to include stress, anxiety, coping with grief and loss, parenting issues, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

I believe therapy works best when clients feel safe, heard, and genuinely supported. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative environment where clients can show up as their authentic selves. My approach is compassionate, direct when needed, and focused on helping clients build practical tools for everyday life while also exploring deeper emotional patterns and experiences.

I enjoy working with individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship concerns, self-esteem challenges, stress, identity exploration, and emotional overwhelm. I am passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC clients and creating an affirming therapeutic space where clients feel respected and understood.

I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable, and my goal is to meet clients where they are while helping them move toward healing, clarity, and meaningful growth.
