I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Financial Social Worker who helps clients navigate anxiety, depression, relationships, and major life transitions. My goal is to create a safe, judgment-free space where healing and growth can take place. I believe that emotional and financial health are deeply connected, and I help clients build healthier relationships with both themselves and their money. My approach is compassionate, practical, and rooted in empowerment and self-awareness.
I specialize in OCD, as well as generalized anxiety and body-focused repetitive behaviors. I will help you understand that it is OCD, not you, that is creating these distressing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I primarily utilize exposure and response prevention (ERP) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to work with these diagnoses.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Asheville
Finding ADHD therapists in Asheville starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapy can help with executive function, time management, organization, focus, emotional regulation, and related concerns like anxiety or depression. Some people look for therapeutic support, such as cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD or skills-based counseling, while others may also need medication management from a psychiatrist. Adult ADHD and pediatric ADHD can call for different experience, so review each therapist’s listed specialties, training, and approach before booking.
Asheville has a smaller local therapist market than larger North Carolina cities, so virtual appointments can expand your options while still giving you access to therapists licensed in your state. As you compare ADHD counseling options, look at appointment availability, whether the therapist offers in-person or virtual sessions, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Provider bios can also help you understand how a therapist works with ADHD, including whether they support adults, children, teens, women, or people with co-occurring concerns like anxiety and depression.
Therapy in Asheville can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you find ADHD therapists in Asheville who are accepting new patients and match your preferences. You can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your plan and review available options. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated costs, compare therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
