Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Carrboro, NC


I earned my Master of Social Work from UNC–Chapel Hill in 1999 and have more than 25 years of experience helping adults and families navigate emotional distress, relationship difficulties, and major life challenges. My background includes work as a psychotherapist and child welfare social worker.

I bring experience, steadiness, and genuine curiosity to my work. I am interested not only in what people are struggling with, but in how they came to experience themselves and their lives in the ways they do.

Through Headway, I provide insurance-based therapy to individual adults only. I do not see couples through insurance.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • Pittsboro, NC


Hello, want to work together on a path to Clarity in 2026? I provide ADHD Support in North Carolina through telehealth or in-person visits at our Pittsboro office in the Chatham Wellness Collective. (South of Chapel Hill)

A Streamlined Approach to ADHD Care. Navigating the ADHD assessment and treatment process can be frustrating and expensive. Many individuals face delays, expensive testing fees, and additional requirements, such as a psychological evaluation and/or a doctor’s note or EKG, just to receive care. Others are seen by telehealth only providers who can't prescribe stimulants and who tell you one has to start off on Wellbutrin or Strattera (non stimulants). That is terrible care. At our clinic, we prioritize efficiency and accessibility.

We believe in low doses of medication and finding your perfect dose to balance attention with mood. Most of our ADHD patients are on low dosing.

My approach to treatment is collaborative, forward-thinking, and tailored to your unique needs. I strive to create a warm, inviting atmosphere where you can feel comfortable discussing your challenges.

State Employees- Headway is part of a program that makes most visit have only a $10 copay.

Billing transparancy- Most new patient visits are billed a 99204 or 99205 and most follow-ups are 99214's. I do NOT bill therapy add on codes to new patient visits. Sometimes Headway will estimate your visit with a therapy code ad on and this makes it $300+. New visits are never more that $175. I sometimes bill add on therapy codes to follow ups (90833) IF its part of treatment plan. I won't surprise you. Please ask any provider you pick if they use add on codes- you deserve to know.

If you're looking for a therapist who is direct and will challenge you, I might be a good fit. I'm not a therapist to just sit, listen, and provide head nods. My approach is straight forward and transparent. I'm able to probe if needed and provide honest and direct feedback when necessary. While I'm here to listen, my priority is to help people improve their lives. I enjoy working with Trauma, Anxiety and OCD especially.

In these uncertain times, I can assure you that I operate from a feminist lens and am LGBTQIA 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ affirming/culturally aware.

I can happily provide gender affirming care and ESA (emotional support animal) letters.
