I have been in private practice for 20 years with my specialty focusing on individuals resolving historic traumas and women balancing all of the complications of womanhood in a fast paced, demanding world. My style is informed from my diverse experience. I have worked in adolescent residential treatment, FBI consulting, an expert witness and a graduate school professorship; all the while working with my private practice clients. In the last several years, I have been sought out as a corporate consultant and speaker to discuss how our negative experiences and traumas shape our behaviors as high intensity professionals.
The untapped magnificence I see in my clients never ceases to inspire and amaze me. Anyone who is willing to do hard work is already a gift to this World! I've grown bored of many things in my life but this work....never!
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.
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.
Y'all! You have made your way over to my profile, welcome.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Asheville
Finding OCD therapists in Asheville starts with looking for training that matches the care you need. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use when supporting people with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for bios that mention ERP, OCD intrusive thoughts, obsessive thoughts, compulsions, avoidance, or the OCD cycle. Some therapists may also list approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy, which can support OCD care when used by a therapist with relevant experience.
Asheville has a smaller mental health care market than many larger North Carolina cities, so virtual appointments can expand your options beyond nearby offices. This may help if you want a therapist with specific ERP training, a certain appointment time, or experience with related concerns like anxiety, compulsive disorder symptoms in adults, or obsessive behavior. When reading therapist profiles, look for the difference between a general mention of OCD and specific details about ERP training, session structure, and what the therapist focuses on in care.
Therapy in Asheville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your estimated out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you compare OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, review their bios, check virtual or in-person availability, and see estimated costs after entering your insurance details, so you can find a therapist who matches your needs and accepts your plan.
