I am a LCSW and certified parent coordinator. I have been working in mental health since 2011.
I like to work with many different populations, but I have a lot of experiences with coercive control dynamics, teenagers, ADHD, Mood and Anxiety disorders and family divorce and blended family dynamics.
Counseling is a place of acceptance where you can learn to see your true value. You hold the keys to your happiness. You just need support to unlock that door. Doing it alone will keep you stuck. You can learn to trust again. I received specialized training in Marriage and Family Therapy. I am also a Registered Play Therapist and enhance parent-child communication. I have an office where I see individuals and families. I also have two large rooms where I teach parents how to use Play Therapy Skills.

I believe there is power in learning to balance our lives emotionally and spiritually. I have 20-plus years as a counselor and have been able to help clients find emotional and general life balance. I draw from primary treatment modalities of Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectical Behavioral, Solution Focused, Psychodynamic and Existential Theories. Ideally, at the conclusion of counseling, a client will be able to actively deal with their internal states in a way that allows them to feel more at peace with increased self-esteem, and well-being.
I am a compassionate person, who currently serves as a Travel Social Worker, where I provide essential individual and group therapy to clients in need by focusing on clinical assessments and crisis interventions. I ensure that clients experiencing self-injurious behaviors receive ongoing support. My commitment to improving mental health is further highlighted by my role as Clinical Director at Pinnacle Point Supportive Services, where I was instrumental for 14 years. In this position, I overseen a team of therapists, facilitate therapy sessions for both children and adults, and engage in court-related matters. With a strong foundation in therapy and clinical supervision, I have developed skills in treatment planning, documentation, and quality assurance.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Charlotte, NC
Searching for family therapists in Charlotte starts with finding someone trained to support the relationships and patterns within a family, not just one person. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, sibling conflict, mother-daughter concerns, and communication breakdowns across generations. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family systems, attachment-based family therapy, play therapy, or other approaches that match what your family wants to work on.
Charlotte has many counselors across neighborhoods like Uptown, South End, Dilworth, NoDa, and Ballantyne, which can make it harder to narrow your options. Decide whether in-person sessions near home, school, or work make sense, or whether virtual appointments offer a better fit for multiple schedules. Family therapy sessions may include the full family, smaller groups, or individual members at different times, so it helps to review therapist bios for session structure, availability, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Therapy in Charlotte can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find family therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans. You can browse profiles, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
