I became a therapist because I believe in building healthier people, families, and communities, and I carry that mission into every session. I bring warmth, cultural humility, and deep clinical experience to every session. I have worked with military families, children, adolescents, and adults across a wide range of settings. Whether you are navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, or a major life change, I offer a space where you are genuinely seen and heard. I would love to be part of your journey.
Life is full of transitions, and sometimes those changes can feel overwhelming. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, grief, divorce, a major life change, or rebuilding after incarceration, my goal is to provide compassionate, judgment-free care that meets you where you are. I believe treatment should focus on the whole person—not just symptoms. Together we’ll create a plan that supports your mental wellness while helping you build the life you want, with medication management, therapy, and practical resources tailored to your needs.
My desire is to create a safe, non-judgmental environment to aid in facilitating change and growth. Whether you're going through a life transition or relational strain, anxiety or depression, my goal is to empower you to find the tools within yourself to initiate a positive transformation within your life and relationships. Let's focus on navigating and guiding you through the change process to cultivate a deeper self awareness to discover a more peaceful state of mind.
Are you feeling stuck? Frustrated? Having a difficult time navigating changes in your life? I am here to help!

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Charlotte
Searching for therapists in Charlotte starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Charlotte has therapists across neighborhoods like Uptown, South End, NoDa, Plaza Midwood, and nearby areas, with experience in concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and details about who they typically work with. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their style, what sessions may look like, and whether their experience fits your needs.
In a large metro area like Charlotte, having many options can make the search feel harder to sort through. It helps to narrow by practical fit first: appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, in-person or virtual session format, and location if you prefer an office near work, home, or transit. Some people prefer meeting in a physical office, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for details about communication style, session structure, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Charlotte can be expensive without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, confirm your benefits, and see an estimated cost before you book. You can filter by preferences, compare therapist profiles, and choose virtual or in-person care, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to take new patients.
