I hold a Masters Degree in Social Work from the University of Tennessee and hold my clinical licensure in the state of North Carolina. I have spent much of my career serving those at end of life and also have experience assisting caregivers, those in transitional phases of life, and those who are bereaved. As a mother, I am invested in the wellness of all mothers and women and feel deep appreciation for the way mothers show up for countless others before themselves. I look forward to learning how I can walk alongside you in this journey.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Charlotte, NC

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.
