I have spent my career supporting clients through many life challenges and transitions. For the past two decades, I have been privileged to support patients and families on their journeys through chronic illness and end of life decision making. In addition I have helped many clients with depression, anxiety, grief/loss, health concerns, caregiver burden, relationship issues, and communication challenges.
Grief, loss, anxiety, and depression can make everyday life feel harder to navigate. I support clients working through bereavement, end-of-life concerns, anxiety, and depression in online therapy. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina, with 17 years of experience. I want you to feel heard, respected, and supported as you make sense of what you’re carrying. If you’re looking for a compassionate space to talk openly, I welcome you to reach out.
I am a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I provide care to children, adolescents, and adults, and my background in both family medicine and psychiatric mental health allows me to consider the important connection between physical and mental well-being.
I evaluate and manage a wide range of psychiatric and behavioral health concerns, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar and other mood disorders, trauma and PTSD, personality disorders, substance use and addiction, chronic stress, anger and aggression, sleep concerns, and emotional and behavioral difficulties. My medical background also informs my work with individuals whose mental health may be affected by chronic pain, medical conditions, medications, or other physical health concerns.
In addition to my medical and psychiatric training, I have specialized training and certifications in various evidence-based psychotherapy modalities. My therapeutic work may include individual therapy, trauma-focused therapy, family therapy, and parent-child therapeutic approaches. This combination of medical, psychiatric, and therapeutic training allows me to provide care that is individualized to the needs of each person and family.

I know how isolating that can be. In our work together, my priority is helping you feel truly seen, heard, and understood in a safe, confidential space where you can show up exactly as you are.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Fayetteville
Finding family therapists in Fayetteville starts with understanding what your family wants to work on together. Family therapy may support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent challenges, blended family dynamics, and communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs, such as family systems therapy, parent-child work, or experience with teens and caregivers.
In a mid-size city like Fayetteville, your search may include therapists with local offices, therapists who offer virtual appointments, or both. Virtual care can expand your options if schedules, transportation, or family availability make in-person sessions harder to coordinate. Family therapy may include the full family, specific family members, or individual sessions that support the broader work. Before booking, read therapist bios to understand their approach, session structure, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Fayetteville can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find family therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check whether your plan is accepted, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. From there, you can compare therapists, choose a time that works for your family, 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.
