For 18 years, I have worked alongside children and adults navigating some of life's hardest

moments: anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, and more. I believe that when you

invest in your mental health, you gain more control over your own life, and that is something

worth working toward together. I am dually licensed in both North Carolina and South

Carolina, which means I bring a depth of clinical experience across many settings. Using a

blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Therapy, I meet you where

you are and help you build toward where you want to be.

Therapist

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who provides compassionate, trauma-informed therapy for adolescents and adults who are feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns they want to change.

Maybe you find yourself overthinking everything, struggling to trust others, feeling like you’re never good enough, or having difficulty setting boundaries. Maybe you’ve wondered why certain experiences from your past still affect you—or why you shut down, feel overwhelmed, or keep repeating patterns you want to change.

Sometimes, the experiences we’ve learned to minimize can still shape how we feel, think, and relate to others.

Therapy can be a space to understand the why behind your reactions, process what has happened, and develop a deeper sense of safety, self-trust, and connection.
