It is actually difficult to say what my "ideal client" would be- an individual who is willing to look at the hard and scary stuff- face it- grow from it- put it beside them and no longer allow it to be what they see the world through. They desire to increase their self-awareness and make changes based on their increased self-awareness- thus finding more comfort in their own skin.

I believe that meaningful change happens in the context of a genuine therapeutic relationship. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe enough to be fully yourself, whether you’re navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, trauma, or simply trying to understand yourself more deeply.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Human Services from Gardner Webb University and my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Wake Forest University. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor (LCMHC-S) in North Carolina with more than 14 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. My background includes outpatient therapy, crisis intervention, community mental health, leadership, and clinical supervision.

I have extensive experience helping people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment wounds, family conflict, relationship concerns, identity development, and major life transitions. I have a special passion for working with LGBTQ+ individuals and couples, adolescents, and couples seeking to strengthen connection, improve communication, and rebuild trust. My approach is affirming, collaborative, and grounded in authenticity.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Greensboro

Finding family therapists in Greensboro starts with understanding what your family wants support with. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, caregiving stress, and communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relationships between people, not only one person’s concerns. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, family counseling experience, and approaches that match your needs, such as family systems therapy, structural family therapy, or parent-child work.

Greensboro has a steady range of local therapy options, and virtual care can add more flexibility if office location or schedules make planning harder. Family therapy sessions may include the full family, a parent and child, partners, siblings, or individual members at different points in care. It helps to ask about session structure before booking, including who should attend, how scheduling works, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading therapist bios can also show how each therapist works with family dynamics, communication patterns, and shared goals.

Therapy in Greensboro can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway makes that process easier by helping you find family therapists, check your specific insurance coverage, see estimated costs upfront, and compare availability in one place. You can browse therapists, review bios, 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.
