NOW ACCEPTING AND SERVING CHILDREN!! Have you ever felt lost or lonely while in a familiar or crowed place? Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations. I first developed a passion for therapy when I hit a roadblock in my own life and was struggling to move past it. I specialize in helping people identify and achieve their personal goals by coping with the issues that are causing them distress, anxiety, and discomfort.


Unfortunately, life doesn't always allow us to be the best version of ourselves. With my help, you'll learn about acceptance and how to exert your power of choice over whatever life may throw at you. I take great pride in the progress and success of my clients.


My job is to give you the tools and techniques to achieve a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle. After several sessions, you will become well-versed at handling issues whenever and wherever they arise. Let's work together to put your life back in focus. I look forward to working with you.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 14 mi away • Greensboro, NC


I call my counseling practice "Wit's End" because that's often the point at which we turn to help. It pauses the conversation for a moment. It is the moment we "hiccup" and turn to curiosity. That's why I'm here. With cleverness, kindness, and hope, we will sit together and navigate what brought you here and how you can move through.

I specifically like to work with couples, adults, parents, every type of relationship, those in chronic pain, and those who are departing some sort of community.

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 Kernersville

Finding the right therapist in Kernersville starts with identifying the type of care you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or life transitions, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern can make a meaningful difference. Kernersville is part of the broader Triad region, so providers in nearby Winston-Salem, Greensboro, and High Point may also be a good fit — especially if they offer virtual sessions.

Therapy in the Kernersville area can vary in cost depending on your provider and session type. One of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs is to see a provider who is in-network with your insurance plan. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.

When evaluating a therapist, consider reading their bio to understand their approach, areas of focus, and what a session with them might look like. Many providers on Headway offer a free phone consultation, so you can see if it's a good match before committing to a first session.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
