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.
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.
I am a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), which allows me to care for both mental and physical health in a more integrated way. I work with individuals across the lifespan and support a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, psychotic symptoms, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, and stress-related challenges.
My background in both psychiatry and primary care helps me understand how closely mental health is connected to physical health, lifestyle, and overall well-being. I strive to provide care that is thoughtful, personalized, and rooted in evidence-based practice.
My desire is to create a safe, non-judgmental environment to aid in facilitating change and growth. Whether you're going through a life transition or relational strain, anxiety or depression, my goal is to empower you to find the tools within yourself to initiate a positive transformation within your life and relationships. Let's focus on navigating and guiding you through the change process to cultivate a deeper self awareness to discover a more peaceful state of mind.
I bring warmth, authenticity, and a calm, steady presence to the therapeutic relationship. While my focus is on children and teens, I also support adults who are navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, and major life changes.
I’m intentional about creating a space where clients of all ages feel understood and supported. While working with children and teens, I work to build trust through patience, playfulness, and developmentally appropriate communication. For adults, I offer a grounded, collaborative environment where they can explore challenges openly and at their own pace. Parents often share that they appreciate my ability to connect with their child while also offering clear communication, guidance, and compassion throughout the process.
Get what you need! That is my philosophy! I am pleased to hold space for individuals that is warm, relaxing, neutral, and intentional. My goal is for clients to explore who they are, process as they need to, and become empowered to change as they see fit. With over 20 years of Social Work practice and experience, a few of my specific treatment areas include individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease, Survivors of Intimate Partner Abuse, Depression, Anxiety, Grief, and Stress.

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.
