I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience supporting adolescents, adults, and families in school, community mental health, psychiatric, crisis, and hospital settings. I earned my social work education through advanced graduate training and am currently pursuing a Doctor of Social Work degree with a concentration in administrative leadership. I am licensed to practice social work in New York, North Carolina, and Georgia.

Throughout my career, I have worked with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, family conflict, behavioral concerns, academic difficulties, relationship challenges, workplace stress, and major life transitions. I also have extensive experience helping adolescents and young adults improve emotional regulation, confidence, motivation, school engagement, and decision-making.

I understand that personal experiences, family relationships, culture, identity, community, and life circumstances all influence mental health. I strive to create an inclusive and respectful environment where clients from diverse backgrounds feel heard, understood, and supported. My greatest strengths are my ability to build genuine relationships, listen without judgment, identify practical solutions, and help clients recognize strengths they may not yet see in themselves.

I enjoy working with people who are interested in returning to the truth of who they are. I value people. Intuition is often within my work with people. I am honored to walk with people in their orientation to healing and health in the ways important to them. Harmony in mind, body, and spirit.

A holistic trauma informed approach with a culturally grounded orientation to care is my offering. I love to incorporate breath work and somatic work in with talk therapy all while centering values.

I respect the courage of getting to this point. It’s reasonable that we all would benefit from support so I am happy to walk you home to you, the truth of you that deserves liberation, healing and health because your life has value and I’m so glad you’re here. You deserve it all.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Huntersville, NC


I am offering immediate appointment slots and flexible rates during this difficult time. Are you struggling with anxiety and depression due to COVID-19? Do you feel uncertain about how to move forward during this difficult time? You may feel trapped or hopeless, but I can help you with proven coping skills and by working with you to create a new perspective. My life experience provides a solid foundation upon which I have built my techniques and interventions. In addition to my work with adults, I have experience with teens and young adults, and enjoy connecting with them and helping them navigate life and family challenges.

I spent 25 years in corporate America before earning my master's degree in professional counseling. This experience has given me insight into the stresses in the workplace. Having been a long time sufferer of anxiety, I can empathize with the weight of this emotion while also sharing techniques that have helped me live a better, more enjoyable life.

We are living in uncertain times and COVID fatigue has made daily life even more difficult to manage. It can feel overwhelming, but I will work with you to re-train your brain so that your automatic thought patterns are encouraging instead of fearful.

Counseling is a place of acceptance where you can learn to see your true value. You hold the keys to your happiness. You just need support to unlock that door. Doing it alone will keep you stuck. You can learn to trust again. I received specialized training in Marriage and Family Therapy. I am also a Registered Play Therapist and enhance parent-child communication. I have an office where I see individuals and families. I also have two large rooms where I teach parents how to use Play Therapy Skills.
