I've been a psychologist for over 10 years. I have practiced in different places across, the U.S., including Seattle, Hawai'i, and now Wilmington the past few years. I truly enjoy what I do. I believe working on your mental health makes life more satisfying, myself included. I work with adults from a variety of backgrounds, Common reasons people see me include: anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, men's issues, and substance use.
I approach sessions as an experienced professional and a real person. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as your full, uncensored self—say the hard things, the messy things, even the things you’re not sure how to put into words—and still feel accepted, heard, and supported. Many people reach out to me feeling overwhelmed by everyday stress, big world events, or the sense that things keep changing without much warning. It can feel like there’s no escape from stress, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Therapy can be a place to slow down, breathe, share humor, & talk things through with someone who’s really listening. My career spans 20+ years in mental health, addiction treatment, and disability services.
I help people heal from trauma, with a special focus on sexual trauma, and I’ve been honored to support a wide range of individuals — including women, men, military veterans, and LGBTQIA clients — as they work through their experiences and take meaningful steps toward healing. I also enjoy helping people work through challenging life transitions (e.g., parenthood, divorce, etc.) and identity-specific concerns (e.g., men's issues, women's issues, gender identity exploration). In addition to individual therapy, I also provide relationship therapy for monogamous, non-monogamous, and open relationships as well as psychological assessment (e.g., ADHD, dementia, learning disorder, mental health) for adults.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience in the social work field. I have a Bachelor of Science in Human Services at the University of Delaware and a Master's in Social Work from Rutgers University. Treatment areas I specialize in include working with Latinx individuals, parenting skills for all ages, empowering women struggling with anxiety and/or an unhealthy relationship, adolescents, diabetes & ADHD diagnosis and management processing.
I am a licensed clinical social worker who graduated from Rutgers University with a Masters in Social Work. Throughout my 12+ year career I have worked with a variety of people and have really found my skill set to be working with people dealing with OCD, depression, and anxiety. I like to incorporate elements of CBT, DBT, and mindfulness into my work.
My background is in Biology, Health Promotion and Mental Health. As I approached my 30th birthday, I pledged to be free in ALL areas of my life which then spawned the journey of exploring the connection between spirituality and sexuality and I haven't looked back since!
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in working with individuals seeking healing, support, and personal growth. My therapeutic style is empathetic, empowering, and solution-focused. I provide a safe and collaborative space where you can feel heard, respected, and supported as you work through life’s challenges. I help individuals navigate life’s challenges with empathy, respect, and practical strategies for growth. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, trauma, or stress, I offer a safe, supportive space to build resilience and find clarity.
Taking the first step to find a therapist or meet a new therapist is tricky! I am so glad that you are here! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and have been working in Community Mental Health for the past 3 years. My main focus that I work with in my practice over the past few years have mainly been PTSD and Postpartum.
If you're looking for a therapist who is direct and will challenge you, I might be a good fit. I'm not a therapist to just sit, listen, and provide head nods. My approach is straight forward and transparent. I'm able to probe if needed and provide honest and direct feedback when necessary. While I'm here to listen, my priority is to help people improve their lives. I enjoy working with Trauma, Anxiety and OCD especially.
In these uncertain times, I can assure you that I operate from a feminist lens and am LGBTQIA 🏳️🌈 🏳️⚧️ affirming/culturally aware.
I can happily provide gender affirming care and ESA (emotional support animal) letters.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Raleigh
Searching for therapists in Raleigh starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Raleigh therapists may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, stress, or trauma. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match what you want to address. Provider bios can show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what you can expect in sessions.
Raleigh has a range of therapy options across neighborhoods and nearby communities, with both in-person and virtual appointments available. If you prefer in person therapy in Raleigh, NC, location, commute time, and office hours may shape your search. If your schedule changes often, virtual therapy may make it easier to find appointment times that fit. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers scheduling flexibility, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand communication style, session structure, and whether the therapist’s approach feels aligned with what you’re looking for.
Therapy in Raleigh can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find Raleigh therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. From individual therapy to couples therapy Raleigh residents may be searching for, Headway makes it easier to compare therapists, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
