Maybe you've been carrying something for a while, and it's starting to feel heavier than you can manage on your own. It might be your drinking, your relationship with food, or something from your past that still shows up in your everyday life. I work with adults facing substance use, disordered eating, and trauma, along with the anxiety, depression, and grief that often come with them. If part of you wants things to change and part of you isn't sure, that's a very common place to start. You don't need to have it all sorted out before reaching out. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 4 years of experience and a degree from Liberty University.

Therapist

My clinical background spans some of the most intense and intimate settings in social work — hospice care, hospitals, prisons, schools, and special education. I have extensive experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges, transitions, and unexpected moments. Throughout my career, I have learned that every person brings their own story, strengths, experiences, and ways of coping—and I believe those strengths are an important part of the therapeutic process. My approach is warm, compassionate, and strengths-based. I work collaboratively with clients to better understand what they are experiencing, identify what may be getting in the way, and find practical ways to move forward. I use creativity and problem-solving in my work because I don't believe therapy should be a one-size-fits-all experience. Grief is often the silent part of change in life's hardest chapters. Loss of a loved one is called bereavement, but loss of any kind is grief. Sometimes grief is woven into need for change. My approach is warm, compassionate, and strengths-based. I also work with adolescents, adults, and seniors on anxiety, depression, maternal mental health, and women's issues. I'm licensed in both New Jersey, North Carolina, and South Carolina and bring the perspective of someone who has been present with people in their most vulnerable moments — with compassion, not clinical distance.

As a licensed mental health professional, I believe that prioritizing our mental and emotional well-being is the foundation of a sustainable and healthy life. Over the past ten years in this field, one thing I’ve consistently learned is that simply having someone to talk to can be one of the most challenging parts of the therapeutic process.

Therapy is meant to be a place where anyone can feel safe and understood. With all of the major stressors that kids are facing in this current age, it can be a game-changer for a child to have a place where they feel accepted and supported. I became a therapist not to pathologize or diagnose children, but to become another safe adult in their support system who guides them to their goals and cheers them on from the sidelines. I specialize in helping children and teens ages 3–17 navigate through emotional challenges, stressful life transitions, and difficult developmental experiences through play therapy and a warm, supportive environment.
