I am Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Masters degree in Clinical Counseling and a Bachelors in Psychology and Criminal Justice. I am a Virginia CIT instructor and a clinician vetted through VALEAP. My experience includes post critical incident debriefs and peer support.
My clinical background includes working in emergency behavioral health settings, where I help individuals stabilize during some of life’s most challenging moments.
I have a particular passion for working with individuals impacted by critical incidents, acute stress, adjustment to change, and those navigating anxiety, depression, and overwhelming life stress.
I’m really glad you’re here. As a Licensed Behavioral Health Therapist, I believe caring for your mental health is one of the most important investments you can make in yourself. Reaching out for help can feel overwhelming, but it’s also a powerful first step toward healing and change.
With over 10 years of experience, I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and eating disorders. I strive to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and understood—without judgment.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who also holds Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy certification (TF-CBT) as well Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor certification (AADC).

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 an Addiction Therapist in West Virginia
Searching for therapists in West Virginia starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Across urban and rural parts of the state, available therapists and areas of focus can vary. You may want support for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist who lists experience with your concerns, preferred therapy approaches, or populations they support. A detailed bio can help you understand how they work before you book.
Location and format matter, too. If you are looking for a therapist in Charleston, Morgantown, Huntington, or a nearby community, in-person availability may depend on where you live and how far you want to travel. Virtual appointments can expand your options across West Virginia, especially when local openings are limited. As you narrow your search, review whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Bios can also show communication style, session structure, and what to expect in a first visit.
The cost of therapy in West Virginia can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and book directly when you find a fit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your plan details to check coverage for your location. From there, you can browse therapists, review bios, and choose someone who matches your needs, schedule, and insurance plan.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
