I am a LCSW in North Carolina with 5 1/2 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, abuse, and coping with grief and loss. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I am a huge believer that a trusting/safe relationship is therapeutic in itself. I use CBT, DBT, and talk therapy with my clients. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
