I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina with over 15 years of experience working as a Therapist and Care Manager. I have worked with individuals with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My counseling style is warm and connected. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My experience includes working with adults, adolescents, children/families, and group work. I employ evidence-based treatments for mood disorders, anxiety, grief & loss. Specifically, my counseling approach is using cognitive-behavioral techniques and self-guided help. I will individualize our dialog and treatment plan to address your specific needs. The counseling relationship is a professional relationship based on trust, security, and mutual respect. In working together, the focus will be on you and your concerns, and will not involve my personal life or concerns. Because the counseling relationship is professional and not social, contact with you will be limited only to counseling sessions and telephone contact necessary for your treatment. These limits are designed to protect your best interests and to ensure that all energies are focused on your concerns. I believe that everyone I engage with should be able to have a better, more harmonious well-being every day and I look forward to helping you achieve that goal.

Hi there, and welcome— If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck in cycles of worry, or weighed down by sadness, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. Reaching out is a powerful first step, and I’m really glad you’re here. I specialize in helping individuals manage anxiety and depression using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical and evidence-based approach that helps you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. Together, we’ll identify patterns that may be holding you back and develop tools you can actually use in your daily life to feel more balanced, confident, and in control. My approach is supportive, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. I believe therapy should feel like a safe space where you can be honest, explore what’s going on beneath the surface, and work toward meaningful change at your own pace. Whether you’re dealing with constant worry, low motivation, stress, or just feeling “off,” we can work together to create a path forward that feels right for you. We can communicate through messaging, live chat, phone, or video sessions—whatever feels most comfortable for you. You deserve to feel better—and change is absolutely possible. If you’re ready, I’d be honored to support you on your journey.

I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor in the state of North Carolina. I having been working in this field for over 25 years. I am fortunate to have been afforded the opportunity to work in a variety of settings. These settings include substance abuse treatment, mental health crises, domestic violence, critical incidences, youth corrections, individual, couples and family counseling. I have worked with clients who have had issues with depression, anxiety, stress and psychsocial problems. While I have benefitted greatly from these experiences, I believe myself to be most effective in individual counseling. I have taken the benefit of all these experiences and combined them to be the best counselor I can be. No matter the initial presentation of my clients, their issues tend to fall into one or more of the areas of my experience. As a therapist, my theoretical approaches tend to be solution focused, reality based with an emphasis on how my client views him or herself and the world around them. I believe we all make decisions and exhibit individual behaviors based on what we perceive is happening to us and the world around us. My goal is to help my clients determine if their beliefs, as well as their actions, are helping them be the best they can be. In addition to that, I work to ensure that my clients have the emotional tools they need to appropriately and effectively manage the emotional ups and downs of life. As I see it, life is "a continuum of temporary circumstances that we all must navigate the best we can with the skills we have". My calling is to serve others, with the hope that I can contribute in some way to helping them make their lives better..
