About me

I am licensed in North Carolina with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief, loss, and depression. I work with adults, children, and adolescents, but most of my professional experience has been with adult women who have at some point experienced trauma and/or inequity in their lives. Whether or not a client has these experiences, I find the challenges that bring people to therapy universally call for exploring communication style, engaging in objective self-review, accepting ourselves, building confidence, and learning techniques to improve the way we feel and connect first with ourselves and ultimately others in this world. My priority is to create a safe place for all clients, regardless of race, sexual orientation, religion, culture, socioeconomic status, gender identification, or any other factor that themselves or others associate with them. Further, I strongly believe that privilege, bias, systematic racism, inequality, and inequity are perpetuated by the structures in which we all live and function, and thus impact our experiences of trauma, grief, discontent, healing processes, and available coping mechanisms. Thus, I acknowledge my status of privilege and embrace cultural humility. During sessions, I will broach topics of bias, and openly explore how historical and racial trauma shape and effect the therapeutic journey, the presenting problem, and the recover process. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
