I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina. I have worked within the mental health field since 1998. I received a Master of Science in Counseling and Psychology from the University of West Alabama in 2008 and I have been working as a counselor for 9 years. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, autism, relationship issues, bipolar disorder, suicidal ideation, panic disorder, parent-child relationship issues.
I view counseling as a forum for acceptance and understanding that serves to facilitate and foster change. To some, counseling is a means to a positive end, which may be as simple as using the counselor as a sounding board or a way around a roadblock in life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the basic theoretical foundation of my work. CBT emphasizes the idea that a person will experience difficulties in life, based on perceptions of the events that have occurred. I tailor my sessions based on the needs of my client(s), utilizing a collaborative approach from different models.
I thank you for considering me to support you with reaching your goals. I look forward to working with you.

Kenya not only actively listens to me respectfully and thoughtfully, she also challenges me in ways that are healthy. I get so much from our sessions and have learned so much about myself and emotional regulation. I would recommend Kenya to anyone looking to sort through troubling thought patterns/behaviors. She is a truly gifted counselor.
