I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist in North Carolina, where I have worked since completing my education. As a therapist, I have worked in both outpatient mental health/substance use treatment clinics and inpatient settings. Over the years, I have worked with individuals who experience challenges with symptoms related to anxiety, who have been experienced challenges in relationships, and those who are wanting to increase stress management skills. In working with clients, I utilize an eclectic range of skills and tools but typically find that solution-focused skills, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and motivational interviewing tools are useful to a wide range of individuals. Whether we are addressing the thoughts that might be re-enforcing anxiety, working on a wellness action plan, or creating a relapse prevention plan for substance use, I practice from a recovery-model perspective, which offers that everyone has the ability to recover and achieve wellness. Regardless of what area we might focus our attention on or what techniques we might use, I always believe in being compassionate and empathetic, honest, and warm. As someone who will walk alongside you on your journey to wellness, I believe that therapy is a collaborative process. My goal is to provide you with the support that is specifically tailored to your strengths and needs. Moving towards wellness can feel like a daunting task, but I am here to offer my support as you begin your journey.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of North Carolina with over 30 years of experience providing compassionate clinical care to clients coping with a variety of concerns. These concerns include coping with depression, anxiety, grief, addiction, bariatric support (pre and post surgery) , anxiety related to sports performance, and career transition. In addition, I’ve successfully worked with clients who struggle with bipolar disorder, trauma, attachment related to international adoption, and issues related to military service. My counseling style is warm and interactive, based on mutual respect, acceptance, and compassion. My counseling approach is client centered, using a combination of cognitive behavioral, humanistic, and problem solving strategies specifically designed to meet your goals. Congratulations on your decision to seek help. It is truly one of the best decisions you can make for yourself and those you care about. I look forward to the honor of walking with you on your journey to positive change.

I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have been practicing for over 15 years. My experience has been mostly with adults and children who have experienced trauma and other adversities. I am trained in numerous evidence based practices. My passion is for parents who are juggling many hats. I have facilitated parenting support groups for many years and I love to hear when parents find their strength in their role as a parent. My approach is very strengths based. In my role as therapist I work with clients to tap into their inner resiliency to support their ability to cope. None of us are exempt from life stressors. It is more about what we do with those stressors and how we cope with those stressors that make all the difference. For some it may be seen as a weakness to seek out therapy support. I would challenge that and say that it is really a sign of your strength. Use this as an opportunity to grow and feel even stronger as a person.

I have been a therapist since 2014 when I graduated with my masters degree in social work from North Carolina State University in Raleigh, NC. After graduating with my bachelors in social work in 2012 and working for a year at a homeless shelter, I knew there was more that I wanted to be doing, which led me back to school to continue my education. I finished all of my clinical hours for licensure in April of 2018, which is when I became an LCSW. I have worked at three different outpatient mental health centers during my time of practice, all which served different ages, diagnoses, and stages of life. The majority of my experience comes in working with individuals learning to cope with anxiety, stress, depression, addictions, trauma, abuse, parenting issues, life transitions, relational issues and grief and loss. I may be the “therapist,” but no one knows you like you do, and that is why I make it a priority to make sure we use my expertise, as well as yours to make sure we get you where you want to be! I traditionally come from a strengths based background/approach for this reason. I have taken certified courses in Trauma Focused CBT, and in treating Anxiety. I can’t promise I won’t respectfully try to challenge you throughout this process, but you have the power to choose what feels right for you. I understand that this is a difficult spot to be in, and that the thought of needing “therapy” can sometimes seem unnecessary, but I really hope that you can look at this like a partnership where I can provide you with certain tools that will help you on your journey. There is no such thing as a stupid question, a ridiculous thought, or a reason to be embarrassed. Everyone handles stress and life transitions differently, and if it weren’t for that we wouldn’t have the uniqueness that helps us all accelerate at different things. I am honored to get to hear your story, and to be your sounding board at this time of transition.
