Greetings, I am a former educator and a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in the state of North Carolina with over ten years of professional experience. I hold two counseling degrees, a Master's in Community Counseling and a Ph.D. in Advanced Studie in Human Behavior (Counseling). I have worked with clients in the prison setting, juvenile justice department, private practice, military facilities, and community-based agencies. I treated my former clients for concerns to include depression, anxiety, ODD, ADHD, and substance abuse. I have also worked with clients who experienced physical and emotional trauma. As a therapist, I believe in making my clients feel as comfortable as possible by building rapport through trust and mutual respect. I work very diligently to help make the therapeutic environment warm and inviting. My most used counseling approach is person-centered, as well as the implementation of cognitive-behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy very often in my therapy sessions. The treatment plan will be adjusted based on your specific needs and if other approaches are required, we will plan accordingly. Your journey is your own, but it is always good to have someone there to help guide you through the rough patches. If you are willing to work on becoming an even better you, I am here to help. I look forward to helping you along your journey to success!

Life can often be difficult, causing individuals to feel lonely and overwhelmed. Many of my clients begin therapy because they are struggling with an emotional void and they are wondering how to live their best life. My therapeutic style is warm, non-judgmental, strength based and solution focused. The strong therapeutic relationship I work to cultivate is often the catalyst for my clients to become more self aware, insightful and in control of their life. I have over 22 years experience working with adults, children and families. It has been an honor to work side by side with and guide clients through challenges that seem impossible to overcome, including depression, anxiety, grief, sexual, physical and emotional abuse, substance use and unhealthy family dynamics. It would be a privilege to help you to discover your inherent strengths so you can begin to feel better about yourself and your life.

I am licensed in North Carolina with 8 years of professional work experience. I am experienced in helping clients with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, parenting challenges, motivation, and self-esteem. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Each of us experiences stress, loneliness, anger, and sadness, etc.., also everyone’s experiences and reactions are different and valid. Left unaddressed, these feelings can lead to lasting impacts on our day-to-day functioning, relationships, and our ability to be present and fully take in the world around us. Together, in our sessions and with some work in between, I want to show you how to use your own strength and skills to create change, foster new understanding, and find solutions to the thoughts and worries that run through your mind. We will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and "present" life takes courage—think of it like starting a new workout routine: it might feel awkward at first, but the results are worth it! I’m here with you as we tackle this journey together. You bring the effort, I’ll bring the support, every step of the way.
