About

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina. I have 29 years of experience working in the human services field, with the past 11 yrs providing clinical counseling. My career path has been in a variety of settings that has exposed me to diverse individuals and experiences. This is one of my greatest assets as a clinician. It has provided experiences working with those affected by depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, self-esteem, and other challenges.

I recognize it takes a lot of courage to make that first step to make changes in your life. Let me commend you on your insight and self-awareness. The unknown can be scary and change can definitely be uncomfortable. I am committed to being here to support you in this process and provide a welcoming, positive experience.

My approach to therapy involves helping you to identify strengths within yourself while developing skills and strategies to make better choices and improve your quality of life. I have an eclectic approach in that I use several counseling modalities some of which include cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy among others. I recognize you as an individual and we will work together to determine what's better for you.

I look forward to us working together and it is my hope you will arrive at a place that brings you happiness in all areas of your life!
