Do you feel like you're facing something that you just can't figure out how to get past? Like you want to make a change in your life, but you just can't figure out how to get there? I am here to help; to walk with you on the journey; to support the growth that you know you can achieve if you can just get started. We all hold the capacity to thrive in our lives. My goal in working with you is to meet you where you are, help you identify the root of your challenge, build resilience, and help you unearth your inner strength and wisdom, so you can bloom to your fullest.

With over 20 years of experience, I provide a personalized, non-judgmental approach with a focus on empowering you. Treatment is targeted to help you identify and reach your goals. I work with folks in person in my Asheville office, or by video sessions if you reside in another area of NC.

My extensive experience working with women, and folks in the LGBTQ+ community, aids me in working with folks when they feel overwhelmed, are experiencing dissatisfaction in relationships, life transitions, trauma, and anxiety. You have extraordinary capacity for growth, strength, and love. I would be honored to support you on your journey.
