My clients often say that they feel seen and heard by me. I am able to provide effective feedback and interventions that feel accessible to them. My approach is more conversational and relaxed as I follow the lead of my client. I weave in evidence based approaches in a way that feels more casual. I feel this approach helps with trust building. I approach our work together with a collaborative mindset. You are the expert of your life story and I am here to help you reach your goals and potential by guiding you thru the blockages and issues that you feel are holding you back.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Wilmington, NC

As a dually licensed professional counselor and clinical addiction specialist, I have been in practice for over twenty five years. My strengths include providing warmth, compassion and connection. I have worked with a wide range of adolescent and adult challenges including anxiety, depression, trauma, psychosis and substance abuse. I strive to meet individuals where they are and work with them to achieve their goals whatever they may be. I provide a comfortable, non-judgmental space for individuals to open up and be themselves offering partnership in examining challenges and seeking solutions. I join with others to empower them to be their best selves. Change is often difficult. To achieve meaningful and life changing results, it can mean moving beyond usual routines and comfort zones. If you are hurting or not satisfied with aspects of your life, I would love the opportunity to join with you so together we can be the catalyst for change and new possibilities.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Greensboro, NC

I serve a diverse range of clients with mental health concerns, such as depression, anxiety, and relational issues. I also actively practice LGBTQIA+ affirmative therapy and am currently receiving training to become a WPATH Certified Gender Specialist to better serve the transgender, non-binary, and gender queer communities. I tend to meet my clients where they are based on their past personal, cultural, and societal experiences. The client and I work on cultivating mutual empathy and respect through the counselor-client relationship, developing resiliency, and acknowledging and validating cultural and societal challenges. I am here to help anyone who is struggling with current challenges in their lives, no matter how big or small they may seem. Although our past tends to dictate where we currently are in the present, we can work together in order to change the outcome of the future.
