About

I am licensed in North Carolina with 6 years of professional work experience as well as over 9 years as a K-12 school counselor. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & compassion fatigue.

My counseling approaches are typically brief solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques through individual and group counseling. I also utilize research of positive behavioral intervention to guide my work with children as well as aspects of play therapy. I have training within trauma focused interventions. I have led and co-led groups using mindfulness and grief therapy for adults and children. My counseling experience includes working with transient populations, immigrant populations, and the LGBTQA+ community. Throughout my background, I have worked and provided services to clients who have engaged in self-harm and suicidal ideation. I provide psychoeducation to support the mental health and growth of clients.

I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

For many common concerns – such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes – online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. Research and clinical experience indicate that remote care can address these issues effectively for a wide range of people.

One major benefit is the flexibility it offers. Clients can connect with therapists in the format that suits them best, whether by video call, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. That range of options makes it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to access support from a preferred setting.

Each therapist providing online care is a licensed professional, and clients are free to change therapists if they want a different fit. Online therapy can be a practical and accessible way to pursue mental health goals while maintaining a treatment style and communication method that work for the individual.
