Therapy Session in North Carolina

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I hold a Master’s Degree in Social Work from Albany State University and I am licensed in the states of Florida, North Carolina, and Washington State. I earned the Tele Mental Health Training Certificate (THTC) through the completion of the comprehensive THTC program through the Telehealth Certification Institute. I am a wife, mother and grandmother. I currently resides in Florida, where I enjoys reading, yoga, listening to music, and spending time with her family and friends. My passion is working to bring peace of mind, contentment, and positive self-empowerment to the lives of others. My goal is to provide a safe, therapeutic environment, where one can share their innermost struggles and challenges without feeling judged or criticized. Therapy is an avenue to address the challenges in life that sometimes seem unmanageable. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship, based on genuine acceptance and unconditional positive regard, can be the pathway for change to occur. I value the importance of empathy, respect, and self-determination. I hope to empower the individuals I work with the understanding, tools and strategies to make significant, enduring personal changes.

Affirming support is available here and now for individuals who find themselves feeling lonely and isolated as a result of being neuro-divergent or LGBTQ+, or have any other way of being that others find difficult to accept. If you are having trouble fitting in or conforming to expectations, but still crave a sense of belonging, this is where we can sort it out. Here are some common goals I see in my practice. Address trauma and feel safe again. Navigate relationships with teachers, friends and family. Learn coping strategies to manage overwhelming expectations. Understand how to speak up for yourself with out getting into trouble. And most importantly, develop self acceptance! Let me support you as you pave your way into becoming your best self! Lets figure out what is getting in the way of your goals and come up with common sense solutions. I look forward to seeing you in this safe therapy space so we can bring you a sense of comfort as you move towards feeling hopeful about the future.

I am an interactive and empathetic Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who graduated from the University of the Connecticut with an interest in supporting children, adolescents, and adults. I am passionate about supporting my clients as they navigate various concerns, such as anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, life transitions, loss, and difficult relationships.
