Biography

I’m a licensed mental health professional in North Carolina with over 10 years of experience helping children, adolescents, and adults move through life’s challenges with more clarity and confidence. My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and rooted in real-life understanding—not just clinical theory. I support clients facing stress, anxiety, emotional regulation struggles, self-esteem concerns, school or career challenges, and major life transitions. I provide a safe, supportive space for exploring difficult emotions and building the skills needed to navigate everyday life. When working with children and teens, I focus on helping them understand their feelings, build healthy coping skills, and communicate more effectively. I also work closely with caregivers and families, offering guidance, education, and support so they can better understand their child’s needs, strengthen communication at home, and feel more confident navigating challenges together. With adults, we explore patterns, build insight, and create practical strategies for healing and personal growth. Your experiences matter, and I’m here to support you with respect and care. You won’t get a one-size-fits-all approach from me. I blend practical tools with deep listening, trauma-informed care, and a strong belief in your ability to grow and heal. I work at your pace, and I honor the goals you bring to this space. Taking that first step toward change can feel heavy—but you don’t have to carry it alone. I’m here to walk beside you.
