My passion lies in helping those experiencing issues with depression, anxiety, women's issues, disordered eating, life transitions and adjustments, self-worth, body image, identity development and relationship issues.
It is my priority to offer a warm and welcoming space for each and every client to feel validated, challenged and empowered throughout their counseling experience. My approach to therapy is from an integrative and holistic perspective to attend to your unique needs, as every client is different. Utilizing a person-centered and solution-focused approach, I will work with you to explore your symptoms, concerns, values, self-worth, personal strengths and areas for growth to develop a foundation of skills and an individualized plan to achieve your goals in therapy.

You find yourself feeling constantly exhausted and overwhelmed. Your time and energy have been focused on meeting everyone else’s needs, leaving little room for yourself. You may look around and feel like others have it all figured out, while you struggle to make space for your personal interests and self-care. This realization brings a mix of emotions, including guilt. But deep down, you know it’s time to stop letting outside expectations dictate your life and leave you feeling hopeless. You’re ready to live on your own terms, and together, we can make that happen!
In this group we will cover self-care, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, guilt, and shame, and creating boundaries to support your journey to wellness, empowerment, and freedom. Two group sessions will be held on Tuesdays OR Thursdays at the RenuYou-Charlotte Center to tailor to your unique schedule.

Sometimes, as you travel along the path of life, you encounter detours in the form of hurt, neglect, or loss that shift your direction and give you a false narrative about who you truly are. These detours may cause you to forget that you were always meant to thrive and not just survive in life. What if your path hasn't led to a dead-end but a new beginning? Would you be willing to explore unchartered territory that could lead to healing, acceptance, self-love, and empowerment?
During this group you will have a chance to hear others’ experiences as you embark on this new adventure of parenthood. The challenges and joys of raising a child from birth - 2 years old will be addressed. Women will learn tools and share ways to bring a wellness approach to their daily lives, and in turn, help their babies and families too! Some focuses of this group include: Previous Expectations of Life With A Newborn, Baby Blues vs. Postpartum Depression, Postpartum Anxiety, Body Changes, and Returning To Work. This is an open, virtual group.

When's the last time you experienced joy and ease?

After 25 years of working in the field primarily offering individual therapy, I am now most interested in group therapy. My co-therapist and I offer two groups currently. Both groups have openings and are ongoing psychotherapy groups. There is nothing quite like the magic of therapy group. Group can immediately effect feelings of isolation, loneliness and supports healthy connections. Group can normalize human needs for a sense of belonging and support during these most uncertain times. I am accepting new patients and I hope to keep my practice relational with a strong focus on couples, families and group therapy.

When trauma strikes, it shatters our sense of safety. While traditional weekly talk therapy is helpful, somatic approaches offer a more comprehensive path to healing by reconnecting us with our bodies, fostering integration of mind & body as one unified system. In EMDR, the use of eye movements aids in processing traumatic memories to enhance our ability to cope. Intensives help by accelerating this healing process, providing a dedicated & safe environment in a condensed format, ranging from 4-hour sessions to 3-day retreats. Reach out to us for more information on how to schedule your personalized intensive.

Your life may look perfect on the surface—a successful career, a beautiful home, a seemingly ideal relationship—but underneath, there’s a deeper truth. You’ve become a master at hiding your struggles, forcing yourself to keep up appearances. But this comes at a cost: you’ve lost touch with your true self, and life has started to feel like an endless cycle of just getting by. Behind the smiles, there’s a lack of purpose in your career, overwhelming family obligations, and a fading connection in your relationships. You’re grieving the person you used to be, while resenting the person you’ve had to become.
This group meets weekly over 10-weeks to support women in making healthy and self-honoring choices. Here women learn to love themselves while loving others. We focus on boundary setting, asking for what you need, choosing and creating healthy relationships, creating balanced lives, finding and doing fulfilling work, physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional health.

My joy is supporting others in coming back to themselves and ultimately to their connection with others and with the divine. Whether exploring the patterns developed during our conception, birth or early life, or connecting with the body’s wisdom, there is a way we can be with what is happening that allows us to integrate what is most essential. Slowing down, finding your rhythm, tuning in to what you are needing and wanting for yourself, being curious…some sessions are deeply restorative, some profound or surprising, some simply provide the necessary structure for living fully in this 3-D world.

When we've experienced unhealthy relationship dynamics or trauma, it can be hard to know how to trust ourselves and others. This can lead to low self-worth, codependency, repeating unwanted patterns, depression, or relational issues. Safely exploring what is at the core of these issues will allow you to live a more authentic and connected life. I work primarily with women who want to uncover their core beliefs and subconscious patterns in order to consciously create the life they desire. Unburden yourself by learning how to compassionately accept your story, process your emotions, and become the safe, loving place you yearn for.

Do you feel like you are in the same relationships all the time no matter who you are with? Perhaps experiencing attachment to unhealthy patterns and/or people? Maybe you had an unpleasant medical experience and now fear care. Perhaps you look in the mirror and don't feel your best. Maybe you have difficulty saying "no" and lean towards "people-pleasing" tendencies. Because people would be mad at you, right? Do you have difficulty with boundaries? Maybe some FOMO or isolating in your sweats watching Netflix but you want more social interactions? If you answered yes to any or all of these, you are in the right place!

Somewhere along the way you feel you lost yourself. Whether it be in motherhood, wifehood, single-hood, your career, or in relationships. For one reason or another, the person you face in the mirror is not who you thought you would become. That very reason, brought you here and I am so glad you found me. I am here to meet you where you are. True liberation comes when we can accept all of who we are, understanding that every part, no matter how painful, deserves love and care.

Women's Issues Support Groups
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
