Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, body image concerns, or an unhealthy relationship with food? Maybe perfectionism makes you feel like you’re never enough, or past experiences have shaped negative beliefs about yourself. You might feel exhausted from trying to meet impossible standards, unsure how to quiet the inner critic that keeps you stuck. Your goal is to feel more confident, free from the cycle of overthinking, restriction, or emotional eating. You want balance, peace, and the ability to trust yourself again—but you don’t have to find the way alone.
I provide evidence-based online therapy for adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, body image concerns, and eating disorders. Licensed in NC, SC, and FL, I offer compassionate, nonjudgemental support. Schedule a session today—visit my website, email, or call (980) 689-1794 for accessible, professional care from the comfort of home.
Taking the first step toward change can be tough, but you’re not alone. I offer compassionate online therapy for residents of NC, SC, and FL in a safe, supportive space. Schedule a convenient virtual session by visiting my website, emailing me, or calling (980) 689-1794.
