Hello! I am an LCSWA practicing in Cary, NC. I specialize in working with adult individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, life transitions, and interpersonal relationship issues. In the therapy space you can expect me to center you in your own therapeutic journey. I recognize that the therapy experience is different for everyone, and I enjoy building a supportive therapeutic relationship with my clients that fosters an empathetic space for growth and self-actualization. I am a gender-affirming provider who will advocate for my clients as necessary in medical spaces.

I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship between client and clinician is key in order for growth to happen. Once mutual respect and trust are established, I work toward gaining a deeper understanding of the client, their needs, and what obstacles they’ve found themselves faced with. I offer a space of non-judgment, empathy, and support in which clients can feel safe to open up and share their authentic selves. Upon meeting, I'll work with the client to create a treatment plan and goals, knowing that there is no one-size-fits-all plan. I most commonly work with those struggling with depression, anxiety, and family issues.

I work with young people, adolescents, adults, and families of all configurations, with a special focus on the LGBTQIA+ community. I have experience working with clients from a wide range of cultural and socio-economic backgrounds as well a passion for creating safe and healthy spaces for people to explore themselves and their relationships.

At Lifeologie Counseling in North Raleigh, I partner with adolescents and adults of all ages to support them in navigating crises and life transitions, implementing useful strategies for managing anxiety and depression, addressing trauma, processing grief, and finding new, meaningful ways to work through conflict in relationships.

I became a therapist because I value complexity. We each have our own vision for a life that feels vibrant, authentic, and fulfilling. As your therapist, it's my job to walk with you through the process of learning about yourself, growing, and getting more of what you want out of life. I work primarily with queer and trans people age 11 and older but offer individual, relationship, and family therapy services to clients of all backgrounds. I also offer autism and ADHD assessments for adolescents and adults.

Are you wanting to make changes in your life? Everyone needs extra support now and then, especially when going through life changes such as starting college, moving to a new state or town, changes in work, or changes to relationships. I specialize in working with women with ADHD, and I have a great deal of experience working with women with: anxiety, life transitions, women’s issues, and mild to moderate depression.

“You are perfect the way you are and you can always grow and do better” This statement is central to my approach and the kind of space I create for my clients. Life can be challenging, overwhelming, and stressful, but self-acceptance and self-love free us to build the skills we need to cope with relationships, family, work, and life. This journey is not easy. It requires self-reflection, awareness, exploration of thoughts and feelings, and a willingness to change. As a therapist, I believe that our mental health, sex life, and relationships are all interconnected and approach therapy from a holistic perspective.

Waitlist for new clients - Something isn’t working, maybe your mind has been racing and you don’t know how to quiet it down, maybe painful feelings keep you up at night or you don't know what you really want your life to be. If you're thinking you'd like some help figuring out what is going on and how you can create change in your life, I'm happy to use my experience as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor to provide the support and information you could find useful. My clients have told me they left therapy understanding themselves better, feeling more confident they can manage their emotions and improved at work or school.

Should I stay or should I go? A huge question that's weighed on you. It keeps you up at night, stressing you out. Life would be so much easier if your relationship wasn't so hard. You wish you could communicate better; feel understood. But, damn, your shit and their shit get in the way. Not to mention the pressures of career, aging parents, or demanding children. It all gets thrown in the mix, leaving you exhausted, distracted, and disenchanted by the status quo. You want things to change (better sex, intimacy, connection); you're finally ready to take charge of your life in a new and meaningful way. You've come to the right place!

I care deeply about working to empower my clients to live healthier, happier lives. I have experience working with children, teens, adults, individuals, couples, and families. I specialize in helping my clients increase their self-esteem, work through identity issues, conquer anxiety and challenges of existentialism, improve communication, set healthy boundaries, and heal past traumas.

The aim of my work is to help you draft and refine the narrative of your life, identify core values and beliefs, and look for ways to apply those values to strengthen your sense of self. Some of these narratives may include experiences of depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and relationship issues. As a therapist, I employ warmth, humor, and softness to create a space where you can identify and bring down the barriers keeping you from who you want to be. As a social worker, I wish to meet you where you are, then walk alongside you down your preferred path, simply helping with forks in the road.

Are you looking for a safe, inclusive space in which to explore your identity? Process trauma? Deal with the loss of a loved one? Improve communication in your relationships? I might be a good fit for you! I enjoy working with clients ages 10 and up who are struggling with issues such as gender identity and sexuality challenges, relational challenges, childhood trauma, adulthood trauma, grief, anxiety, and depression. I also particularly enjoy working with adolescents and young adults who may be struggling socially or academically.
