Change can happen with the right support and a place to begin. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years of outpatient experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I specialize in OCD, anxiety, and eating disorders, and also support clients with depression, ADHD, ODD, bipolar disorder, autism, relationship concerns, and life transitions. I collaborate with parents, schools, and other providers when appropriate. I currently offer virtual therapy throughout North Carolina and welcome the opportunity to support you wherever you are in your journey.
I approach therapy with patience, collaboration, and compassion, recognizing that every client brings a unique story and strengths. I tailor treatment to your individual needs and goals, using evidence-based strategies to help you gain insight, build resilience, and create lasting change.
Whether we're building coping skills, working through difficult emotions, or navigating life transitions, you'll leave each session with practical tools and a clearer sense of how to move forward. Together, we'll explore your challenges while also building on your strengths, values, and what matters most to you.
