Are you looking for a down-to-earth therapist that is non-judgmental and can provide safe space for you to express your feelings? Are you ready to be challenged in a warm, productive way?:-)I am here to help! I provide therapy to women, teens/young adults, couples, and folx of color. I support my clients in navigating life transitions, rebuilding confidence, moving through difficult experiences- past or present, and re-discovering joy. My strengths are helping clients with stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I currently provide therapy to residents of North Carolina & South Carolina.
My work is blended and eclectic. I have training in several modalities including IFS and Brainspotting:-), but my goal is to simply learn what works best for you. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop practical tools for lasting change—all within a trauma-informed, culturally responsive framework.
Whether virtual or in person, I offer therapy that feels genuine, warm, and real. With the right fit, therapy can be healing- and also human and transparent. I offer a 15 minute consultation for those who would like to chat to determine if I am a good fit. If not, my practice also includes other therapists who are available to serve you!

I work with clients who have challenges with trauma, depression, anxiety, stress related to life adjustment, and friendships or intimate relationships. I get to know clients and help to set and prioritize goals for therapy. I am a solution-focused brief therapist, essentially meaning, clients tend to slowly feel better within the first 4-6 weeks and continue for maintenance if they choose.
