I welcome clients of all ages but regularly work with teens (11+), college & graduate students and young adults.
Sometimes the parts of our lives that promise the most happiness become sources of anxiety, disappointment, or frustration. As a therapist at Potter Counseling, I aim to create a warm, welcoming space where you can speak openly about these things and be taken seriously. I will invite you to tell your story, to reflect on formative relationships and experiences, and to grow in awareness of current thought patterns, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we will set values-oriented goals, and you will experiment with new skills and ways of thinking to leave you feeling more confident and effective in important roles and relationships.

To me, therapy isn’t a workbook or a road map that’s the same for everyone. Therapy is about meeting you where you are. I want to learn about your unique strengths, values, goals, and struggles.

I am curious about what brings you fulfillment and exploring avenues to infuse joy into your days, with a strength-based, benefit-enhancement approach. I view therapy as a collaborative process, know that you are the expert on your own experience, and meet each client as the individual you are.

I work with neurotypical and neurodivergent individuals from adolescents to older adults, addressing issues like depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, autism, grief, relationship conflicts, self-injury, disordered eating, and establishing healthy boundaries.

I view the therapeutic relationship as a partnership and my role as your support, as we work together to achieve your goals, deepen your understanding of and connection to your most authentic self, and recognize your inherent worthiness of joy and love.
With a trauma-informed and person-centered focus, I practice from a place of cultural humility, and am intentional in fostering a space that feels safe and affirming for anyone who enters the room.
You're not alone. And together, we'll figure it out!

I work with adults and older teens in North Carolina and Oregon who are seeking assistance with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, and identity development and change.
My primary training is in Internal Family Systems, an approach that helps us understand and heal parts of ourselves that may be wounded or in conflict. I also draw on other somatic therapies and mindfulness. These approaches help us to work with what's beneath our familiar narratives and find the roots of our hurt and distress so that they can be healed.
