Overwhelm has become a way of life lending to feelings of anxiety, depression and disconnect. This leads to disruptions relationally with others and ourselves. Understanding how we think, feel, and behave can begin with better self-worth, mood and relationships. I’m not a nod-and-smile, vanilla sort of therapist. You’ll find that I curse, will call you out, hold you accountable, and hopefully leave you laughing and inspired. If I am not REAL, how I can expect my clients to show up in their authentic self? And when you feel safe to be real with me, we can work on how that carries over into the rest of your life.

I specialize in helping adults heal from trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, divorce and relationship challenges, parenting stress, and life transitions.
Openings August 2026! You may be the person that everyone relies on while quietly carrying exhaustion, anxiety, grief, or self-doubt beneath the surface. Perhaps you feel stuck in old patterns, overwhelmed by life transitions, disconnected from yourself, or triggered by reactions that seem larger than the situation. Many of my clients are thoughtful, kind, and overwhelmed. They have spent years caring for others while struggling to extend the same compassion to themselves. Together, we explore not only what is happening today, but also the experiences that shaped how you learned to cope, connect, and survive. Healing is possible.

As a parent, you aren't failing; you are simply navigating a world that wasn't built for your child’s unique brain. If you're feeling frustrated because "standard" parenting advice isn't working, you’re in the right place. I help families in North Carolina and Florida move past the guilt of learning differences. Together, we identify the specific accommodations your child needs to thrive, focusing on executive functioning, focus, and peer relationships. We’ll slow down and find what you truly need to feel successful again.

My approach to therapy is a culmination of my life's work with people in a variety of settings. My philosophy of therapy grows out of my many years as an interfaith pastoral care giver. I have worked with trauma at Albert Einstein Medical Center (Philadelphia, PA). I am a Veteran with combat experience as a Chaplain during Operation Iraqi Freedom. I have served as a clinical, interfaith, spiritual care provider at Pitt County Memorial Hospital (Greenville, NC), Duke HomeCare and Hospice (Durham, NC), and Rex Hospital (Raleigh, NC). I believe that people are "living human documents" continually under revision.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy works best when you don’t have to pretend you’re fine or have it all together. I work with thoughtful, self-aware adults who are ready to move beyond surface-level coping and make meaningful changes—especially when old patterns, roles, or relationships aren’t working anymore.
My style is warm, direct, spunky, and very real. I cuss sometimes. Humor (including dark humor), sarcasm, and honest language are welcome here. I’ll meet you with compassion—and I’ll also gently call you on your BS when it’s getting in the way of the life you want.

I view counseling as an opportunity to provide a secure, nonjudgmental, and loving environment to clients who desire to journey toward healing and growth. Counseling is a collaborative journey, and the client is the expert of their own life. I tend to lean towards Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my approach along with Attachment Theory. I believe that working with clients utilizing a philosophy of interdisciplinary integration incorporating both psychology and theology is helpful to healing. I focus on spiritual growth and the realities of life that can impact relationship, emotional, and developmental issues.

I often work with clients who are carrying the weight of childhood trauma, past experiences, feeling overwhelmed, or just not like themselves. As a therapist, I take a laid-back, authentic approach and really focus on the relationship we build. I show up as a real person (yes, sometimes that includes humor and the occasional swear word) because I don't think therapy should feel stiff or overly clinical. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and able to be fully yourself as we work through the hard stuff together.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
