I am a therapist and clinical director for Heart of Peace Counseling PLLC in Hickory, NC. I am committed to supporting individuals of all ages as they navigate the complexities of life who are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, separation, or adjustments related to life challenges. I specialize in helping individuals heal from PTSD caused by traumatic experiences, such as abuse, neglect, domestic or community violence, natural disasters, injuries, or challenges faced by veterans. My goal is to empower clients to set meaningful goals, embrace change, find peace, and ultimately create a life filled with hope and resilience.
I am trained in EMDR (for adolescents and adults with trauma), certified in both TF-CBT (to address traumatic experiences for children) and AF-CBT (to address child and parent conflict, anger and aggression in children and/or their caregivers). I’m trained in multiple therapeutic interventions including CBT, DBT, and person centered, solution focused therapy
I understand that taking the first step toward seeking help can feel overwhelming. My priority is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and valued. Together, we can navigate challenges and explore meaningful ways to move forward. You don’t have to face this alone—I’m here to help when you’re ready.

I use a variety of therapy models specifically tailored to each client. In Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and actions. In TF-CBT you will gain insight into the impact of traumatic experiences and how they can impact your life and the lives of others around you, and you will work to gain positive coping skills and learn to manage symptoms.
