Starting therapy can feel overwhelming when you’ve spent so long trying to hold everything together. I work with adults and teens navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, recovery, or major life transitions. Many of my clients feel exhausted, overstimulated, or stuck in patterns they’re ready to change. I offer a calm, supportive space to breathe, regroup, and heal. Now offering in-person and virtual sessions.
I provide trauma-informed, evidence-based therapy with a warm and collaborative approach. Together, we’ll explore patterns, build coping skills, strengthen emotional resilience, and create lasting change. Sessions are tailored to your needs, whether you’re healing from trauma, navigating recovery, or working toward balance.
You don’t have to carry everything alone. I’ll meet you where you are with empathy, clarity, and support. Healing is possible, and you deserve a space where you feel understood and safe to grow. Now accepting Medicaid and select insurance through Waves of Hope, with in-person sessions in Winston-Salem and secure telehealth across North Carolina.
