I also incorporate a solution focused approach to situations that are not heavy as others.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina, Virginia, and Florida. We are faced with so many obstacles in life that we never expected. Sometimes it is difficult navigating different stages in our life, we have challenges within our relationships, or we are being pulled in so many different directions, we don't know where to start. Then there are those moments that are so heavy and we are exhausted from carrying the burden all on our own. This can make us feel lost and overwhelmed. My approach to therapy is centered around you and your needs. I am here to help you navigate those unexpected obstacles.

My approach integrates many treatment modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy, emotion focused therapy, motivational interviewing, solution focused, and other evidence based practices.
As we voyage through life, it is inevitable that we will face the unexpected. Often times, this means taking on challenges beyond our familiarity and traversing obstacles we can conquer with guidance. My experience and proficiency has allowed me to guide individuals toward their overall recovery and wellness in a variety of areas. My expertise involves working with adults who live with chemical addiction (drugs and alcohol), process addiction (gambling, sex, video games etc.), anxiety, depression, parenting/family issues, Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and major life transitions.

When people face trauma or loss of connection with their loved ones, they can feel as if their lives are coming undone. Life after trauma can be overwhelming as we begin to feel fragmented, powerless, and without hope. As a U.S. Marine veteran, I also understand the unique struggles and strengths that military life brings. I am passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families build on their strengths to reconnect with others and bring resilience and comfort back into their lives. I believe that emphasizing our strengths is key to our healing, as we see ourselves more whole and more at peace with each new discovery.
