About
As a therapist who has participated in therapy myself, I know how important it is to find a provider you connect with and feel truly seen by. I specialize in seeing the person in the room as a fully unique human being and in working with them to untangle the challenges they’re facing so they can grow into their fullest potential.
As a licensed master social worker (LMSW) with 4 years of experience, I've worked in a variety of settings where I’ve helped people navigate a range of issues including trauma, anxiety, relational conflict, and depression. From an intensive outpatient program to a major medical hospital, I’ve sat with people on some of the worst days of their lives, accompanying them through immense grief and loss, chronic stress, vicarious trauma, and major life transitions. I work with preteens to older adults using a flexible, integrative approach that weaves together evidence-based practices with each client’s individual needs and preferences.
I earned my master’s in social work from the University of Tennessee. I use tools like acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions, but above all my priority is to show up as just another human in the room, navigating this hard, messy, beautiful life alongside my clients.
In our work together, I will sit with you in your pain, your confusion, your anger, or whatever you’re bringing into the space, and help you be with it, make sense of it, and ultimately, transform it. Therapy can be hard. Life is hard. And yet here you are, because you know there’s something better waiting for you. Let’s find out what it is.

My go-to approach for treating depression is holding space for feelings. I find that providing someone space where they can process their emotions gives them the opportunity to listen to themselves and discover what their goal is.
Self-care is always a helpful place to start when beginning a therapy journey. Discussing self-care and providing information on what it is is often helpful in regaining energy to manage day-to-day tasks. Emotional regulation skills are also very helpful for navigating depression. Depression can feel like an emotional or energy sap, and emotional regulation skills can help increase a person's ability to maintain/improve energy levels.
I know a client is making meaningful progress in counseling when they tell me they are. As a social worker, I believe that the client is the expert in their life. As the clinician, I am here as a supporter and a listener to help them reach their goals.
Clients can supplement their time in counseling by listening to their bodies. Checking in with yourself can help you know when to push yourself and when to be gentle with yourself. Every person's healing journey is unique, and taking care of yourself is a great way to have the energy to make the progress that you want to make.
Every person's healing journey is unique. One way to prepare for your first counseling session is to think about what your goal in therapy is.

No one ever plans on being depressed, which is one reason why it’s so difficult to overcome. It often appears unexpectedly and stays longer than you ever thought possible. To be depressed is common, but for some people, the dark feelings of hopelessness and despair are debilitating.

Depression affects approximately 15 million adults in America in any given year. Depression often stems from an event or circumstance, which negatively impacts the way a person thinks or feels. It often leads to both emotional and physical problems that can impact a person’s ability to perform routine tasks at home and work.
It’s important to recognize that depression is not simply grief or sadness. If you have experienced the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, significant changes in health or wellness, or other life transitions, you may still benefit from speaking with a counselor. These experiences occur as part of our normal daily lives. Feelings of grief and sadness often come and go, the intensity of which generally diminishes over time. However, if you have experienced depressed mood and feelings of despair for more than two weeks, don’t wait another day – contact a supportive and encouraging depression counselor today.
While the source of depression is varied, there are many common symptoms. Some of these symptoms include:
If you’re suffering from one or more of these symptoms, you may be dealing with depression. There’s never been a better time to begin your journey of healing. You can get help for depression. A caring and supportive depression therapist in Greenville is ready to help you.
