About
I know firsthand the pain of life and mental illness, and my passion is to provide hope to those who feel hurt, lonely, and misunderstood by using a blend of faith-based and cognitive behavioral therapy.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate with over 4 years of experience supporting individuals and families through their healing journeys. I help clients manage depression, anxiety, and mood disorders while building coping skills and resilience. I enjoy incorporating faith-based principles when welcomed, creating a therapeutic space that aligns with each client’s values. My goal is to help clients uncover strength and hope, using compassion and collaboration as the foundation for growth. I empower clients to recognize their resilience and practice positive change daily.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of South Carolina. My approach is strength-based, integrating cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy techniques to help clients build new perspectives, reframe distress, and develop healthier coping tools.
I look forward to welcoming you into a safe, judgment-free space where your story matters. No one is beyond healing, and I believe in meeting each client with empathy and understanding. Together, we’ll navigate challenges, uncover strengths, and take meaningful steps toward emotional wellness and peace.

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.

As a member of the lgbtqia+ community, with long term health conditions, I understand how important it is to have someone to talk to and work through life's challenges.
I am a licensed professional counselor with 9 years of experience supporting clients through anxiety, depression, addiction, lgbtqia+ concerns, life transitions, and self-esteem challenges. I take an open-minded and eclectic approach to treatment, drawing from cbt, motivational interviewing, and person-centered strategies to help clients feel safe, understood, and empowered to explore their experiences without judgment.
I hold a master’s degree in rehabilitation counseling from the University of South Carolina. My background includes adlerian theory and a range of evidence-based interventions that help clients examine where unhelpful thoughts originate and how to replace them with healthier beliefs and choices.
I am here to support you with compassion and collaboration. Wherever you are starting from, whatever you have experienced, and whatever goals you’re working toward, we can walk through it together. I would be honored to be part of your growth and help you move toward a more grounded, hopeful version of yourself.

When working with clients who have trauma, there are now many different evidence-based approaches available to them. The client should be encouraged to seek a trauma-informed therapist and ask them what their approach(es) is and for a brief explanation of the techniques they use, such as EMDR, talk therapy, or somatic therapy.
Some tools that may be utilized are learning to meditate, deep breathing, identifying triggers, and learning how to regulate emotions.
Progress is typically measured by the achievement of individual goals that have been identified at the beginning of therapy.
Clients may be encouraged to utilize coping skills they have learned in therapy, such as meditating, relaxation exercises, journaling, support groups, and talking to loved ones.
The client should ask themselves what they need from therapy and identify the symptoms the have been struggling with.
