Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I graduated from East Carolina University with my Master's degree. I have been practicing for two-and-a-half years and have helped a wide variety of individuals who suffer from diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I engage clients by utilizing a strengths-based perspective and build upon strengths they may already have.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, client can expect a brief introduction followed by the root of their concerns, their life story, and the goals they would like to achieve through therapy.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Having worked with a variety of individuals, I have been told I am very caring, empathic, and provide a calming presence for others. I listen rather than try to direct.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Thoughts, feelings, and actions are all intertwined and can change the outcome of situations and perspectives. By identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, I can assist in teaching clients how to reframe unhelpful thoughts and connect these thoughts to their perspectives in different situations. I have been engaging in CBT for two and a half years and seek to continuously understand how our thoughts and feelings connect to everything around us.

Motivational Interviewing

Utilizing a strengths-based perspective, I help clients in finding the courage to change and improve their quality of life. I strive to empower clients who feel helpless in their lives and take action in the places they can grow in.

Positive Psychology

Each individual has unique qualities and strengths that are different from others. By building upon the strengths that each individual has, I help clients use their strengths to better their lives and build upon the skills they may already have.
