About me

Hello. I am a highly experienced Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with years of dedicated practice in the mental health field. I hold a Masters Degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. I am actively licensed in North Carolina, and working on licensure in additional states. Throughout my career, I have worked in various clinical settings, including private practices, community mental health centers, and renowned healthcare institutions. I also possess a wealth of expertise in treating a broad range of psychological issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties. I practice from a client-centered and evidence-based approach, tailoring therapeutic interventions to meet the unique needs of each individual. I provide a client-focused, warm, and empathetic environment. Both in-person and virtually. This, combined with extensive clinical knowledge, has helped me earn a reputation as a trusted and effective therapist within the community.
