Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of North Carolina. I have experience working with adults, adults with SPMI, adolescents, and families seeking support to overcome trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, parenting issues, anger, self-esteem, codependency, and other challenges that arise in life. I completed a Bachelor's and Master of Social Work at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke with a minor in substance abuse. I utilize a collaborative and holistic approach to helping individuals overcome their challenges because they’re experts in their lives.

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

After your first session with me, the main focus should be that you feel comfortable speaking openly with me. I believe that a strong therapeutic alliance should be centered around your level of comfort and my ability to help you in the ways that you need and to the best of my ability.

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

I feel my biggest strength is being relatable through my personal experiences with mental health issues, and being easy to talk to. I highly encourage my clients to be able to speak freely and frankly with me.
