I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. I completed my masters degree in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia at both Liberty University and the University of Lynchburg. I have been working in the mental health field for over six years and providing clinical outpatient therapy for over 3 years. I have worked with a diverse group of individuals across many age ranges, ethnicities, and belief systems to achieve a greater sense of agency, purpose, and self acceptance.

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

In our first session together, I will provide a quick overview of how the therapeutic process works in a virtual setting, discuss any questions or concerns you have regarding this process, and most importantly, learn about your personal goals regarding therapy to ensure I am the best fit to meet your needs.

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

The main question I ask myself when working with clients is not, “What kind of treatment do they need?” But “what kind of relationship do they need?” I believe my greatest strength as a therapist is providing a safe and supportive relationship for you to begin healing. I also bring 6 years of mental health experience that allows me to provide quality, evidence-based treatment to meet your unique goals and needs.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I love working with adults of all ages facing challenges related to anxiety, chronic shame, and depression, and who are looking to increase self acceptance, a sense agency, and connectedness with self and others. I enjoy providing support to clients who are motivated to understand themselves and others better, and who are excited to implement new tools and techniques both in and outside of our sessions together.

My treatment methods

Attachment-based

I have worked with adults across a diverse range of ethnicities, ages, socioeconomic status and belief systems, and in my experience, I have witnessed the ways in which early life relationships impact mental health and overall quality of life. I utilize attachment theory to help individuals identify their limiting beliefs that were formed in childhood about themselves, others, and the world. My ultimate goal is to assist clients in establishing a secure relationship first with themselves and then with others to achieve a greater sense of well being and connectedness.

Compassion Focused

I believe that shame is a driving force at the root of most mental illness. I utilize compassion focused techniques to assist individuals with increasing self acceptance and building a secure relationship with themselves and others. By increasing self compassion, I have witnessed clients significantly reduce shame and suffering.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

I am certified in Somatic Internal Family Systems Therapy. I believe this is a powerful method to assist clients with understanding and increasing acceptance of all the different parts of themselves. I have witnessed clients gain powerful insight into their unconscious motivations for repeating unwanted behaviors while simultaneously increasing self-compassion and the ability to self-soothe.
