Hey there! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of North Carolina. I have 6+ years experience working in the mental health field caring for a variety of populations. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and Mindfulness based strategies. My goal is to support you in finding ways to manage stress and discover the tools you need to navigate life. Currently, services are only being offered online via a HIPAA compliant Telehealth platform.
My treatment style is rooted in a person centered approach where the client’s strengths and interests are identified and utilized. The first session will consist of biopsychosocial assessment which will help us have a full scope of all things contributing to the issue as well as potential resources.
I believe in creating an environment that is safe, non-judgmental and nurturing, which has been a crucial part of my practice and my patients' success and progress.
Clients are encouraged to explore the relationship of their thoughts to their feelings and behaviors. “All limits exist in the mind, and it is only in the mind that they can be overcome”. - Alan Cohen
I completed EMDR training through EMDRIA in 2022. EMDR works to heal the emotions, thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that occur after experiencing a traumatic event.
Mindfulness is used throughout therapy in combination with other modalities. Mindfulness is about paying attention to the present moment as opposed to the internal and external chaos that can occur on a day to day basis.
