I am a Christian Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My faith in the Holy Trinity of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit greatly shape my life, my work and my desire to help others heal on their life's journey. I believe each person has their own unique perspectives and challenges. You have everything you need within you to achieve your goals and heal. I’m willing to work with you as you work through life’s challenges. We will use a variety of techniques called modalities because I believe in treating you like the individual you are.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in North Carolina. I received my Master's Degree in Social Work with an Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology/ Minor in Criminal Justice. I began my professional career working with at-risk children, teens and their families. I then expanded into working with adults providing individual and group therapy. My professional career is roughly 15+ years. I've worked within homes, schools, residential facilities, military installations, and community based programs. I'm currently focusing on providing individual therapy within a variety of mental health disorders.
