Our world is in the midst of a global crisis, and everyone’s lives have changed. Our mental health must be prioritized, or we will needlessly suffer as we accept and adapt to what is happening in our lives. Those folks who need my help can no longer come to me. So, I will come to you. I am licensed in the state of North Carolina, which means I can provide teletherapy to anyone in the state. It is my responsibility as your therapist to ensure that remote sessions do not impede the therapeutic relationship or progress toward your goals. Please don’t hesitate – reach out and together let’s get to work! Life is hard, and healthy living can be a challenge. But I believe within us we have the capability, resiliency, and perseverance to better our lives. I believe that all our lives could be enhanced. And I believe that tackling life’s struggles with another is more beneficial than going it alone. Right now, more than ever before, we need others. I help those with anxiety, depression, addiction, mental health related life disruption, marital struggles, and parenting problems. I approach therapy primarily through CBT, ACT, a strength-based approach, and motivational interviewing. I invite (no demand) creativity, community, and humor to help educate, empower, and enhance the lives of others. [Read More]

As a lawyer turned therapist, I get how hard it can be to take a leap of faith when starting something new, what it’s like when you want to make real changes and break old patterns. Perhaps you use food to cope or feel like a workaholic. You feel stuck or stressed, or you’ve tried everything else. Anxiety, depression, weight, career, or relationship problems can leave us feeling drained or pull us away from purpose and fulfillment. Sometimes we need guidance in the self improvement process. My goal is to elevate, encourage, and support you in making positive life changes while promoting hope, choice, and empowerment. I like to incorporate humor and empathy–and spirituality for those who are seeking it– while using a non-judgmental style, and your own strengths, to help you transform you into being your best self. We can integrate strategies and skills, such as mindfulness or Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), to give you practical tools to master everyday life. If you’re ready and willing to try a different path together, I’d like to help you develop and reach your goals and transition from surviving to thriving. Let’s start helping you create the life you truly want and find out what’s possible. Investing in yourself is the next step!

Adjusting to young adulthood can present many with new challenges; “Adulting” represents freedom at best; and overwhelming at worst. My role as a therapist is to walk with you along this pebbled path, and provide a safe space to build resiliency so you can move towards what you truly value.
