My 15 year journey in the Human Services field has led me to specializing in career focused individuals who are managing stressful jobs. I will partner with you to develop self-care and coping strategies that work for you. We will work together to confront false belief systems and reconstruct belief systems that are accurate and promote positivity. In addition, if you are navigating life challenges such as dealing with the loss of a loved one, estrangement from family members, loss of independence, or adjusting to change in life such as empty nest or retirement, then I am your counselor. By using different modalities and incorporating your own spiritual and religious beliefs, you will be empowered to face life challenges in a new and meaningful way.

“I can’t go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.” – Alice in Wonderland. Those who find my style most helpful are those looking for a non-traditional therapist. My specialties include couples and families with high conflict, personality disorders, struggles with spirituality, cultural diversity, LGBTQIA+ community including polyamory/ethical non-monogamy, folx living with HIV, cis/trans couples.
I am licensed in NC for in person/online and Florida online only. As an experiential therapist at heart, I am also foundationally trained in DBT and integrate DBT skills. When working with couples, I primarily use Gottman Method Couples therapy. Additionally, I am trained in Gottman’s Seven Principles of Making a Marriage Work and provide weekend intensives.
The hardest work is the work that starts at home. If you are looking for someone to navigate through the chaos of life, I provide a genuine and safe space to explore the struggle of inevitable changes. I believe internal work can be the most difficult and the most rewarding for a person, couple, or family-regardless of the structure.
