My experience as a therapist is grounded in the belief that it is a deeply personal process where you must feel safe and supported and also be truly seen and heard. I provide individual and family therapy to those ages 12 and older. My specialties are the treatment of anxiety and depression, grief, and trauma, particularly when related to life transitions. I practice from a client-centered lens while integrating evidence-based approaches into the interventions and work. I want you to leave your session with therapeutic skills that are meaningful and useful in everyday life as you cope with whatever you may be facing. You will find I am very relational in my approach using warmth and authenticity in the therapy process. Together, we will tailor each session to meet your needs and support you in working through the challenges you bring to therapy.

I am a proud “Charlottean” and have a strong love for my hometown and community. I am a graduate of the University of Alabama (Roll Tide!) where I received my Bachelor’s degree in psychology. I received my Master’s Degree in Social Work (MSW) from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte where I deepened my commitment to understanding the whole person in their environment. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina and provide both in-person and telehealth sessions for NC residents.

I am a provider for Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Meritain, and Medcost insurances. While I am not an in-network provider for United Healthcare, Carawell Counseling can provide a superbill for submission toward out-of-network benefits.
