Throughout my career, I have seen how empowering it can be to provide a safe and “soft place to land” as individuals explore their values, beliefs, and life experiences. I provide individual and family therapy for ages 12 and older. My specialties include anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, life transitions, and relationship challenges, particularly between parents and children. I especially enjoy working with highly sensitive persons (HSP), drawing on specialized training and deep appreciation for their unique strengths and perspectives. I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Brainspotting, integrating evidence-based approaches that support healing and resilience. I am also an approved HSP-knowledgeable therapist through Elaine Aron.

As a native of Charlotte, I have witnessed our community change and develop over time. In that same spirit, I welcome the opportunity to support individuals as they navigate transitions and experience thoughtful, lasting change.
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in psychology from Auburn University and my Master’s Degree in Social Work (MSW) from Winthrop University. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina and provide telehealth services for South Carolina residents.

I am a provider for Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Meritain Health, and MedCost. While I am not a provider for UnitedHealthcare, Carawell Counseling can provide a superbill for submission toward out-of-network benefits.
