Great to meet you!

My ideal clients are thoughtful, anxious, highly-sensitive, tender-hearted, (and maybe a little weird) humans who have spent years navigating anxiety, identity, trauma, and the tangled gravity of family, culture, or religion. They come in feeling hypervigilant, burnt out, disconnected from their bodies, or unable to fully rest, even after building a life that fits better. You may be looking for ease, connection, and space to exist without bracing for impact. I offer a grounded, collaborative space to untangle the past, soften survival mode, and help you move toward sleep, ease, embodiment, and a life that feels more like home.

A little about me, your groovy new therapist:

I am originally from High Point, NC and studied English Language and Literature as well as Pedagogy and the Mind as an undergraduate at East Carolina University. I went on to work for East Carolina University full time while also completing my Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. At the end of my graduate career, I studied abroad in Spain and Portugal and subsequently moved back to High Point, North Carolina. I now live in the Triad area practicing as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist, and National Certified Counselor. In my free time, I love to spend time with my husband, Shanon, our tortie cat, Sacred Jewel, and our silly weenie dog, Huckleberry. I like to draw, paint, collage, and write in journals. I also like philosophical books, comedy, unique cinema, spooky & self-help podcasts, crafting, and occasional gaming. I'm always down for a deep conversation about the universe, nostalgia, eclectic music, a good laugh, and some introspection. I can't wait to hear your story.

My approach to therapy

In this space, therapy is not a prescription, and you are not a case study. I focus on sharing the human experience. Rooted in queer-affirming care, existential and narrative therapy, and harm reduction, my practice integrates top-down understanding with bottom-up wisdom. Therapy with me isn’t about perfection or performance. It’s about presence.

What you can expect from me

This is a place for the questioners, the deep feelers, the critical thinkers, the artists and muses, the queerfolk and neurodivergent, and the beautifully complex. When we hang out in session together, I will meet you where you are free of judgment so we can dig deep into the patterns that shape you. The vast majority of my clients see and feel progress build over several months.

I work with a diverse range of folks including queer and trans folks, and folks navigating life transitions, intergenerational wounds, substance abuse/misuse, and religious trauma. I tend to work well with folks who are creative, introspective, and a little outside the box, who feel ready to relate to themselves with more compassion and less shame and blame.
