Great to meet you!

I am the owner of Appalachian Therapy Services, PLLC and a LCSW who practices tele-therapy in the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains of NC. I offer psychological services to adults aged 18 and older and have extensive experience working with professionals, athletes, healthcare workers, first responders, and those in the aviation industry. I am currently accepting new clients in NC, FL, TX ,UT and NV.

My approach to therapy

My work focuses on helping others to navigate challenges such as trauma, grief, burnout, conflict resolution, faith crises, and identity exploration. I strive to create a safe and compassionate space for my clients and I am committed to fostering collaborative relationships that empower individuals to achieve positive change. I love working with people from all walks of life who are truly invested in their own healing. My therapy assistant (dog) may often be seen quietly snoozing during online sessions.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is designed to be a comfortable space where we can begin building a 'roadmap' for your journey. If you’re feeling nervous, please know that’s completely normal—we’ll navigate those feelings together at your pace. You can expect a relaxed conversation where I’ll ask some questions to get to know you better. I also encourage you to bring any questions of your own about my experience or the therapeutic process. My goal is for you to leave our first meeting with clarity and a sense of partnership.
