Great to meet you!

I realized my passion for counseling during the pursuit of my BA in Human Services from Gardner-Webb University, NC. I sealed this calling earning a MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Montreat College, NC. I count it as a blessing to walk along side individuals, as they contemplate life's journey and explore the roads less traveled.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I have utilized integrative counseling approaches throughout my diversified employment history. My background includes: Counseling, Criminal Justice, Population Health Management, Clergy, and Vocational Rehabilitation. These opportunities helped me become multiculturally sound; learning, "Treatment isn't one size fits all."

What you can expect from our first session

I want you as an individual to find balance, acceptance, and wholeness. The human experience involves the body, mind, and spirit; which is the essence of true harmony.
