I am a compassionate and empathetic therapist who believes that every person has unique strengths, even during life's most difficult seasons. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply feeling overwhelmed, I work alongside you to help you gain insight, develop practical coping skills, and move toward the life you want to live.

As the owner of Cape Fear Counseling in Fayetteville, North Carolina, I am committed to providing quality, evidence-based care that is tailored to each individual's needs. In addition to my clinical work, I serve as an adjunct professor, where I enjoy helping educate and mentor the next generation of mental health professionals. My teaching experience allows me to stay current with research and best practices while bringing that knowledge into the therapy room in a practical, relatable way.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. Rather than offering quick fixes, I work alongside you to better understand your experiences, identify your strengths, and develop meaningful strategies for lasting change. I tailor treatment to your unique needs, drawing from evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions.
