Great to meet you!

I work with adults, teens, and children for concerns related to depression, anxiety, and trauma. I received my M.Ed. in Counseling and Development from Winthrop University, and I have over 3 years of counseling experience in working with individuals and families. Whether you’re seeking support, need help in making positive changes, or pursuing self-discovery to create a more fulfilling life, I'm here for you!

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach uses techniques that are person-centered, goal directed, and tailored to your unique counseling needs. I use therapies that help reduce anxiety and depression, build self-worth and confidence, and give you tools to better cope with life's challenges.

What you can expect from our first session

My goal is for you to feel supported, understood, and empowered at the end of every session to help you reach your personal and counseling goals. Feel free to reach out via phone or email to ask questions and discuss services. I'm excited to meet you!
