Great to meet you!

I am a social worker licensed in North Carolina with 22 years of professional experience. I specialize in helping clients with struggling with addictions, motivation, self esteem, confidence, career difficulties, and major life changes. I also can assist with career or professional coaching. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
