If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, you don't have to figure it out alone.

I help adults work through anxiety, ADHD, depression, and the stress of big life transitions so you can move forward with more clarity, confidence, and a renewed sense of direction.

I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with over a decade of clinical experience, and I bring a calm, grounded presence to the work.

My background spans trauma-informed care, support for college students building self-advocacy and success strategies (especially those with learning differences), and extensive work with the military community — including wounded warriors and their families.

Whether you're navigating a career or life change, managing attention or focus challenges, working through anxiety or depression, or facing relationship stress, I offer a safe, collaborative space where real growth is possible.

Clients often describe me as warm, real, non-judgmental, and direct in a supportive way. I'm LGBTQIA+ affirming and welcome people from all backgrounds with a spirit of inclusion and care.

Frequently asked questions

Therapy Chair

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Charlotte

Finding the right OCD therapist in Charlotte starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Obsessive-compulsive disorder involves a cycle of intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions), and treatment approaches often include specialized talk therapy; a qualified mental health professional can help determine what may be appropriate for you. Not every therapist has training in ERP, so looking for a provider who lists OCD as a primary specialty — rather than one of many — can make a meaningful difference.

Charlotte has a range of mental health providers across neighborhoods like SouthPark, Ballantyne, University City, and NoDa, including therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists. If you're unsure where to start, a qualified healthcare professional can assess your symptoms, discuss treatment options, and help you decide on a care plan. Some people benefit from working with both. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach, training, and whether they're a good match for your specific concerns.

OCD therapy in Charlotte can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many people pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who specializes in OCD and accepts your coverage.
