I am an alumna of North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University and University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
With a nursing career spanning since 2008, I have dedicated over 15 years to understanding the complexities of patient care. After earning my Master’s Degree in 2021, I transitioned into advanced psychiatric practice in 2022. Having served in both fast-paced inpatient units and collaborative outpatient clinics, I offer a well-rounded perspective on mental health. My background allows me to blend clinical expertise with a deeply rooted compassion for the human experience.
I believe everyone deserves to experience the joy and peace that comes from healing. If you're feeling stuck in darkness, weighed down by past experiences, or caught in negative thought patterns, you're not alone—and you don't have to navigate it by yourself.
For more than 34 years, I've helped individuals, primarily women, heal from trauma, build self-esteem, and create meaningful, lasting change. I have advanced training in EMDR and specialize in helping clients process traumatic experiences so they can move forward with greater confidence and emotional freedom.
My approach is holistic, recognizing the connection between your mind, body, and emotions. Together, we'll create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to reach your therapy goals. My hope is to help you move beyond simply surviving so you can fully experience the joy, fulfillment, and life you deserve.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Raleigh
Finding the right therapist in Raleigh starts with getting clear on what kind of support you're looking for. Common reasons people seek therapy include anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. Knowing your goals — even broadly — can help you narrow your search to providers with relevant experience.
From there, look for a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern. Raleigh has a large community of licensed therapists (LPCs, LCSWs, LMFTs) and psychiatrists, many of whom offer both in-person and virtual sessions. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style and approach, which makes it easier to decide if they're a good match before you book.
Therapy in Raleigh can be expensive without coverage, but affordable options exist when you use in-network insurance. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits your needs and your budget.
