I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor associate (LCMHCA) committed to helping adults of all ages learn how to build and further develop healthy coping skills and work through life’s difficult periods of transition. My work aims to target unhealthy patterns of thinking, systemic messages. and how these both affect the ways we view ourselves.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (LCMHCA). I earned both my M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and B.A. in Psychology from North Carolina A&T State University. I aim to provide people with the support and resources needed in order to help them move forward in life. I primarily use techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Theory (CBT) to help meet the needs of each client. It is a goal-oriented theory that looks at unhelpful thinking patterns and how they impact how people feel about themselves. I offer a safe space for clients to be themselves and feel open to share anything. I am interested in working with youth and adults.

​I have wanted to work with children for as long as I can remember. When I graduated from my undergrad, I worked in the school district, working with kids of varying abilities, ages, personalities, and challenges. I developed my advocacy skills to be able to support their parents in helping their children grow. I have a heart for watching kids overcome unthinkable circumstances and demonstrate resilience through trauma. I have had the privilege of supporting adolescents through their high school to college transition and have found joy in watching them achieve their goals. My office is designed to be a fun, safe space for all.

I obtained my master’s of education in clinical mental health counseling from North Carolina State University in 2020. As an advocate, I developed a niche for working with children with behavioral, emotional, ability, and educational differences. I completed TFCBT training through Duke University in 2022.

Through expressive art, play, & a tailored blend of approaches, I am here to provide your child with the skills to overcome obstacles. There is no one “right” approach and I strive to meet my clients’ unique needs.
