As a licensed therapist in North Carolina, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life's complex emotional landscapes. My professional approach centers on helping clients address depression, anxiety, and significant life transitions with compassion and expertise.
I have extensive experience working with older adults and individuals facing challenges related to aging, chronic health conditions, and social isolation. My practice focuses on helping clients develop meaningful coping strategies, improve communication skills, and rediscover personal purpose.
My therapeutic style is grounded in understanding each person's unique journey. I create a supportive environment where clients can explore difficult emotions, work through social anxieties, and develop resilience.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
