I help people heal from trauma, with a special focus on sexual trauma, and I’ve been honored to support a wide range of individuals — including women, men, military veterans, and LGBTQIA clients — as they work through their experiences and take meaningful steps toward healing. I also enjoy helping people work through challenging life transitions (e.g., parenthood, divorce, etc.) and identity-specific concerns (e.g., men's issues, women's issues, gender identity exploration). In addition to individual therapy, I also provide relationship therapy for monogamous, non-monogamous, and open relationships as well as psychological assessment (e.g., ADHD, dementia, learning disorder, mental health) for adults.

Therapist

Stress, anxiety, panic, trauma, or depression taking away your peace? You don’t have to keep feeling stuck, defeated, or disconnected from the life you want. After a decade as a chiropractor helping people with back and joint pain, I discovered a powerful pattern: unresolved emotional pain can affect us physically, mentally, and emotionally. That realization led me to counseling—and to a passion for helping people heal from the inside out. I work with concerns including anxiety, trauma, ADHD, addiction, mood disorders, chronic pain, codependency, phobias, and women’s issues.

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I know how hard it is to learn to talk about difficult things. That made me want to help others learn to do the same. I started by volunteering at rape crisis and domestic violence shelters. When I was at these places I did outreach in the community and ran support groups for both. For a time, I took rape crisis hospital calls to support people who had come in for sexual assault exams. This work that taught me to be comfortable talking about anything, at any time, with anyone. I have worked with all types of individuals from ages 12 and up. My first Masters was an intensive dive into Human Rights. My second Masters was in Counseling so I could work with individuals to help them beyond the crisis moments. My passion is to help people progress towards healing.
