In the context of an accepting, supportive, and trusting relationship, I can help you find solutions to your life’s challenges and psychological issues.  In my over twenty years of experience, I have worked primarily with adults and older adults on issues of anxiety, depression, and the stressors that can emerge with major life changes.  I utilize a relational and eclectic approach to therapy, as I believe that your comfort in therapy is important in healing and I like to honor my clients as unique beings by finding the modality that fits best for them.  In addition, I am trained in EMDR.  ​

Life can be overwhelming and sometimes even exhausting, but I’m here to guide you through any obstacles you may face. My goal is to help you understand yourself more deeply and better cope with change.​

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who received my Master’s degree in Social Work in 2003. I have worked in a number of settings as a social worker working with adults including community centers, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, and in private practice. I moved to North Carolina in May, 2012 and enjoy being active, seeing movies, and eating a great meal.
