I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of South Carolina. My counseling style is Adlerian, a supportive and collaborative approach that focuses on encouragement, healthy connections, and meaningful goals. I also hold certification in play therapy, which I completed during my associateship in North Carolina, and I enjoy using creative approaches to support both children and adults.
Before becoming a therapist, I worked in journalism, but my own healing journey through therapy and recovery from addiction inspired me to follow my true calling. Since 2017, I’ve been in recovery, and those personal experiences allow me to connect with clients from a place of understanding and compassion.
Since joining AMA Behavioral Therapy in 2023, I have received extensive training in evidence-based treatment for OCD and have seen the life-changing impact it can bring. I also have experience supporting clients with depression, trauma, grief, ADHD, identity exploration, and behavioral concerns.
I’ve worked with diverse populations, including military service members, children (ages 4+), and adults from many different backgrounds. I am especially committed to providing affirming, allied care for the LGBTQIA+ community and strive to create a safe, welcoming space for every client.
My goal is to walk alongside each person with empathy, encouragement, and respect as they move toward healing and growth.
