A Little About Me

I became a therapist because I believe that everyone deserves a space where they can be fully honest - maybe for the first time in a long time.

 A lot of the women I work with are high-functioning on the outside and exhausted on the inside. They're managing careers, relationships, family, and expectations - and somewhere in all of that, they've lost track of themselves. That's not a character flaw. That's just what happens when you've been taking care of everything and everyone except yourself.

  • I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) fully licensed in South Carolina. I am also a National Board Certified Counselor (NCC). I earned a B.A. at the University of South Carolina and an M.Ed. at The Citadel.

    I spent my early career as a school counselor, where I developed a deep foundation in how patterns form early in life - work that now informs how I help adults understand and shift those same patterns.

    I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). My approach is also grounded in attachment theory and is person-centered. I use a holistic, integrative approach in all sessions.

    • Anxiety and worry that won't quiet down

    • Life transitions - career changes, new relationships, loss, becoming a mother, empty nest

    • Self-worth and people-pleasing patterns

    • Stress and burnout

    • Trauma and its impact on daily life

  • I'll be honest with you - I'm not a blank-slate therapist. I'm warm, I'm direct, and I'm genuinely invested in what happens in your life between sessions, not just during them. I'll challenge you when I think it matters, and I'll sit with you quietly when that's what you need.

    My approach draws from CBT, ACT & EFT — but more than any technique, I believe healing happens in the context of a real, trusting relationship. That's what I'm most committed to building with you.

    Therapy with me won't be about dwelling in what went wrong forever. We'll spend time understanding it - and then we'll figure out what to do about it.

  • I’m a South Carolina native, a wife, and a mom. I love spending time with family and friends, reading, traveling, jogging, 2006 playlists, true crime, and going to sleep by 9 p.m.
