Even in dark times, we cannot relinquish the things that make us human.

Strong is fighting. It’s hard, and it’s painful, and it’s every day. It’s what we have to do. And we can do it together.

If you’ve ever felt a little awkward, a bit anxious, or totally overwhelmed–or proudly claim your nerd or geek status– you’ve found someone who gets you. Overlooked? Struggling to connect with others? Feeling lonely in a crowded room? Maybe the room is frozen or on fire. Therapy can feel like a lot, especially if you're new to it. Together, we’ll unpack what’s holding you back and explore real, practical tools to help you grow and heal at your own pace. You don’t have to figure it all out alone. Let’s take that first step together. Your healing is within reach!

I specialize in working with Millennials and Gen-Zers who are navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, self-esteem struggles, life transitions, and more. My goal is to create a safe, honest, and affirming space for ALL–from fellow nerds and geeks like me to those from marginalized backgrounds, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ communities. I’m here to meet you where you are and make the process as comfortable as possible- we may even have a little fun along the way.

Therapy works best as a collaboration, because you are the expert of your life. You lead the way, and I’ll be here to support you. Using a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing, I tailor our sessions to fit your unique needs and quirks. Reach out today! You deserve to prioritize yourself and your self-love.

My Experience

I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (LCMHCA) with a background in Sociology from UNC Charlotte and a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Lenoir-Rhyne University. My career has led me through diverse settings, including MAT clinics and private practices, where I've supported individuals facing a wide array of challenges. I specialize in helping adults deal with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship struggles, and emotional overwhelm.

When I’m not in therapist mode I’m…

playing video games, binge-watching my favorite shows, enjoying a good movie, or drawing. I LOVE connecting with clients who share a passion for all things creative and nerdy!
