Support for Adults Navigating Anxiety, Chronic Illness, and Overthinking

When I’m not in therapist mode, I’m…
I’m usually writing, watching movies or TV shows, playing video games, listening to music, or spending time with my dog, Penny. I love creative worlds and thoughtful stories, and I enjoy working with clients who process life through imagination, reflection, or curiosity.

When your mind won’t slow down, looping, spiraling, replaying conversations, or jumping to worst‑case scenarios, it can feel impossible to slow down. You might look put‑together on the outside while quietly battling anxiety, chronic illness, or the kind of exhaustion that makes even simple tasks feel overwhelming. I help adults understand their patterns, calm their nervous system, and build tools that actually match their energy and capacity.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, chronic illness, looping thoughts, and emotional overload. Many of my clients are high‑functioning but exhausted, motivated but stuck, thoughtful but overwhelmed by their own mind. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in practical strategies that help you feel more regulated and steady day‑to‑day.

As an LGBTQIA+‑affirming and COVID‑conscious therapist, I offer a space where your boundaries, needs, and lived experiences are respected. You don’t have to push through alone. Together, we’ll slow things down, understand what’s underneath your overwhelm, and build routines that support your mind and body.

My Experience
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate in North Carolina and a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate in South Carolina. I’ve supported adults in community clinics and private practice settings, with a focus on anxiety, chronic illness, neurodivergence, emotional regulation, and the long‑term impacts of stress.
