About

We listen, act, and transform

Perhaps you have an idea of what you are capable of, but have lacked the opportunity to refine those parts of yourself. How do you get to where you'd prefer and enhance positive emotions and confidence along the way? Who will support your change? Allow me to join you on your journey of self-discovery. As a seasoned counselor, I would like to support you in exploring barriers that can get in the way of self-esteem, confidence, persistence and self-integrity. Let's find that solid foundation! I am a licensed mental health clinician in both NC and MD. And an Advanced Licensed Addictions Specialist in NC. Sessions begin and end with your goals. I will provide the expertise on tools/techniques for progress, inner peace and well being. Basics include: stress/anger/trauma management, self-care and control, acceptance, communication, mood management, healthy coping-life. These are skills that become part of a practice, your practice, to hone and role model for others throughout your lifetime. Whomever you are, whatever you look like; whatever you have experienced; Your session time is your welcoming, calming, confidential, no-judgement zone, where you learn to experiment with the way you prefer to be- without angst; learning to listen to your heart, mind, body and soul with trust and adjust/shift in ways that decrease discomfort/suffering. Thank you for considering me to be on your team. Welcome!
