About me
I have been working in human services for the past 30 years and 8 years of counseling in a variety of different settings. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including trauma, depression, and anxiety. At Carolinas Depression Clinic we specialize in Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), a non-evasive treatment for depression and OCD. Ask us about this treatment.
I have a Bachelors in Economics and a Masters in Mental Health Counseling. I am licensed by the state of North Carolina as a Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and as a Clinical Addiction Specialist (LCAS). I am also a Nationally Certified Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and I belong to the American Counseling Association, The National Board of Certified Counselors and the National Association for Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Counselors (NAADAC). I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs within these evidenced based therapeutic models. These models have demonstrated efficacy in producing positive outcomes for persons that are predisposed to a myriad of disorders including:
- Stress,
- Anxiety,
- Depression,
- Major life adjustments and
- Addiction
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
