Do you struggle with anxiety that affects your day-to-day life? Do you feel overwhelmed by your relationship and worry that you’ll make the wrong decision? Have you had life changes that have been difficult to accept? Do you question if your anxiety will always impact your life? You’re not alone. While it can feel isolating, you’re not the only one experiencing anxiety and uncertainty. And, things can get better. I believe that anxiety doesn’t have to control your life or change your dreams. In therapy, I like to help clients learn healthy coping skills to decrease panic attacks and the impact of anxiety. I use mindfulness techniques (breathing skills), CBT skills, and narrative therapy to help my clients begin to understand why they struggle with anxiety. By doing therapy with me, you’ll be able to learn healthy coping skills to manage and explore anxiety, life changes, and relationship issues. You’ll have a space to process your experiences and work towards a better version of you. If you’re ready to take the next step, reach out today for free consultation!

I am is a Licensed Associate Professional Counselor (LAPC), a National Certified Counselor (NCC), and is currently working under the supervision of Teresa Woodruff, LPC, ATR-BC, CPCS. I obtained her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Wofford College and earned her Master’s in Education and Education Specialist degrees in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Clemson University. While earning my Master’s degree, I served as an intern at Converse College Wellness Center. This is where my passion for working with college-age students developed. I leverages the power of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and expressive arts techniques to help my clients achieve their goals. I believe in the importance of taking a person-centered approach to therapy and creating a climate for growth by being genuine and nonjudgmental. I have experience and enjoys helping individuals with anxiety, depression, poor self-esteem, family or relational issues, difficulty adjusting to life changes, grief, and trauma.

“To heal is to touch with love that which we previously touched with fear.” – Buddhist proverb As a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), I provide a holistic, evidence-informed approach to therapy, helping adults navigate OCD, trauma, anxiety, and relationship challenges with greater clarity and self-trust. I have specialized training in trauma and substance use counseling, and I am particularly passionate about supporting individuals managing OCD, including those experiencing intrusive thoughts and compulsive patterns that feel difficult to break. My work is strongly rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), supporting clients inbuilding psychological flexibility, reducing avoidance, and reconnecting with what matters most to them. I am also currently engaged in intensive training in Exposure and Response Prevention(ERP) to further strengthen my work with OCD. I tailor each session to the individual, integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and somatic approaches to address both the mental and physiological impacts of stress and trauma. As a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT), I incorporate mind–body awareness into therapy in a clinically grounded way, drawing from breathwork, nervous system regulation, present-moment attention. For clients interested in a more integrative approach, this can support deeper awareness and regulation without requiring prior experience in yoga or meditation. I place a strong emphasis on both insight and application, so our work goes beyond simply processing experiences. While there is always space for you to feel heard and supported, therapy with me is also focused on helping you build practical skills, deepen self-understanding, and create meaningful shifts in your day-to-day life. I approach therapy as a collaborative and supportive process, where you can feel both challenged and understood. Whether you are working through intrusive thoughts, healing from past experiences, navigating complex relationships, or seeking a stronger sense of alignment in your life, we will move at a pace that feels steady and sustainable. My goal is to help you build the skills, insight, and resilience needed to create meaningful, lasting change. Outside of the therapy room, you can usually find me spending time with my dog, Sebastian, deep in my sourdough era, cooking something new, or planning my next trip. I am also a big music lover and really value the small, grounding moments in everyday life.

Life can feel overwhelming when you are anxious, disconnected, navigating a transition, or unsure how to move forward. I believe therapy can be a supportive space for self-discovery, healing, and growth. My goal is to create a collaborative, nonjudgmental environment where you can better understand yourself, explore patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and move toward a life that feels more meaningful and aligned with your values. Therapy is not about having everything figured out before you begin. It is a place to start where you are, feel supported, and take meaningful steps toward the life you want to build. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic therapy and integrates DBT, ACT, person-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies. I take a holistic, culturally responsive view of therapy, recognizing how personal, relational, cultural, and social experiences shape mental health. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, self-esteem challenges, identity exploration, and personal growth. Reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable, and I aim to meet clients with warmth, curiosity, and respect as we work together toward insight, resilience, and meaningful change.

Students and young adults are often juggling a lot — classes, work, relationships, family pressure, big decisions, and trying to figure out who they are and what they want. You may feel anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or like everyone besides you somehow has it figured out. Therapy can be a place to sort through what’s going on, understand yourself a little better, and feel more confident in the direction you're headed.

You’ve taken a brave step in seeking support! I look forward to joining you on your journey of growth, discovery and healing. I am client-centered and use a cognitive behavioral framework with solution focused therapy to help you reach your goals.

Lately, you might feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve you—whether it’s anxiety, a painful relationship with food and your body, or the weight of living in a body that’s constantly in survival mode. You’ve learned how to keep going, but something still feels heavy or unfinished. You want to feel more at home in yourself—more grounded, more free. In our work together, we’ll slow down, listen to your nervous system, and gently untangle what’s been holding you back. My approach is holistic and person-centered, meaning therapy is always tailored to you- your story, your needs, and your goals. I draw from evidence-based approaches to meet your individual needs with compassion and flexibility. If you’re working through trauma or distressing life experiences, I offer EMDR to support deep, body-based healing. EMDR can be especially helpful when talk therapy alone hasn’t been enough to move through the stuck places. My practice is rooted in Health at Every Size (HAES), promoting body acceptance and self-compassion. If faith is important to you, I also offer Christian counseling to integrate your spiritual beliefs into the healing process. You deserve support that truly meets you where you are.

In life we often come to a point where what has been is no longer sustainable. We reach a point where we have to make changes for our wellbeing and/or happiness. We reach a crossroad, and must figure out which direction to take. In my work with clients I help them navigate this process. The work includes exploring options that are available or could be forged. It includes exploring the impact of change on existing relationships. It includes making space for all the feelings, both good and difficult, that come with considering something new. It also includes finally attending to pain or trauma from the past that could be clouding the process for you in the present. I place special emphasis on providing culturally informed care. This means I consider each person’s visible and invisible identities (ethnicity, race, religion, ability status, immigrant identity, sexual orientation, gender identity, and more), and makes room for all aspects of your experiences in the work we do together. Most of my clients hold intersecting marginalized identities. Most people who seek me out also tend to be first generation, immigrant, or a third culture kid. Having lived across 3 continents in my childhood and now belonging to a multiracial family, I am especially equiped to hold space for those who navigate culture and identity in their daily life. Including my predoctoral internship and postdoc years, I worked in university metntal health for 11 years before starting my private practice 2017. This gives me a unique understanding of the student (undergrad, grad, & professional) experience.
