I completed my Bachelor of Social Work at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and my Master of Social Work from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In addition, I completed a specialized HRSA funded traineeship in integrated behavioral health during my graduate program. I have experience working with diverse populations throughout the lifespan in non-profit and integrated healthcare settings. I am passionate about maternal mental health and working with children with behavioral issues, specifically ADHD, anxiety and depressive disorders. My therapeutic approach involves using holistic and strengths-based methods to encourage client self-determination.

I grew up in rural North Carolina in a small town called Willard. I am an introvert and love listening to music, practicing guitar, and reading during my alone time.
