About

Reclaiming hope, empowering recovery

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist, and Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist with 18 years of experience in the mental health field. I’ve worked in hospitals, treatment centers, schools, and in the outpatient setting. Currently, I only see adults. I specialize in complex trauma and addiction. I am LGBTQ+ celebratory and a member of WPATH (World Professional Association for Transgender Health). I support and affirm the Movement for Black Lives/BLM and Health at Every Size movements. I'm also a proud member of COVID-Conscious Therapists. Understanding intersectionality and systems of oppression helps guide my work. You are the expert on you. I’ll bring the clinical skills and together we can meet your goals. Life really can get better and the world needs you. I am a registered telehealth provider for North Carolina and Florida. **I can provide letters of support for gender-affirming care at no cost*** Notice to clients and prospective clients: Under the law, health care providers need to give clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service, or at any time during treatment. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, or how to dispute a bill, see your Estimate, or visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
