About Me

I am currently credentialed as a licensed professional counselor in North Carolina (LPC-10217). I am also credentialed as a licensed clinical addiction specialist in North Carolina (LCAS-3266).  I hold a master’s of science degree in Rehabilitation Counseling and Psychology (psychiatric track) from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In addition I hold a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor certificate from Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor certification (CRC-00116838). I have been practicing counseling since October of 2013.

Counseling Background

Since the start of my counseling career (10/01/2013) I have been delivering psychotherapeutic services to individuals with severe and persistent mental illness (schizophrenia, Bi-polar, Schizoaffective). My services have included individual psychotherapy, as well as group psychotherapy. I have recently added master’s level psychological testing to my practice.  My theoretical orientation has been person-centered in its core, however, to create a therapeutic environment, which could facilitate a comprehensive service to each and every client, I implement interventions from cognitive behavior therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy.
