As someone who began experiencing anxiety at a young age, I remember how overwhelming it was not knowing what was happening or how to ask for the help I needed. Eventually, I got to a place where I better understood my anxiety and learned how to address it in healthy ways. I know the relief that comes from learning to cope with worries and fears, and I am passionate about teaching my clients evidence-based strategies that address their specific needs.

I enjoy helping others reclaim their lives and stop letting fears and doubts control them. It is so rewarding to see my clients remove anxiety-created obstacles, understand their true worth, and be present for what they value most. This is a wonderful reminder of how the courage to show up and do the hard work in therapy pays off in so many ways. I know it is not easy to face the things you fear, but the long-term relief is well worth it!

OCD is a particular area of interest and specialization in my practice. I have completed specialized training through the International OCD Foundation’s Behavior Therapy Training Institute (BTTI), with a focus on Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), an evidence-based treatment for OCD. I have extensive experience helping adults with OCD learn to respond differently to intrusive thoughts, uncertainty, and anxiety while reducing compulsions and avoidance that interfere with their lives.

I earned a Doctor of Clinical Psychology (PsyD) from Florida Institute of Technology in 2018. I am licensed in NC (5662) and FL (PY11693). I also practice telepsychology under the Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT), which allows me to conduct virtual sessions with clients in all PSYPACT states.

I am currently offering virtual sessions only.
