While our work together is always centered on you, many clients appreciate knowing a little about the person sitting across from them. If you're curious, I've long been drawn to understanding people’s stories. Becoming a therapist feels deeply aligned with who I am and it’s a privilege to walk alongside clients as they cultivate greater self-understanding and belonging within themselves.

Living in Asheville my entire life, I bring half a decade of experience in the local mental health field. My background includes work in substance use treatment, college settings, and residential centers.
I earned my M.A. in Counseling from Lenoir-Rhyne University’s Asheville campus.

Outside the therapy room, I enjoy performing in live theatre!
What I love most about acting is how it deepens my appreciation for the complexity of human experience. The stories we both inherit and create can shape how we understand ourselves and the world around us.
This perspective informs my clinical work, where I help clients explore recurring patterns, clarify their values, and, when helpful, rewrite narratives that no longer support the life they want to live.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (A20935), practicing under the supervision of Audrey Morris, LCMHCS (144469). I take a trauma-informed approach aims to be culturally humble, neurodiversity-affirming, LGBTQIA+ supporting, anti-racist, body-neutral, and welcoming of diverse identities and relationships.
