I have lived in North Carolina most of my adult life except for a short time in Washington State where I graduated from The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology. I have worked as a therapist for twelve years;  assisting families in healing damaged relationships, attending to symptoms of trauma, anxiety and depression, while honoring each individual's life story. I am experienced in evidenced based practices and offer faith-based counseling if desired. I believe that every new day brings a fresh opportunity to experience dignity, love and personal peace.
