          "Life is full of twists and turns, often unexpected and challenging to even the most seasoned navigator. Individual, couple, and family therapy can provide relief to those seeking support by regrouping, learning coping skills and gaining helpful insight to promote empowered change. It is my honor to help individuals, couples, and families who are seeking help to either heal, learn new ways to manage their lives or adjust to new challenges. I have extensive experience in the fields of anxiety/depression/PTSD, adjustment, illness, grief, sudden loss, marriage, post-partum depression, blended family, parenting, and addiction. My practice encompasses adolescents to the young at heart.


          My education, training, professional experiences allow me to not only meet clients where they are, but also help them develop goals suitable to their needs.


          I believe that the spectrum of "normal" is wide and often varies throughout the seasons of our lives, but often we may feel overwhelmed, anxious, fearful, or depressed. My practice is focused on hope and healing, helping you to find your 'normal' again. I am now accepting insurance clients at the Mooresville location."

I am here to assist you by treating you as a whole person. The mind, body, spirit, and environment influence total personal wellness.

          I have a broad scope of trained experience as well as unique learning/training experiences from some of the best. I use a variety of techniques, but the common factor is that I use what has been shown to work. If you are experiencing life challenges like mood changes, self-criticism, depression, anxiety, relationship problems, and more I would love to earn your trust and show you meaning behind the name Integrative Wellness Solutions and how we will show our efforts in your journey. Counseling is also an opportunity to Maximize and not just get back to a "regular day".


          I work from an eclectic approach to counseling tailored to each client based on the client's needs. In couples counseling, my work is a concept that is weighted heavily on effort made in the present rather than attempting to reshape past waves of a relationship.


          The counseling experience I provide is centered on my ability to connect and validate while also helping you decide how you want to refocus your efforts.

          I enjoy working with a wide range of individuals and needs. My greatest interest and passion is in working with couples/families and with grief. I also provide general counseling and have a background in trauma. Most especially I work with people who struggle to have safety to express their most vulnerable feelings. There are three things I help each client learn to improve the quality of their life and relationships: healthy and assertive communication skills, healthy boundaries, and knowledge about grief and how to identify the need to grieve.


          I provide a safe place to fully express any thoughts or feelings. Also, I help guide people through understanding such feelings and their history. Together I partner with clients to build skills to cope with and change such an emotional struggle.


          If you're not okay, there's nothing weak or wrong about that. There's nothing weak or wrong about wanting some help to get through tough times. If you are unsure if counseling would work for you, please call (leave name and number if I'm unavailable and I'll call you back) or e-mail and I will be happy to talk and see if I can help you.

          People of all ages and stages experience life changing events that bring about emotional struggles, grief and loss and other challenges. Adults may find themselves questioning and asking "Who am I now?" and "Where do I go from here?". Children, preteens and teens may find themselves navigating through new emotions and experiences as they grow and change. The need to explore and understand these new landscapes is critical to making positive and sometimes difficult decisions regarding self expression and life choices. Overall goals often included finding relief of inner conflict, developing confidence and experiencing growth.

          As a LCMHC and Registered Play Therapist, I have 20 years of experience working with clients from the existential philosophy and utilizing Person Centered and Mindful and Cognitive Behavioral theories. As a certified yoga teacher, I believe in the body/mind/spirit connection and share active techniques to reduce anxiety and promote healing from the inside.

          At times, we all desire a safe space to explore and challenge ourselves. I work with adults and children to examine thoughts and feelings, provide support through exploration and help develop ways to carry out personal growth and change. If you find yourself or your child experiencing a life transition, I encourage you to reach out for hope.
