My counseling is rooted in my experience with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT); however, I take an integrative lens by merging techniques and ideas from other therapies that best suit my individual client's needs. I incorporate motivational interviewing and solution-focused therapies. I have found that counseling is most effective when it is driven by the client. I believe that you are the expert on you; and thus, treatment should be structured and adjusted to meet your individual needs. Since I view counseling as a partnership that requires flexibility and commitment from both client and counselor, I invite and encourage feedback from clients throughout the counseling process.
Prior to joining Full Circle, I worked with clients at Swain Recovery, a residential substance abuse treatment facility in Black Mountain. Following Swain Recover my focus was with clients at Tapestry, a residential and outpatient eating disorder treatment facility. My work within these organizations provided experience in treating substance use and eating disorders specifically. I’ve worked with a broad range of ages and backgrounds, and enjoy helping clients work through the processing of life events and with struggles that are singular or have co-occurring diagnoses. Along with substance use and eating disorders, I have worked with clients experiencing PTSD, anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, and more. I enjoy working with clients in the LGBTQA+ community. I aim to provide an inclusive space where clients feel welcome regardless of their culture, background, or identity.
I look forward to connecting with you and learning how I can help you heal, become the person you want to be, create positive patterns, and offer support on your journey.
