About Me
Owner & Counselor
Practicing since 2013, I am interested in the intersections of mental health, sexual health, and spirituality. I believe in engaging others with compassion, curiosity, and respect both in my professional and personal life. I specialize in helping people develop emotional intelligence to create balance in personal living, social justice advocacy to promote community wellness, and sex affirming practices to help people embrace themselves and their relationships.
I began EWC to better address the needs of individuals, families, and communities through challenging stigma surrounding mental health, providing sexual information and support, and engaging in compassionate communication.
Research & Training
I obtained my Ph.D. in Counseling Education and Supervision from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. During my training, I learned to be committed to preparing multiculturally competent, ethical, clinically skilled, and knowledgeable professionals for positions as counselor educators in university settings or as clinicians and/or counselor supervisors in schools and community settings. I continue to strive to acquire knowledge, values, and skills that are relevant to providing quality services to diverse populations. I obtained my M.A. in education and community mental health from Malone University in 2013.
License & Credentials
I am currently licensed as a LCMHC in North Carolina and in Florida. I am a graduate of two CACREP programs and part of the National Board of Certified counselors which ensure the highest national standards for practice.
