When I went through my own time of questioning God, I asked, “God, where are you? Do you care?” He lovingly answered, “Right here. I am the still small voice.”
I am passionate about children’s issues and women’s issues, and I also enjoy working with those who have addiction challenges and those who have been exposed to trauma. Facilitating healing is more than a job; it’s a ministry! For that reason, you can usually find me in the middle of a good Bible study. Since the Lord is our Good Shephard, it is important to spend time seeking Him and asking Him to direct our paths. I believe it is the purpose of the counselor to facilitate the quiet necessary for folks to hear the voice of God and respond to his guidance.
I am a military child who has lived everywhere from Washington state to Guam! After moving to Goldsboro in 2007, I worked in the teaching field for over 10 years. During the COVID pandemic, I transitioned out of teaching and started working for Liberty University in the Military Affairs Office. While working in this office, I was exposed to a multitude of veteran issues and developed extreme empathy for all they go through on a daily basis. I could not be more thankful for the brave men and women who serve our country!
In my free time, I enjoy board games, reading, and playing the piano. You can also find me playing with my two puppies or shopping at Burlington. 😊
I look forward to working with you!

In my life throughout times of sorrow or suffering, as well as peace and joy, I have seen God working through my circumstances for my good and for His glory - so I love incorporating biblical truths, scripture, and prayer in counseling sessions. In addition, I also utilize information and insights from Christian books that I read, as well as incorporating counseling theories such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy which emphasizes building a life based on your values.
I am a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist - Associate (LCAS-A), so I counsel individuals who are misusing substances or would like to improve their relationship with substances to improve their mental health and general well-being!
I also counsel individuals 15 years and older who are experiencing (but not limited to) depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, or trouble adjusting to changes in life. I also counsel individuals who desire to process previous experiences or want accountability in enacting long-term changes.
In my free time, I love sitting down with a book and a cup of coffee or being in the kitchen making something from scratch. I love to be active and in nature viewing what God created–I love going for hikes, kayaking, or going camping for the weekend.
The Bible provides us with examples of God redeeming His people for His glory, despite their shortcomings and failures. God has already authored our story and He has a plan to work through our circumstances for our good and for His glory
I look forward to hearing from you!
