As a member of the LGBTQ+ community and a person of faith, I bring a unique perspective to my work as a therapist. My own experiences with anxiety, depression, trauma, and loss have deepened my empathy and understanding of how profoundly life’s challenges can shape us. I believe in the power of healing, growth, and rebuilding — and I’m passionate about helping others rediscover their strength and sense of purpose.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina with more than 20 years of experience. My goal is to create a therapeutic experience that feels genuine, caring, and safe. I’m passionate about working with adolescents and adults as they navigate life’s challenges and discover new ways to grow and heal. Please note that I provide therapy services, but not psychological assessments.
I use a compassionate, client-centered approach that blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness to help clients heal, gain clarity, and build resilience. Together, we focus on self-worth, emotional growth, and practical tools for creating balance and lasting change.
I offer insight into both everyday challenges and major life events that can disrupt your sense of balance. I have worked with older adults and clients facing depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, life transitions, and domestic violence. My role is simply to help you uncover your strength and overcome life’s challenges.

As a Black woman clinical mental health counselor and community care provider, I create space with clients, especially those carrying the weight of relational and systemic stress, to explore their emotions, challenge harmful thoughts, reconnect with their bodies, and build lives rooted in dignity and collective care.
I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor associate (LCMHCA) with 9 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I work with concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, substance use, grief, identity development, and relational challenges. I value working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and recognize how intersecting identities and systemic factors can influence wellness.
I hold a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from North Carolina A&T State University. My approach is integrated and trauma-informed, drawing from person-centered therapy, emotion-focused therapy, and relational-cultural theory. I also incorporate cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavioral, expressive arts, and somatic techniques.
Therapy is a collaborative space where you can explore emotions, build self-awareness, and move toward meaningful change. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you feel seen and understood. If you are ready to begin or continue your wellness journey, I invite you to schedule a session.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Panic attack disorder therapy is a specialized therapeutic approach designed to help individuals suffering from recurrent and debilitating panic attacks. During therapy sessions, individuals work closely with trained Thriveworks Greensboro therapists to identify and understand the triggers and thought patterns that contribute to their panic attacks. Through panic attack disorder therapy, individuals learn to manage their anxiety, develop coping strategies, and regain control over their lives, ultimately leading to a reduction in the severity of panic attacks.
Panic attack disorder therapy often utilizes cognitive-behavioral techniques like exposure therapy and relaxation exercises to help individuals manage and mitigate panic attacks. These methods involve desensitizing triggers, reducing physical and emotional symptoms, and challenging irrational thought patterns to empower individuals to recognize, control, and reduce the frequency and intensity of panic attacks.
Panic attack disorder therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and through Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Panic attack disorder therapy may last for a variable amount of time, depending on the individual’s unique needs.
The symptoms of panic attacks and panic disorder can be very distressing and frightening, especially as they are often completely unexpected and develop abruptly. Panic attacks can strike while shopping, walking down the street, driving or even relaxing at home.

Panic attacks peak after 10 minutes and last between 5 and 20 minutes, but can last longer in some cases. The frequency with which panic attacks occur varies from person to person: from one or two attacks a month to several times a week. According to the DSM 5, symptoms of panic attacks are:
It is due to the intensity of these symptoms – particularly the feelings of fear and terror – that many people with panic disorder are unable to relax between attacks. Panic disorder develops if, alongside repeated panic attacks, one or both of the following symptoms are present:
