I have worked as an individual and family therapist since 1996. I have spent 7 years working internationally in therapeutic boarding schools and 16 years in wilderness therapy as both a primary therapist and clinical director. While I have worked with a wide variety of clinical issues, I have an expertise in addiction, recovery and defiance. I see defiance as a great personal strength. Those who have had the greatest impact on our world did so through defiance. Defiance is truly a superpower.
My education includes a Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work from Mars Hill College, a Masters in Public Affairs as well as a Masters in Community Counseling, both from Western Carolina University.
I am a grandmother of four boys who I get to see every day. I love the outdoors, adventure and travel. I believe in challenging myself and those I work with to get outside our comfort zones to learn more about ourselves and our world. My favorite thing to do is anything I have never done before.
