At In Pursuit Of Progress Therapy, we envision the therapeutic process as: the unfolding of one’s story in connection with an entrusted professional; often with the desire to come to know oneself on a deeper level and/or to empower a person to make vital shifts in alignment with personal growth and self-acceptance There is something to be said of the fact that change happens when the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of change. However, while our stories will undoubtedly include painful periods of grief, disillusionment, anguish and anxiety, the complex journey that is the human experience is made up of so much more than those difficult moments. Joy, elation, curiosity and wonder are also feelings that we may observe needing just as much help to navigate. Sparks of inspiration such as exploring core beliefs, building upon prior self-discovery or learning to create a sense of safety within can also be precursors to seeking therapy. In other words, each person’s journey is their own. Our practice’s story is built around meeting the needs of our clients. Your story is yours to tell. And it is your [courageous] choice to take that vulnerable first step towards finding someone you can begin to build trust with and open up to.

Do you find yourself stressed and overwhelmed with ruminating thoughts, no matter what you do? You’re a perfectionist who’s always striving to be perfect, saying ‘yes’ to everyone but yourself. The self-criticism never seems to stop, and the fear of failing keeps you stuck. Maybe you don’t even remember a time when things felt different—but you do know one thing: you’re ready for relief. You’re ready to quiet the self-doubt and take back control of your thoughts. You want to understand yourself on a deeper level, find joy in the present, and start living life for you—not just for others. Let’s work together to make that happen. I help clients build self-compassion, confidence, and lasting change. If you're struggling with self-doubt, anxiety, or feeling stuck, we’ll work together to strengthen your coping skills and deepen your self-understanding. I’ll show up as a real person—supportive, honest, and ready to challenge you when needed—because your growth truly matters. You don’t have to navigate this alone. I see how exhausting it is to battle self-doubt and anxiety every day. Together, we can create a path toward relief, confidence, and joy. If you're ready for a new way forward, I invite you to reach out by email or phone call. Let’s take the first step toward healing—one that feels right for you.

Trauma can be an invisible wound that can affect many parts of our lives we don’t even realize. I work with clients with depression, anxiety, adoption triad concerns, and trauma-related issues. Change can be hard. Having the courage to reach out and discuss your inner pain and anxiety is the first step. I want to help you work through your past painful experiences, feelings of shame, and traumatic events so that you can create a new life path. I believe each person has their own pace, and am willing to find therapies and strategies that work for you. My approach is open-minded, trauma-based, cognitive, and holistic. I started my career in psychology and counseling when I experienced a suicide in my family. It gave me the courage to make changes for myself, and help people around me who were also suffering grief, loss, and depression. I’m an advocate of mental health issues, a proud adoptee, and a supporter of the arts. **I only accept insurance in the state of North Carolina**

I practice what is called Person-Centered Therapy, meaning it is adapted to you and your needs. I work by the belief that true growth and change comes not just from techniques or plans, but from our relationships with each other. Using a Person-Centered approach, I look to help each person identify and use their own strengths, interests and existing supports to create the positive and healthy life for themselves that they envision. I incorporate professional and personal experiences and interests to create a relationship with clients that will foster trust and communication.

YOUR FEELINGS MATTER. YOU MATTER. It’s time to learn new ways of thinking about and tackling challenging life moments to be happy. Sometimes all you need is to shift your perspective on your current circumstances to achieve the level of happiness you so desire. We can help you do this as licensed therapists with lived experiences of being women of color (WOC). You deserve a culturally competent therapist educated on the nuances of being a woman of color. There's no need to code-switch or hide parts of yourself from us. At KQH, you will get the real experience of putting it all on the table for an unbiased third party to help you work through life challenges. We help you keep your crown on straight by utilizing a combination of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), mindfulness practices, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), and Solution-Focused Therapy. Our clinicians meet clients where they are and help them develop attainable goals. We help clients better understand how their thoughts influence emotions before introducing new coping strategies to manage their symptoms and change thought patterns. We are here to help you live your best possible life!
