I am a North Carolina native and have lived in many different towns, cities, and municipalities across the state. I completed my Bachelors in Psychology from University of North Carolina - Greensboro in 2014. I then began my Masters program at Appalachian State University, and graduated in 2016. I hold a License in North Carolina for Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Addictions Counseling. My experience in mental health has varied over time. I have worked in Medication Assisted Treatment programs (MAT), community mental health, and private practice.
