I started Catalyst Counseling AVL after working 15 years in the field. I come from a mix of practices, clientele, & life experiences, including entrepreneurship, creative arts, world travel, and living life outside the lines. I excel in forming authentic connections, especially with those new to therapy. I provide a warm, inviting, & safe space to truly bring yourself to the table. Together we will develop creative solutions, stoke inspiration, and build pragmatic tools to live a life you truly love. I use nature and creativity as therapeutic conduits to unlock stagnant energy. I have experience & training in cognitive behavioral, creative expression, solution focused, & client centered approaches. I love to help my clients build self confidence, self advocacy, self awareness, and empowering positive perceptions to transform challenges into strengths. Creativity, connection, & comfort is the key! I offer Walk & Talk therapy. I am an ally to all, a guide in your journey, and most of all, a cheerleader for your success! Let’s chat about your options and how to get you back on your path to a life of balance & harmony!
