I believe in the power of being present. Through active-listening and trauma-informed care I strive to provide treatment that is individualized and client-centered. My main areas of focus include trauma (to include childhood trauma, military trauma, and sexual trauma), working through life transitions, military life stressors, and coping skills for depression, anxiety, and other mental health diagnoses. I have worked as a therapist for 14 years, and have served in many settings to include inpatient psychiatric, PHP/IOP, residential treatment centers, military behavioral health clinics, intensive in-home settings, and school settings.

I began my career in the addiction field managing a non-profit treatment center in Seattle, Washington, the area I was born and raised. I chose the field due to being a recovering alcoholic that knows what it feels like to be stuck in the depths of addiction and knew that helping others is the path to freedom. I moved to North Carolina in the spring of 2012, became a substance abuse counselor and continued working with those with addiction in recovery housing, IOP programs and residential treatment. I found myself in the business development field and feel like I have found my true calling being able to continue having personal and professional insight as a recovering person and clinician yet getting the opportunity every day to speak with people in need, their families and other’s in the field of addiction that need support to best help those in need.
“Charles and his team were all very supportive and understanding with the situation you are in. They gave clear and concise instructions from the initial evaluation until the completion of the course. Reaching out and making themselves available for any questions or concerns I had even after completing the course. They sent the completed class to the DMV and insured it was accepted and told me as much.
During a very stressful time the folks at New Hope were amazing putting my mind at ease!”
