Terra: I received a bachelor's degree in psychology from The University of California at Berkeley in 1998 and a master of social work degree (MSW) with a clinical emphasis from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2014. I then went on to become a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). 

Between earning my bachelor's and masters degrees, I worked as a certified doula and childbirth educator, at a domestic violence and sexual assault agency in Raleigh, and at a residential facility that served as an incarceration alternative for women with young children.

After graduating from UNC, I worked as a therapist at Duke University Medical Center for 4 years.

In 2017 I decided to start a private practice, which I have been loving ever since.

In 2025 Talia will join the practice. Talia earned a bachelor's of social work from NCSU and went on to earn her MSW at UNC Chapel Hill. While at UNC she was trained in play therapy. She has 10 years of experience working with children and teens in various settings including grief camps for bereaved children and high school students navigating structural inequities.
