Life is challenging, sometimes it can feel like we aren’t made for the pace that is asked of us in today’s world. The result can feel like disconnect, overwhelm, or even depression and anxiety. Therapy can help. It is clear to me in my work, and in my own life, that once we start paying attention to our pain, we can do something about it. Having a guide in that process can make it simpler and more effective. Everyone is unique and as individuals what we need can take time to uncover and incorporate into our daily lives.
I have been practicing as a therapist in the Asheville area since 2010 and have been an Addictions Specialist for the past six years. I believe in using evidence based approaches in my work, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I incorporate Internal Family Systems theory into trauma work.
You have the ability to understand yourself and heal, working with a therapist can facilitate positive growth in a way that respects your self-determination. I look forward to working with you!
