Female Therapists in Boone, NC

Accepting New clients At this Time. Located near king street and right by an appalCART stop! Offering Telehealth and in person sessions I treat adolescences and adults. I am passionate about working with clients and meeting you where you are at. You want to work on yourself and become more comfortable and confident and I want to be here helping you achieve all your goals!

I come from a strengths-based, solution-focused, somatic perspective, using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and a wee bit of humor, when appropriate, to help you find new ways of thinking that get you nearer to who and how you want to be. I am a big believer that you already have everything you need within you, we just need to figure out how to reorganize what you already know to be true.

Join me in learning the tools and skills to intentionally create the life that you desire. I work with clients who are looking to strengthen trust in themselves. My overarching goal for every client who comes to see me is for them to have a more loving, compassionate relationship to themselves, others, and their past. I use a holistic collaborative approach to counseling that recognizes our unique multidimensional nature, and honors the connection between mind, emotions, energy, and body. I specialize in Brainspotting, Parts work/IFS, and Gottman Method for couples, .

My goal is to create a safe and non-judgmental environment where clients are able to explore issues and improve the quality of their lives. I use an integrative style of psychotherapy that pulls from many different approaches with an emphasis on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My work with clients is based on a collaborative approach that promotes a strong alliance and allows for open and honest communication. Within this foundation, clients develop the safety and freedom to challenge behaviors and beliefs and discover new attitudes that promote change.

I believe there is no true beginning or end to Healing, working on ourselves, or trying to have forward motion in our lives (but that it DOES get better!), so any entry point into counseling as a tool in those processes is the right one. /"This is heart work, and you can't think your way around this; you've gotta feel your way through it." / /"The soul always knows what to do to heal itself. The challenge is to silence the mind."/

Hello, I have been working in therapy, or mental health and addictions recovery, for the past 20 years. I enjoy working with adults who are going through a transition, change, need extra support, or are dealing with on-going struggles. Some areas I specialize in include managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, anger, bi-polar, past trauma, parenting struggles, pregnancy and postpartum mood disorders, relationship issues, coping with a loved one's mental health or addiction, and addictions recovery.

Trauma is often at the root of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. It can dysregulate our nervous systems and keep us stuck in 'survival mode.' The same coping strategies that once protected us are now disrupting our relationships and everyday lives. The good news is that our minds and bodies want to heal. We just need to learn how to integrate ourselves and our experiences into a new, more mindful, and compassionate way so that the past is not always in the driver's seat. It is said “what you resist, persists”. I believe the practice of coming to know ourselves fully can be very powerful.

I am committed to enhancing the emotional and spiritual growth of people, individually and in relationships. The purpose of my counseling is to help people overcome the hindrances that keep them from reaching their potential to be fully loving and responsible - towards themselves, in relationship to other people, and in their spiritual journey.

If you have ever found yourself agonizing over a text message for hours or redoing your to-do list a million times (because it wasn’t just right), we’re probably a match made in therapy heaven! I specialize in working with girlies like you, who are caught in the perfectionism and overthinking whirlwind. You know, the ones who have ten different planners, three different highlighter colors, and a love-hate relationship with Pinterest-level expectations. Oh, and if you’re an overwhelmed mom trying to keep it all together, you’re in the right place too!

*Wait list only* I enjoy working with and supporting individuals who are curious and motivated to move through the "stuck places" we all find ourselves in from time to time. I believe that our bodies have an inherent wisdom that, when listened to through mindfulness, will help direct and focus the therapy. I enjoy working with a wide variety of clients and presenting issues including anxiety, depression, relationship/personal growth challenges, as well as people dealing with unresolved overwhelming experiences. I find great joy in walking with people on their journeys towards a more authentic, vibrant self...your own "True North"!

Now accepting new clients! Welcome, and congratulations on taking the first step to attending therapy! Are you a college student or young professional experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, major life changes, or relationship concerns? If so, my passion is providing you with a safe and authentic space where you can feel supported. I believe that therapy doesn't have to be scary. Together we will break down barriers that are preventing you from living your ideal life, and we will likely share a few laughs along the way :)

Although we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can move toward greater self understanding and more fulfilling relationships in the present. I engage with you based on a relationship of two people coming together as equals within the safety of the therapeutic container. My focus is on interpersonal relationship, however, I include art, music, movement, play, and guided imagery as another means to connect with each other and to free the imagination for self discovery.

Perhaps the joy of life seems just out of reach and you are moving further from the person you want to be. There is hope. We are all capable of positive change, of finding joy, and of becoming the person we want to be. Some seasons in life, we just need a little help getting there. Whether you're experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or you have a painful past, there is a way forward. I want to help you take steps toward building the future you want and reviving your full self. Emotional wellness, healthy relationships, and healing can be yours.

Modern life is full of challenges and uncertainty, and everyone struggles at times. It’s OK to ask for help when things feel difficult, whether it’s dealing with hopelessness or overwhelm, or not feeling close to the people around you. Perhaps past traumas have led to your feeling disconnected or "not good enough," and managing your emotions feels nearly impossible. You are not alone. Finding the right support is an important step on your mental health journey, and I am here to help you work through the obstacles that are keeping you from living the life you want.

Now accepting new clients. I believe we each possess the resources necessary to meet the challenges we are presented in life. Resources are those things, actions, qualities, faculties, and relationships we can draw upon for aid in times of need. Through a mutual relationship built on trust and transparency, we will explore where you are now, where you want to go, and how you might get there.

My counseling style is a compassionate, cognitive-behavioral approach to problem-solving and self-discovery. I believe therapy is a dynamic process that involves active engagement for both the therapist and the client. My goal is to provide a nonjudgmental atmosphere for you to share your life, relationships, and concerns. Honesty on your part will help me understand your thoughts, feelings, and concerns.

42 Years of experience working with men and women in a safe and caring environment. Specialties include anxiety, addiction, grief, codependency and recovery issues. I also work with individuals who are experiencing a period of transition including divorce, career change or other significant life change. I have a strong background and certifications in the fitness industry as well and believe strongly in the mind/body experience in relation to the concept of holistic wellness. In person and remote counseling available. I am licensed in North Carolina, Florida and California.

I invite you to utilize my over 30 years of mental health/addictions education and experience, empowering you with highly effective and enduring therapy, resolving long term and recent issues that block your happiness and success. Adults, youths, couples and whole families are carefully taught needed skills and facilitated actual healing processes, step by step, to remedy thought distortions, repressed feelings and dysfunctional behaviors and attitudes that impair your relationships, socialization, work or school success. Treatment is customized in consideration of individual schedules, preferences, strengths, obstacles and goals for lasting growth and change. Christian counseling is available upon request.

If college is the best four years of your life, then why do you feel like this? Stressed and alone. Surrounded by people, but struggling to connect. Wanting love, but tired of the games and swiping. Scared of the real world, and still stuck with that vape habit and yoyo diet from high school. Or maybe you were so excited for parenthood, but not for this. This is so loud and hard and nothing like the pictures online. Life transitions - my favorites being college and parenthood - can shake you up and reveal cracks you never knew were there, but they can also shake you loose from your old habits so you can grow.
