Therapists in Burlington, NC

If you’re here, you may be looking for someone who can support you and your family with warmth, authenticity, and unconditional acceptance. I value hearing people’s life stories and understanding the full context of their lives as part of the healing process. I have experience working with individuals across the lifespan, including community college students, and I particularly enjoy working with pregnancy/postpartum issues and parenting stress. I aim to provide compassionate and evidence-based care for life transitions, grief and pregnancy loss, pregnancy complications/NICU, infertility, and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders.

It is my passion to help people help themselves using a holistic approach to address the whole person. Sometimes we get so caught up in the details of life that we have difficulty seeing the big picture. Counseling can help you get more out of life, help you reach your goals and work through challenges and move forward to create and live the life you desire. Stress, anxiety, phobias, depression and life transitions are just some of the issues that I typically address within my practice.

Are you a parent or parent-to-be who feels like this is not what you thought it would be, and that there has to be a way to feel better? Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, issues related to pregnancy or parenting, self-esteem or relationship issues, I specialize in the unique issues of women. As a maternal metal health specialist, I am uniquely attuned to the challenges of parenting, pregnancy and fertility- including grief and loss as it relates to pregnancy and/or fertility. I have had extensive training to be able to offer help and comfort, and as a mom of 3, I have personal experience as well.

My services include working with individual, couples, family counseling with adults, and adolescents. I am LGBTQ+ affirming. My training is in the areas of anxiety and depressive disorders, relationship issues, trauma issues, women’s issues (infertility and postpartum), and developmental transitions. I use a therapeutic approach that reflects eclectic influences derived from my training in cognitive-behavioral, EMDR, person-centered, and family systems. I view problems as generally being developmental in nature, and approach each person, couple, or family in a unique fashion.

Hello! I am glad you are here. My goal is to provide a safe environment where you will feel understood, accepted, and also be able to reach attainable goals. I can help you safely process grief and trauma at your own pace, reframe those negative thoughts without shame and regain the skills to help connect and relearn how to be curious and kind to yourself.

Daytime & Late Afternoon Availability- Anxiety and depression can be exhausting. Your mind races, your body rarely relaxes, and your stomach is frequently in knots. You may even find yourself experiencing panic attacks or feeling trapped by the same unwanted thoughts and routines. You know that you want your life to be different, but you’re not sure what to do. All you know is these feelings are impacting your relationships with others. You aren’t the person that you want to be; and, you find yourself longing for a more meaningful life. After years of struggling, you’re finally ready for a change.

Greetings! I’ve studied a multitude of counseling approaches for individuals, marriage and family systems. With over 15 years as a mental health provider, I understand the importance of destigmatizing mental health, and embodying social justice practice by serving marginalized communities and families. Utilizing a collaborative, person centered treatment approach, I focus on developing healthy coping skills and providing psychoeducation on your personal difficulties. Additionally, I believe in creating a warm and attuned environment where you feel heard, accepted and valued.

Are you or your child in a confusing time that you just can’t quite figure out, or re-experiencing a traumatic event that continues to disrupt your life? With a decade of experience as a therapist working in a wide variety of settings, I use an integrated approach including CBT, EMDR, faith-based, psychodynamic and others to treat multiple issues including anxiety, relationship conflict, depression, spirituality and more. My specialty is in treating grief and loss, which can come from not only death and divorce/break-ups, but by estrangement, disappointment, loneliness and many other experiences in life.

If you’re here, you’re likely finding that something has been getting in the way of experiencing the sexual pleasure and/or relationship connection you want. Maybe it’s needing to integrate a new understanding of your sexual or gender orientation. Perhaps you’re not sure exactly what brings you pleasure or how to ask for what you want. Shame or past trauma has been preventing you from finding freedom. All of these dynamics can leave you feeling lonely and disconnected from yourself and your partner.

As a family systems therapist, I view clients from the perspective of their holistic environment. Together we will look at where you are coming from, and where you want to go. I work with clients between 13-80 experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, loss, trauma, relationship issues, marital conflict, family conflict, major life adjustments, adolescent issues, parenting issues, men’s issues, and more. I also work with couples and families to improve communication, process trauma, and enhance relationships. There is a soft spot in my heart for teens, young families, couples, men, and those who grieve.

As a Marine Corps veteran and spouse, and a parent, I understand life throws curve balls that we sometimes need help navigating. Counseling is a journey we take together as a team. I am committed to helping you improve your situation. I want the best for you. I want to help you obtain what you want to accomplish in counseling. I want to help you be happier and more satisfied with yourself and your life. Therapy is a process where you and I engage in conversation to help you resolve your problem/issue and move them forward. My job is not to fix you, but to guide you towards the goals you wish to achieve.

My passion lies in supporting people grappling with anxiety or depression, couples facing challenges, and overwhelmed or stressed adults. My clients come to me for relationship issues, anxiety, depression, inner child work, setting boundaries, life transitions, emotional regulation, shame, and codependency.

I work with individuals dealing with life transitions, medical related issues, mood and affective disorders, and marriage, parenting or family issues. I use a narrative and solution focused approach to collaboratively work with clients to identify successful solutions to problems and how these strengths can be implemented in future situations. I utilize empirically supported techniques that focus on the ways in which individuals think about and respond to events. These interventions allow clients to restructure their thinking, process events and modify behaviors in more adaptive ways.

Through great pain comes better awareness and understanding about ourselves and the world around us. My journey as a counselor began during my experience with war deployments, which inspired my search to find ways to help others who are hurting. After completing my Master's degrees in Couples and Family Counseling, I have worked extensively with the court system, with families in need, and with individuals of all ages. My other passion in life is speaking and learning more Spanish. I offer therapy sessions to adults, children, families, and couples. I am a certified hypnotherapist.
