Therapists for Teens in Cherryville, NC

Accepting children (ages 5+), teen, and adult clients. Are you at a point in your life where something has to change but you just don’t know where to start? My goal is to help you find that starting point. I understand that many of us struggle with getting by on a day to day basis. High levels of stress can impact our mood, interactions with those close to us, even our performance at work or school. Allow me to aid you in managing the stress that you experience.

I am passionate about working with children, adolescents, and their families. I specialize in play therapy and solution focused therapy. I look forward to helping you or your child work through the every day struggles and sometimes overwhelming struggles of everyday life. I approach counseling from a holistic perspective and feel the child will benefit more from counseling if the family unit is healthy. This is why I invite the family to be a part of therapy and work to make the family a healthy place for the child/teen to grow and mature.

Everyone has a story. . . of joy and sorrow, love and sadness, wounds and healing. Everyone's story is sacred and waiting to be discovered. But often we struggle to read our story because of depression, anxiety, past pains, or relational difficulties. My vision is to enable people to experience God's powerful grace in order to live in true freedom, transformation and discovery. I provide a pathway for people struggling on the journey to find hope for their broken hearts, healing for their wounds, and a hiding place to wrestle with the grace of God.

So, you are here, which means you are looking for a therapist or counselor that can actually help you. You have been struggling with your symptoms for so long that you don’t want to risk picking someone that is not going to understand you, much less help you find the relief you’ve wanted. Whether you are looking for mental peace, motivation to resume being you, relief from the negative thoughts and images in your mind, the feeling of being present in your life, healing or growth in your relationships, or success in your weight loss journey, I can help you!

The events that happen are not intended to be permanent, but instead are part of our journey. It is our story being written and we have the ability to choose the next chapter. The path of life can have difficult times, often with unexpected twists and turns. When this occurs, it can be beneficial to have someone walk with you through the challenging times. My clients are motivated to write their own story, to have someone support them but to work towards empowerment, self-confidence, internal peace, and ultimate healing. My clients know their past does not define them but instead empower them to be the best they can be!

I am a Christian Counselor and recognize that people come to counseling for a variety of reasons including personal problems, relationship struggles, spiritual issues, and addictions. I want to hear your story and walk with you towards healing and hope. An important part of this process is developing a relationship of trust and safety. I am committed to providing professional care and counsel that is marked by compassion and is free from judgment.

I love being a biblical counselor because I love seeing God bring hope and change into the tender and difficult places of our relationships, emotions, and pains of life. It is such a privilege to be invited into the lives of my clients. I see clients with marital, parenting, and other relationship struggles. I see them as they are coping with trauma, grief, and the usual transitions and struggles of life. I see them as they engage with anxiety, depression, or the weight of guilt and shame. I would be thrilled to join you, for a time, along your path.

Have you been feeling depressed, anxious, stressed out, or just can't seem to see situations getting better for you? Or have you experienced any trauma or abuse currently, during childhood or adolescence? Are you experiencing grief? I am so glad that you have decided to reach out for support. Engaging in therapy will help you receive support through professional counseling. As a professional counselor, I have been trained and prepared to assist with situations preventing you from getting the most out of your life.

I am currently accepting new clients in-person and virtually. I provide individual therapy to adolescents and adults (12+). I have experience working with people experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma informed care, life transition, women’s issues, LGBTQIA+, and more. I believe in a strong foundation of building trust with clients, the value of culture, and that the client is the expert of their life. I believe in a working partnership, with you as the leader, in order to best meet your counseling goals!

I ascribe to several theories such as Person Centered Counseling, CBT, and Existential Theory. My areas of expertise include working with children, adolescents, and their families as well as young adults focusing on a wide array of issues including grief, depression, anxiety, anger, stress, ADHD in both children and adults with both males and females, Autism, adjustment issues, and trauma. I utilize varied techniques to reach out to each client individually in a unique way.

Life is a journey that is cultivated by various experiences that may put you in a place facing depression, anxiety and other forms of mental illness that may seem to be unbearable. My approach to counseling is driven by a strength based perspective. I look forward to assisting you through emotional processing by tapping into your personal inner strength of resilience to carry you through this journey which is most often referred to as life itself.

I look forward to assisting you with developing the skills to live a more abundant life while implementing the tools that you already have! Life can be hard at times and with the right coping skills, life can be more manageable to those experiencing depression, grief, anxiety, substance use, and other mental health issues. Working with those who have experienced relationship issues, such as infidelity, abuse (domestic, verbal and/ or physical) can learn how to become a survivor instead of a victim. I know that building a healthy therapeutic relationship is the first step in the therapy process in a non-judgmental environment.
