Attachment-based Therapists in Cornelius, NC

I believe children have an inherent ability to work toward growth and solve their problems. I strive to create a safe environment where clients can do this work, with the support of the counselor. My desire is for counseling to be a space where children can be authentically themselves and practice new behaviors and perspectives. I also utilize frequent collaboration with caregivers to introduce lasting change outside of the therapeutic environment.

SAFETY is NOT the removal of a threat! Feeling safe is dependent upon unique cues in the environment we are IN and relationships that PROMOTE and reciprocate feelings of trust, safety, connection and love. At the basic level, our bodies are geared for protection and defense. TRAUMA is an experience or event that overwhelms an individual's ability/capacity to cope/understand/make sense of what has occurred; essentially there are NO words! Your body reacts appropriately; fight, flight or shut down. These experiences shape how we perceive ourselves, the world, drives our behavior and impacts our ability to navigate life and find joy.
