I specializes in Child and Family well being.
My ideal patient does not exist, I truly believe anyone willing to show up to do the work, trust themselves, and build on every session is ideal because that is the most important part of the therapy process. I also believe that one of the foundational pieces of therapy is transparency. I try to remember everyone is on a different path, and their own pace concerning how they choose to express themselves. I'm known for my kindness, relatability, and willingness to adapt to my patient's needs as necessary. I take great pride in creating a safe space where patients can feel comfortable and vulnerable when working with me.

It is frustrating to have tried everything, yet continue to feel in pain, sad, hopeless, stuck in the past, and worrying about the future, yourself, and your relationships. Stress, past trauma, chronic physical & mental illness can make you feel that way, affecting your quality of life (QOL). Imagine though a life where you get a boost of energy and motivation, quiet negative self-talk, cope better with stress, manage physical and emotional pain, build confidence, feel less worried, self-conscious and withdrawn, regain hope and pleasure in things you used to enjoy, live a healthier life style, and accomplish meaningful life goals.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Greensboro, NC provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Greensboro build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
