Video Game Addiction Therapists in Hillsborough, NC
When we come to therapy, often our choices have not led to the life we desire. Under the influence of anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress, or the allure of substances, pornography, spending, etc., it can seem like life is out of our control. Rather than be controlled, we desperately want to be free to pursue what is truly good. Therapy then is an opportunity to not only find freedom from mental turmoil, but to realign life toward what is worth pursuing. The goal, then, is not simply to “not feel” a certain way, but to be drawn into something much greater that transforms our mind, our relationships, our work, our spirit.

Sometimes life is hard and you need help coping. Sometimes you get angry and you're not sure why or how to control it. Sometimes bad things happen and you can't get over it the way your friends and family expect you to. Maybe you don't really know what's going on, but you recognize that something isn't right. I want to help you figure out what isn't working in your life and get you to where you want to be.

Not accepting new clients
**Not Accepting New Clients Currently** I am highly experienced with those who find themselves stuck in unproductive or damaging patterns of thinking or actions and have been unable to move forward, even with other professional help. The feedback I receive from fellow providers and clients is that I have a high success rate of treatment and recovery. I believe that outpatient psychotherapy is a process of collaboration that provides a stable, supportive environment for achieving psychological wellness. Each of us are unique and the best expert on the stressors in our daily life.

Sometimes people feel unable to move on from things that have happened in their life, stuck in their moods, jobs, or unfulfilling relationships. I work from a primarily psychodynamic point of view to help clients better understand what might be getting in the way of living the life they want. I will value working collaboratively with you to facilitate the healing process. I have extensive experience working with children, college aged individuals, adults, veterans, and seniors with short and long term interventions.

I have extensive experience working with children, college aged individuals, adults, veterans, and seniors with short and long term interventions.
I help men of all ages work through social, romantic, family, and career challenges by improving their sense of meaning, knowledge, and self awareness during difficult times. Many of my clients suffer from mental health symptoms (general or social anxiety, depression, anger) that have negative effects on their self esteem and relationships. This creates a feedback loop that feels difficult to break, but is possible to overcome with the right environment, guidance, and an openness to change.

Every person I serve has a unique story. While some clients experience challenges in just one area, most experience difficulty multiple areas (mental health, trauma, loss, addiction), creating a complex, vicious cycle if not all parts are addressed. The circumstances that bring someone to therapy do not come in 'neat little packages.' I enjoy sorting out the pieces with each client, getting to the root of the issue, and offering a combination of evidence-based therapeutic interventions that help clients finally begin to experience relief, and start living a happier, more fulfilled life.

Do you find yourself engaging in emotional eating or caloric restriction? Are you in need of emotional support after terminating a pregnancy? Has something occurred that caused you to start anew? Do you need a supportive ear that will listen and allow you to express your thoughts and feelings? Are you seeking skills to help you cope with everyday issues? Asking for help can be scary, but trying to go it alone can be even scarier.

You're used to being smart enough to figure things out, but this thing has you stumped. Maybe you're spending more time than you'd like thinking about that thing in your past. Maybe your relationships keep failing in the same way and you're starting to think it might be you (or at least the people you seem to always choose). Maybe you feel like your friends are tired of listening to you vent. Maybe anxiety or sadness is keeping you from doing the things you want to do.

You may be going through a difficult time in your life right now. It may be dealing with a pressure-filled job, an unsatisfying relationship, or a difficult living situation. Perhaps you are dealing with anxiety and depression that have been going on for years. Maybe you've even tried counseling before, but did not find it to be very helpful (it seemed like mostly just having someone listen to you!). Now you are ready to move your life to the next level and try something different. This is where I step in.
