Female Therapists in Lexington, NC

Are you looking to find more happiness in your life? I help my clients learn coping skills, improve communication, set boundaries for better self-care, increase self-worth, and find themselves again! We work through a variety of life issues, family/relationship issues, and symptoms from mental or substance abuse problems. It is my job to help you define your goals rather than make goals for you to help you obtain the life you are looking for. You are the expert on your life; I am just here to help you map out the journey and navigate the difficult roads.

Overall, I consider therapy to be a beginning point for personal change. My counseling philosophy is built around the principle that understanding a patient in the context of the surroundings that influenced their development is elemental to the therapeutic process. I utilize an integrative approach, combining Cognitive, Interpersonal, and Psychoanalytic techniques. My ultimate goal is to support my patients in achieving a higher degree of contentment and satisfaction as they work towards their desired therapeutic goals.

Accepting new clients! My primary therapeutic approach is Person-Centered, which is based on the notion that clients have a capacity for self-awareness. I believe that clients are capable of healing themselves, can create their own self-growth, & are their own change agents. I consider counseling to be a collaborative process with both the counselor and client. I align with taking an integrative approach because I do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach. In addition to person-centered, I utilize techniques from CBT. Every client has a different narrative and, therefore, should have a unique approach to each scenario.
