EMDR Therapists in Parkton, NC

Are you worried, stressed or feeling stuck? My goal is to help women solve and/or cope with problems in their everyday lives. I have spent the last few years working with women concerning a range of issues. I as a wife, mother and business owner, I understand the everyday struggles faced by women and I am able to help. I offer a safe environment to allow us to explore any issues and concerns you may have and I help you develop the skills you need to learn to manage your concerns on your own.

It is my desire to help bring joy into your life, and live free from self-defeating thoughts and behaviors. If you are experiencing depression, anxiety, co-dependency, chemical dependency, childhood or adult trauma disorders, grief or loss; or are a couple struggling with communication, parenting, affair repair, or abuse, I would be honored to join you on path toward a healthier place.

Exploring the stuck places of your life with someone who is nonjudgmental and goal-focused can be a real game changer, moving you forward toward your hopes and dreams. I not only listen, but help you to solve problems. I am a psychotherapist working with individuals and families to reduce mood, relationship conflicts, and parenting concerns. We target specific goals of change and identify steps toward those goals. I use science-based interventions exploring past and current patterns that hold you back from making progress. Most of my clinical experience has been treating depression, anxiety, grief, bipolar, trauma, and PTSD.

Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, depressed or disconnected and wanting to make lasting change in your life and relationships? Feel like you have tried everything you know to do? Still nothing seems to work and you just want to feel better. I believe that many symptoms and problems are actually survival strategies that emerge from our need to cope with the hardships of life. These could be depression, shame, perfectionism and fear of rejection to name a few. My passion is helping people identify and understand their survival strategies and create new patterns that improve their lives and connection to self and others.

Are you in the place in your life where you just feel done? You feel alone. Every relationship ends in disaster and heartbreak. Whether it is a romantic relationship or a friendship you just seem to pick the wrong people. You often feel disposable and rejected because all the people you want end up leaving you. You hear about people that have found their people and you wonder when will it be your day. When will you find the right relationships that bring you the quality relationships you dream of having. You feel too weak and paralyzed to try again only to find more heartbreak.

Ever been afraid to ask for help because you're supposed to be the strong one, the smart one, or the successful one who has it all? Have you ever been surrounded by friends, family, and loved ones, yet you are all alone? Afraid to open your mouth because your culture, race, religion, or ideology of life says that doing so means you are speaking negatively over your life, therefore you're a complainer and miserable? Do you just want to get some things off your chest without fear of judgement ? Are you so overwhelmed with work or other obligations that you've lost or forgotten who you are?

Whether you are going through grief, healing from trauma, struggling with relationship issues or need assistance navigating life’s challenges and changes, I am here to help you achieve the clarity, confidence, and momentum necessary to get from where you are to where you want to be.

I am a very blunt therapist and will always lay out the process and what that looks like for each individual client. The intake can be very boring, as I ask many questions to gain an understanding of how I can help. I then make sure we have a mutual agreement when creating a plan for therapy that includes how we can recognize progress in therapy. I typically do not assign homework as I understand that there is not always time for homework with all of life's demands. I specialize in trauma and couples but have worked with many different diagnoses.

Life can be challenging at times and healthy coping skills are vital to being able to navigate through life and manage daily issues and problems effectively. Many people see seeking therapy as an admission of weakness. I believe that one of the bravest things someone can do is realize that they cannot face everything alone and to ask for help. Therapy doesn't have to be always a painful experience. If you want to achieve personal growth and healing, then it is time to call me for help. My ideal client is someone who is actively seeking to get healthy and willing to put in the effort necessary to try and accomplish it.

It is my pleasure to work with adolescents, adults, couples, veterans, and active-duty military, as well as with groups. I enjoy collaborating with people of diverse racial, spiritual, and cultural backgrounds who have experienced trauma either in childhood, adulthood, or through the military service and who are seeking a safe place to overcome life’s adversities, learn a new way to function, and live a victorious life. I work with issues related to ADHD, anger, anxiety, drug/alcohol use, panic, PTSD, personal growth, racial identity, self-esteem, sexual assault, stress, stressor-related disorders, and career development.

In this ever-changing and evolving world, we are all feeling some confusion, perhaps isolation, and a little anxiety in our lives. I see this in my clients’ lives and in my own. Therefore, I am dedicated to working with adults and teens in individual and couples counseling because I can empathize and help people learn new tools to live a healthier, more joyous life. Trauma, relationships, and even family can sometimes negatively affect us. I strive to empower people to become unstuck and move forward with more positivity and strategies to make great changes for themselves.

I believe that everyone may experience unfortunate circumstances during their lifetime. When this happens, we may need a helping hand in managing our difficulties. It takes a brave person to ask for assistance but this is the first step in the healing process. If you would like for me to be that helping hand, please contact me. I offer Tele-Counseling at various times in order to meet the busy schedules that many people have in their lives. Please feel free to email me and request an appointment.
