Cigna and Evernorth Therapists in Raleigh, NC

Accepting New Clients - I believe we all possess an innate wisdom that allows us to live in a state of flow, safety and healthy relationships. Life challenges, trauma, loss, and stressful transitions can often dampen our flow, showing up as anxious thoughts, panic attacks, depressed mood, or feeling unsafe or alone. During these seasons, we may feel highly activated or impulsive, or alternately listless, numb, or disconnected from ourselves and others. Sometimes reaching out for support during such moments feels immensely difficult, and yet I believe the power of connection can help return us to our inherent wisdom and flow.

I consider my role as therapist to be one of the most sacred parts of my life. Not because of my own effort, but because of the beauty inherently found in walking alongside people in search of safety, meaning, belonging, healing, hope, and love. In and through each therapeutic relationship I build, I walk away changed and inspired by people’s capacity to forgive, grow, accept, change, and see the beauty in themselves and the world around them. Nothing brings me more joy than instilling hope and witnessing the magic of others overcoming difficult experiences.

Accepting New Clients-I believe that we all face unique challenges throughout our lives. I provide a space for you to authentically be yourself, without judgment. I aim to forge a trusting relationship to help you feel comfortable discussing your most protected thoughts and feelings. I provide support as we process through tough times, ask questions, and work with you to find solutions to your challenges. There are no quick fixes, but developing life skills, improving self-respect, and connecting with loved ones can be key in building a positive path for your future. We will create a custom treatment plan that works best for you.

I recognize the vulnerability, commitment and courage it takes to properly heal, and how intimidating it might feel to entrust an “outsider” with details of your life. Maybe you are experiencing anxiety and stress, or need to get over guilt and shame. Perhaps, you are a couple wanting to discover more deeply yourself and partner before marriage, or a couple in need of a “couples checkup,” to maintain a healthy relationship. Perhaps, you need help traversing infidelity, separation, divorce, custody issues, or other life transitions. We all need connection and at times, maybe just a little more support. When you're ready, let's talk.

I enjoy working with people who have an interest in their own personal growth, taking a journey, trying something new. If you are looking into trying out therapy, you ARE that person! You are looking to take a chance on yourself, and that's a wonderful, and sometimes overwhelming feeling. New things can be hard, and I think therapy should be supportive of this while guiding them through the necessary process of growing pains. Therapy can be hard work, but the benefits can last a lifetime.

I enjoy working with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, life and family transitions, parenting stress, attachment issues, and struggles with self-esteem, self-confidence and emotional regulation. I am especially passionate about working with individuals who have experienced trauma, particularly children birth to age 5 and young adults. My goal is to help people to gain a better understanding of the connections between their thoughts, feelings and behaviors in order to build a more balanced and meaningful life.
