Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based out of North Carolina. I received my Masters degree from Arizona State University and have been practicing for 9 years. I believe that working together in a safe, non-judgmental environment can create space for the healing you deserve. In my early career I worked with Child Protective Services to support the reunification of children with their biological parents. I then moved to North Carolina to continue work with keeping families together that had suffered trauma and/or behavioral issues.

I am an EMDR and Brainspotting therapist, specializing in trauma, anxiety and depression.
Hello! I understand you may be facing numerous challenges in your life that have led you here. Whether something occurred in your past or more recently, it has likely triggered flashbacks, anxiety, depression, stress, relational difficulties, work-related issues, or an overall sense of being overwhelmed. You might have sought therapy previously without finding lasting relief, finding yourself inundated once again with memories and negative thoughts. I teach each client in their 1st session how to control their symptoms through amazing neuroscience techniques. If traditional talk therapy didn't help, I can!

I hold a deep passion for helping people improve their lives and understand the importance of effective treatment. My interest in becoming a therapist stems from my own experiences with trauma and witnessing mental health struggles within my family. This has made me particularly sensitive to people with similar issues. At NOCD, my team and I specialize in providing evidence-based treatment for OCD. Our deep understanding of the nuances of OCD enables us to properly diagnose and treat it. Additionally, we have received training in Exposure Response and Prevention Therapy (ERP)—the gold standard treatment for OCD.

Welcome, looking for someone that is warm, direct and knowledgeable. You found it! I obtained my MSW in 2013, from Rhode Island College. Following my graduation, I worked at a Psychiatric Residential Facility where I learned the benefits of ACT, CBT, TF-CBT and DBT modalities. In 2015, I moved to Mecklenburg County Public Health, where I worked alongside CMPD providing therapeutic support to families that experienced acute and prolonged trauma exposure. During my tenure in Public Health Department, I honed my skills in somatic approach, such as EMDR and Brainspotting, to help the individual improve their mental health.

If you're seeking an active therapist who does more than just listen then we're probably a good match. I practice strategic goal-focused therapy. You can verify this by watching my videos, reading my book chapters online and reading about my PTSD work at: www.carycounseling.net. My two specialities are EMDR for PTSD and marriage counseling. I have published in both areas. The EMDR International Association has certified my competence and my theory on the psychophysiological basis for EMDR was published in the Journal of EMDR Practice & Research. My book "The Marriage First Aid Kit" has helped thousands of troubled marriages.

I am a cognitive-behavioral therapist, and I have expertise in the use of mindfulness-based treatments including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and the treatment of trauma. I see a wide variety of clients in my practice, including individuals struggling with symptoms of borderline personality disorder (BPD), depression, and anxiety disorders. I also work with survivors of trauma, including physical and sexual abuse and assault. I believe that effective treatment begins with a collaborative relationship with my clients.

Please note: I am currently working online only. My varied approach draws on traditional training as well as several related prior professional experiences. I have over thirty years of experience in helping professions including psychotherapy, counseling, higher education, and human services. My doctorate involved multiple disciplines, including psychology, philosophy and the arts. I am also a former yoga teacher. All of this experience has deeply influenced my practice. In addition to various more conventional therapeutic approaches (DBT, EMDR, insight oriented, etc.), I often include body/mind practices.

If you are a trauma survivor who needs some help processing or if you're experiencing some of the symptoms I mentioned earlier & suspect that trauma may be a factor, I'd love to help.
Every day I have the privilege of working with the bravest folks on the planet & none of you know it when you first walk in the door. You often feel defeated, overwhelmed & ashamed that you aren't able to "get over" your sexual, physical or emotional trauma. It's also common for you to have a nagging, chronic sense that something is just not right, an unhappiness; feeling unloved or unlovable, disconnected from friends and family, having lost a sense of purpose or direction. Without knowing that these symptoms may be telling us that a past trauma--long ago

As a practitioner, I accept that problems, struggles, and even trauma are intrinsically connected to living.
I offer clients a collaborative approach to address whatever may have brought them to my door. My relationally focused psychodynamic style supports the idea that healing occurs through our connection with others. By providing a safe and solid therapeutic relationship to a person, that person begins to experience a greater range of perspective regarding their own life and the lives around them. With increased self-awareness, individuals are able to recognize that they have more choices in their lives. I have found this to be true regardless of what obstacles a person may be facing.

I have been trained, certified, or had extensive training in: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT - effective in treating anxiety, depression, and other mental and physical health problems), Trauma Focused - CBT (evidenced-based treatment for those impacted by trauma), CBT-Insomnia, eating disorders, grief, couples, parenting, and suicidal ideations.
Most people with anxiety or depression don’t realize how their negative self-talk keeps them down and actually deepens their anxiety or depression. After working with me, my clients identify and reverse the effects of their negative self-talk, start feeling energized and motivated to do the things they used to enjoy, and are able to experience the simple joys of being alive again.

Special areas of strength include helping men, LGBTQ+ clients, trauma survivors, those in academia, and/or with connected faith issues.
Sometimes we all can use a little help on life's journey--when things seem dark, when we feel like we are drowning in emotions, challenges, or thoughts, or when we just need someone to help with focus as we set a course toward achieving our goals. That is what therapy is all about! Therapy is not having someone with all the right answers tell you what to do or doing things to you; it is having a professional guide to draw out your goals and strengths, to breathe hope into difficult times, and to assist with perspective and skills. As Rumi said, "The wound is where the light enters you." Come, find hope, and refuel for your journey.
