Life can just be really HARD sometimes. Coming to therapy can give you a place to unpack, unburden and untangle all of the “stuff” that’s weighing you down. I love connecting with my clients in a relaxed, open-minded, inclusive space that allows them to feel free to be themselves! In therapy, we will work together to figure out what feeling "OK" or "better" would look like, then we will collaborate on how to move towards that.

Life can be a struggle. Maybe you’re balancing multiple demands: parenthood, relationship, career, and you feel constantly pulled in different directions. As the demands increase, time for yourself decreases and you find yourself full of worry and defeating thoughts such as: “I can't handle this” “what will I do?”; “I’m not good enough”. Self doubt and insecurity set in and daily tasks may feel like they’re more difficult to get through. You may feel exhausted but these running thoughts keep you up at night. Or maybe you’ve felt this way for a while, and you’re beginning to wonder if you will ever feel content again.

Life brings with it many challenges. Anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, anger are all to common. Feelings of isolation from the help you need. Maybe you are a military service member or a local first responder who feels forgotten by those whom you served. Maybe you feel lost in life and need a place to find relief. Whoever you are, I desire to help.

I was in NY for the past 20 years and working at Columbia. I have transitioned to NC within the past few months in hopes to enjoy the slower pace and the sunshine. I believe reaching out to a therapist is one of the hardest things to do because of the stigma. My goal is to provide a caring, nonjudgmental space for you to express your true feelings of anger, depression, anxiety or even addiction. I believe your past unconsciously impacts your future and with a little patience, empathy and understanding can lead to a happier you!

Morning Glory Center for Creative Healing is literally a dream come true. In 2001, dear friends who were also Mental Health professionals and I started dreaming of the ideal practice. We wanted a warm welcoming place where clients could find the freedom and safety to heal, grow and deepen. We are located in a beautiful old two-story house replete with tea in the kitchen and a therapy dog and bunny. The creative healing part of our name refers to the use of writing, visual art and movement as part of the therapeutic process. We also do traditional psychotherapy with individuals, couples and families. We also have a Pilates Studio.

Hi, If you are looking for an addiction specialist then you have come to the right place. I have more than 25 years experience in the addictions field. I am a native New Yorker and have been living in North Carolina for the past 18 years. I know how overwhelming it is to reach out to a therapist for the first time. It like stepping into the unknown and that can be a good thing at times. Don't allow society's stigma to stagnate you from getting the help you need I believe that counseling is a collaborative endeavor that requires me to be a non- judgmental ,honest, compassionate and caring therapist.

Life can get messy. Sometimes we don't know how to handle it when things don't go the way we had expected. Such experiences may lead us to feel hopeless, frustrated, or even misunderstood. Having benefited from therapy myself, I understand the challenges that come when "life happens". Maybe you are an individual with conflict in relationships, crushing depression, or overwhelming anxiousness. Maybe you are a couple, or family that struggles with communication and unhelpful patterns. Whatever your story is, I am willing to help.

Do you feel anxious, disconnected from life or loved ones, or find yourself reacting to those around you? Do you find that you don’t feel like yourself but can’t seem to figure out why? You may have unhealed trauma. Trauma is just a fancy word meaning ‘wound.’ Similar to physical trauma, emotional wounds exist in our mind and body. So no, you are not ‘crazy.’ Unhealed trauma can lead us to hold negative stories about ourselves, others, and even God. Maybe you feel frozen or stuck in one aspect of your story and wonder why you can’t ‘just move on’ from something that happened to you years ago.

Now Offering: Clinical Supervision for LCSWAs. Like many overwhelmed women, I'm guessing you've been taking care of the needs of others for so long that you've lost touch with how to take care of your own. I'm also guessing you're burnt out, and simultaneously feeling like you're doing too much and not enough. Whether you are hoping to process childhood wounds, relationship issues, or work stress we can work through it together. I enjoy working with women ages 18+ to address wounds related to their own upbringing, trauma, issues that come up in parenting, anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

Your struggles are valid. Do you feel like you don't want to be a "burden" to others by sharing your feelings or talking about things that happened so long ago? Are you someone who lays up at night replaying events from that day because you think you offended somebody, or feel the need to review things many times to avoid making a mistake? If you are exhausted from people-pleasing, find yourself triggered into emotional outbursts or shame, anxiety, panic attacks or self-doubt in your abilities, I want to walk with you through the weird, embarrassing, and painful parts of your life so that you can find comfort, acceptance, and hope.
