Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists in Waynesville, NC

I connect easily with clients to feel lighter and clearer in their minds, body, and Spirit. I work with people with stressful careers in medicine, law, finance, and small businesses. Knowing the necessity of keeping a clear head and calm body, yet have been struggling with heartbreak, anxiety, fears, loss and grief that has created overwhelming stress and expectations that limits functioning. It is a challenging balancing act with career, family, relationships, along with finding some quiet time to relax. I help you master these challenges with a very confidential, (no insurance or electronic records) safe, and caring environment.

Are you struggling to manage everything going on in your life? Do you feel like you're just not able to say no to people? Are you stuck in relationships and cycles that don't serve you anymore?

I was a young adult struggling with the same issues until I found a trusted therapist who saved my life. You shouldn't have to feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders and you're struggling to stand. They say "You can't pour from an empty cup" - let's figure out how to replenish yours first.

My clients are adults, adolescents, and children who need help coping with anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, abuse, educational/employment situations, family dynamics, or other problems impacting their mental health.

Life can present challenges, some we live with every day, and others seem to come out of nowhere. Maybe life doesn't follow along a path we've spent years creating and working toward. The business of living can begin to feel like a grind, and simple tasks may create exhaustion, fear, and uncertainty. Unresolved and painful childhood memories seem to revisit out of nowhere, and even though you've worked and wished, or prayed about the pain, the pain lingers. We often resign ourselves to perceiving life as a chore instead of a joyful experience, which can lead to a lack of fulfillment and even chronic illness.

I'm glad you're here. I deeply respect your courage to engage in this process, and I want to know you and your story. To help you get grounded in your body, perspective, and self. I strive to create a warm space of acceptance, meeting you with care, insight, empathy, humor and playful challenge. Through this, I hope to help you create an experience of self compassion that leads to deep changes in perspective that offer new possibilities for you. I believe therapy is a balance of support and challenge, and you grow at your own pace. I help my clients find meaning in their experiences and move forward to create new stories.

Determining which pathways work best for your needs.

While facing life's tough moments, we often grapple with feelings that are hard to put into words. It's not about fitting into neat categories or labels; it's about understanding the basic human feelings of pain and discomfort. Maybe you've felt really alone, like your struggles are hidden and nobody sees them. You might feel a heaviness in your chest or a tense feeling when dealing with tough situations. These are the struggles we don't always talk about. It's the weight of unspoken feelings that makes us crave connection and understanding.
