So many of my clients come in feeling like something is wrong with them. They are relieved to know that their feelings are normal. My clients come to me because they just want to feel better. They want to be less depressed, less anxious, better parents, more confident, and have healthier relationships. I work with my clients as they learn new ways of coping and living life that free them from negative thoughts, behaviors and patterns of emotional reactivity.

I have previous experience as a parenting coordinator and can assist individuals and families in navigating separation/ divorce in ways that are healthier, though I do not currently offer services to be used in court.
I enjoy working with a variety of clients to overcome obstacles and challenges and increase happiness and satisfaction in multiple areas of life. My primary treatment approach is cognitive-behavioral therapy, meaning we work on changing thoughts and behaviors in order to change feelings, but I do incorporate other approaches when they would be beneficial. If you are seeking to improve your self-esteem, relationships, work, or school performance, I may be able to assist. Also, as an Army veteran and the spouse of a retired veteran, I understand the issues our military and families face.

I am a Registered Play Therapist working with children who are hard to reach either because they are angry, anxious, or depressed. Children don't express themselves the same way that adults do, rather, they express themselves more naturally through play. Play is a child's natural way of relieving stress and play therapy is the best practice for working with children. Using Play Therapy most children are able to work through issues in a much shorter amount of time. For more information Call today (910) 407-0052 and check us out at www.AtlasChildCounseling.com

Stressors come in many forms: family issues, relationship struggles, grief and loss, addiction, health problems, just to name a few. Often, these create conflicts – internal and external – and confusion about who we are, what we stand for, and what our life priorities are. My approach is designed to help clients disentangle these conflicts and to make sense of the confusion. During this process, clients learn about self-validation, finding a stable sense of identity and self, effective communication in relationships with others and oneself, creating healthy boundaries, and reducing stress.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
