Therapy works best when it rests in a relationship of trust and mutuality between you and your therapist.
Living and enjoying your life with greater degrees of wholeness, love, freedom and creativity is possible. But you feel stuck in unhealthy patterns of relating to yourself and others. Maybe a traumatic event or life history keeps you frozen in time and in distress. Perhaps your sense of wonder and awe at being alive is diminished and you long for meaning. Maybe you find that you're living through a maze of symptoms like depression and anxiety. You wonder if it's safe enough to talk to someone and be heard in a non-judgmental way.

The most important part of therapy is the relationship between therapist and client, so reach out for a consult.
You may be feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and anxious from trying to hold it all together for everyone and everything. You put on a “happy” face and push through the day only to wonder if you will ever feel better. Until now, you’ve been able to manage it on your own, but it’s starting to affect other areas of your life and you can’t pretend everything is ok anymore. Maybe you’re struggling with anxiety, stress, a relationship or health concerns but wherever the pain is coming from you are tired of feeling alone and stuck. You want to make lasting changes, but deciding where to start feels impossible. I’m here and I get it.

I can help you find new ways to experience your relationship, and to find that path toward healing.
It can be so painful to feel as if you are not truly seen or understood. You want to feel deep connection in your relationship, and you want to thrive in it as your authentic self, but conflict ends up unraveling all of that. Instead, you find yourself feeling disconnected, frustrated, confused, and alone. When arguments happen, it can be so difficult to put into words what is happening for you in the moment, and the disconnection feels overwhelming. Not only do you want to find healing and meaningful connection in your relationship, but you also want to come alive as a vital part in it.

I use a client-centered approach and believe that the relationship between the client and the therapist is a main component of successful therapy.
If you are struggling with relationships, depression, anxiety, or low self-esteem, I believe I am the right therapist for you. If you are experiencing challenges because of trauma, abuse, or difficult life transitions, I can help you heal. I offer a unique blend of non-judgmental listening, creativity, and genuineness. I will work collaboratively with you to help you develop self-awareness, confidence, and healthier ways to handle the challenges you are facing. I provide adult, family, and adolescent therapy. I am in network with Aetna and BCBS, as well as the Clear Pricing Project (CPP) for the NC State Health Plan.

You can face difficult moments, and learn how to care for and mend your relationship.
Have you ever found yourself thinking, "It would be nice if we could go back in time to those unspoiled moments in our relationship before hurt, doubt, and betrayal ever touched us." You think about the times where you both held one another and never missed an opportunity to say "I love you." It was a beautiful point in time where you realized that nothing else in life meant as much to you as your relationship. Even though you can't go back in time, you can repair what is broken in your relationship.

Licensed Marriage & Family Therapists are Relationship experts.
I consider it my personal mission to reduce the divorce rate in the United States, 1 couple at a time. But preventing divorce will only be succesful if, in place of unfulfilling or chronically dysfunctional marriages, couples develop truly thriving marriages & deeply fulfilling relationships. Even in the most hopeless-seeming cases, couples can heal the damage from the past and move forward in a healthier way. Not all marriages can be saved, but when couples do the work to heal the past, their future can be happier, no matter what the outcome for the relationship.

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to consider me as your therapist. With a profound respect for self-love and self-compassion, I often work with individuals struggling to re-discover their purpose and are convinced they are unworthy of anything good and healthy. Have you been in a relationship that's left you feeling depleted of self-worth? Do you feel as if you can't do anything right? Are you experiencing feelings of hopelessness and having trouble moving forward? I specialize in working with the impact of toxic relationships and the aftermath of leaving a narcissistic partner.

I have experience working with individuals who are seeking to improve their relationship with themselves and with others.
As a Counselor I seek to guide, encourage and assist individuals through difficult or uncertain times in their lives. Learning how to navigate through relationships to feel more connected to ourselves and to others can seem daunting. Clients should expect there to be freedom and openness in a safe environment. It is my desire that those who enter into the counseling relationship should also find keys to understanding themselves and skills to cope with the various issues that may bring them there. Counseling is a helping relationship. It is a place where trust and mutual respect abide.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Having negative or scary thoughts? Unfortunately, it seems increasingly that we all – from teens to adults — can easily become overwhelmed by life’s stresses. Trauma can often play a part and make asking for help even tougher. Understanding how hard it can be to reach for help and understand these emotions constructively, I create therapeutic spaces, free of judgment and heavy on patience. I work with teens, college students and adults to create a therapeutic relationship to help you learn to manage your thoughts and feelings and apply practices to your everyday life to help in the future.

Each person comes to therapy for honest reasons. As we live, we often get overwhelmed, stuck, we suffer, and lose ourselves/others. Through cultural conditioning, we have forgotten to see the sacred in grief and honor what was. I get to join with others to help dissolve what is blocking them from their innate wisdom to know selves and connect with others. When I work with helping couples repair, I get to come alongside each person to help them not feel alone in their experience. I am an experienced relationship therapist (and work in progress). I enjoy helping people become more securely attached and live according to their values.
