Hi, I am Rachel and I am looking forward to connecting! Humans have a wide range of emotions and it’s okay to need some support navigating them. People come to therapy for lots of different reasons and sometimes they don’t even know the reason until several sessions later. It’s brave just to start! My goal is to meet clients where they are at and help them develop mindsets that allow them to evolve mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, or in their own way. I firmly believe our mental health matters and it has an affect on every aspect of our lives!

I am honored you are here and I am hopeful that together, we can collaboratively begin a journey in which we help you to find a sense of balance, validation and empowerment. I am an LCSW with over 10 years of experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, adults, families and couples struggling with a vast range of concerns. In my experience, presenting issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, social concerns, difficult family dynamics & significant life transitions can impact individuals in all spheres of life.

Whether you are carrying the weight of past traumas, experiencing overwhelming emotions or feeling disconnected from yourself and others, my hope to offer you a place of safety and support to explore those challenges together. I believe the client- therapist relationship is critical for success and I make it a priority to develop a safe, trusting environment where you can feel at ease to explore your emotions, vulnerabilities and experiences with me. I show up as my authentic self with the people I work with, leaning on compassion, acceptance, and humor to lighten the load, while we tackle the difficult aspects of your experiences.

Hi, I am Sara and I am so excited to meet you! The decision to seek help is a brave step and I am so proud that you are here. I know that finding a therapist that feels right can be difficult, but I am here to let you know this process does not have to feel this way. I believe everyone deserves a safe place to be seen; encouraging individuals to take a step outside of their comfort zone to grow in any direction they desire. My hope is that together we can create your safe place and through a holistic approach, help you evolve!

Welcome! I am so glad you took time to explore what can be offered through psychotherapy. I'm an integrative therapist that pulls from multiple treatment modalities to individualize care. I compassionately connect with all clients to assess needs, develop treatment plan and collaboratively move through stages of change to address concerns that precipitated therapy. I can treat an array of complex disorders, difficulties managing life and offer areas of specialization. Please visit my website for specific details.

Over the past 8 years I have gained experience in a wealth of areas that impact individuals and families. I strive to provide a non-judgmental and safe space to assist clients with their growth. Treatment specialization includes therapy for anxiety, stress, anger, domestic violence, addiction, divorce, and parenting.

Now accepting new patients! I firmly believe that we all have the capacity to grow through understanding and our past experiences. Whether you're new to therapy or seeking a fresh perspective, I foster a welcoming, non-judgemental space where you can feel safe to share authentically and begin healing. Therapy allows for the process of self-discovery to unfold, so that we can understand where we've been and intentionally move towards where we want to be.

Do you struggle with feeling that you're "too much" and "not enough" all at the same time. To the outside world, you look "fine," but inside, you feel downright exhausted, and pretending everything is okay is getting old. Your stress level is through the roof. You bury your feelings and prioritize putting others first, meaning you hardly ever find time for yourself. What's self-care?! Eventually, the stress and exhaustion catch up! You're tired of pretending and ready for change. The good news is, there is help. Whatever curveball life has thrown you, relief is possible.

Couples who are struggling in their relationship with trust/betrayal, communication, and intimacy may often feel as if they are on a completely different page from their partner. My goal is to help you reconnect in your relationship, communicate better, and get back to a place of comfort and support. I also work with adult individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, life transitions/adjustment, poor interpersonal relationships, and stress. I strive to help you better understand your past experiences and the influence this is having on your life now. I balance process oriented work with skills needed to make changes now.

Throughout life, we encounter experiences and challenges that are unexpected. During these difficult times, the future may seem out of our control.

Whether this is your first experience with counseling or you are looking for a new approach to treatment, I welcome you to sit and talk and let's find a plan that works for you. I am passionate about working with individuals and couples to navigate life's most difficult challenges, including anxiety, depression, and relationship/marital concerns by providing a safe and non-judgmental space to make meaningful change. I believe that warmth and compassion are essential components to a strong therapeutic relationship and to supporting personal growth.

My practice over the past 25 years as an LCMHC has allowed me to help people of diverse backgrounds overcome a variety of life's challenges. I help people by meeting with them, learning about their problems and discovering ways for them to feel more at ease. The most common issues that I help people with involve their moods (for example sadness, worrying, anger or stress) and with their relationships. The type of psychotherapy I do is very intense and short term compared to other types of counseling. It’s called Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. It means that we explore the ways your thoughts, beliefs and feelings affect each other.

I offer psychotherapy for children over 14 years of age, couples and adults. A typical client may have Bipolar Disorder or other depressive or anxiety disorders or behavioral issues, such as anger outbursts Or they may struggle with grief or other difficult life situations and need support and guidance. I specialize in treatment of trauma related disorders, such as PTSD., and also in treatment of adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. My approach to treatment is gentle but direct. I respond to your unique needs, drawing from your strengths and encourage you to be open and move towards positive life changes.

Hello! I am a DBT-informed and psychodynamically-oriented therapist working at Lifescapes Counseling Associates. My first priority is the quality of my relationships with my clients. I care deeply about our trust and rapport and know that a positive clinical relationship is necessary for therapy to be successful. I am currently taking continuing education courses at the Psychoanalytic Center of the Carolinas where I am working through an intensive psychoanalytic psychotherapy training program. These courses will allow me to increase the depth of our sessions and improve my understanding of you.

Your child has been having a hard time with “big feelings” and “big behaviors”. You have spent hours searching to find ways to help your young child have less intense meltdowns and tantrums, or to help your grade schooler better handle transitions or unexpected change, or to help your tween worry less about “adult things” and things they can’t control. It has been extremely difficult seeing your child struggle and you really wish you could just make it all stop, but you’re out of ideas. I know that the process of finding a counselor for your child can be exhausting and intimidating, but you don’t have to walk this journey alone.

I believe that everyone has unlocked potential inside of them. Substance addiction, anxiety, trauma, anger, codependency and fear keep us from achieving our goals and being the best version of ourselves. I strive to help clients see all the amazing qualities they hold within themselves and overcome those obstacles that prevent them from reaching their full potential in all areas of their lives. I am EMDR certified, utilize CBT, ACT, DBT, and Reality therapy.
