Family Therapy in 28173

Are you feeling stuck repeating the same cycle over and over again? Are your usual ways of handling stress not working anymore? Are you struggling in your relationship with your partner, family, or friends? Maybe you know something needs to change but you are feeling powerless to make that change. At some point we all encounter difficulties in our life and feel unsure of our next steps. This is common but can feel lonely and isolating.

Are you struggling to find solutions to your most pressing concerns? Do you find it difficult to communicate with others? Are you feeling bullied, depressed, angry, frustrated, or misunderstood? Are you struggling with understanding your or a family member's sexual identity? Have you experienced physical or verbal abuse and find the trauma is overwhelming you? Have you experienced thoughts of suicide? If any of these questions resonate with you, then let's chat a bit. It is my goal to help you identify and achieve yours!

It’s okay to ask for what you need. This is something I need to remind myself of on a daily basis. So many of us focus intently on making sure everyone else is taken care of and we completely abandon ourselves and ignore our own needs. This leaves us feeling exhausted, depleted, and quite frankly, resentful because we think to ourselves “why isn’t anyone taking care of me?” I teach my clients what a healthy relationship looks like because if this wasn’t modeled to you at some point throughout your life, no one can expect you to know what it means.

I understand the weight trials can have on one’s shoulders, and you do not have to carry them alone. I have experience working with those who have endured trauma, illness, stress, and the uncertainty life transition can bring. I am devoted to empowering those experiencing anxiety, depression, women’s issues, identity issues, new parenting, communication, and relationship issues. I have a passion to serve others through the many pivotal moments life brings. During these seasons, the therapy room is a safe environment for such change and exploration. I would be honored to support you in your therapeutic journey.

Family can be a source of joy and strength but can also be chaotic and overwhelming at times. I know that life transitions and big events can be challenging for individuals and that sometimes having an outside resource to talk to can be helpful. If you are struggling to start a family, dealing with pregnancy/postpartum related mental health concerns, pursuing kinship care/foster care/adoption, or working to overcome a traumatic experience, I would love to connect and see if I can assist you in reaching your goals.

Life sometimes tends to get in the way of a person's happiness. Sometimes a person may feel overwhelmed that they do not have anyone to talk to. Family members are not a resource that a client may want to utilize in their moment of distress. I want my clients to feel that they have a resource and someone to help them through the different avenues of life. I want my clients too know they are not alone, and they have someone to help them navigate through their struggles. I have worked with families of different backgrounds and have met them where they are in life. I'm here to help you develop and learn new options.

Do you struggle to remember the last time you were really happy? Does it seem like intrusive thoughts are always with you? Do you feel like you're trying to keep up appearances, while your acquaintances seem to have it all together? Imagine how you would feel if you didn't have to worry about this getting any worse. You could feel free from the cycle that is interrupting your success, your family life, your education or your career. You can start to feel engaged and in control of your life. I can help!

Are you struggling with stress, anxiety, depression or relationship difficulties? Do you want to lead a healthier, more fulfilling life? My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more meaningful life.

As a Certified EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) Couples Therapist and Supervisor, I love helping couples find or restore the loving closeness they long for. EFT is recognized as one of the most successful approaches to couple therapy. I will help you identify negative patterns of interaction and explore feelings that perpetuate it so that you can step out of the pattern and create new ways of interacting that promote and deepen empathy, closeness, and intimacy. My clinical experience includes helping individuals successfully grow through challenges such as depression, anxiety, healing from trauma and abuse, and coping with loss.

My name is Rachael, and I would be honored to be a part of your life’s journey. I understand that beginning therapy can sometimes feel overwhelming or uncomfortable, but I strive to provide a warm, caring, and down to earth atmosphere. I truly enjoy helping people set goals, solve problems and create positive change in their lives; I look forward to working with you.

Is life unmanageable? Are you sad, hopeless, fearful? Are you struggling in your relationships? Does life feel meaningless and purposeless? In life, we all face seasons of suffering, and I would love the opportunity to come alongside you in that season. We are not meant to do life alone and sometimes we need some extra support to help us gain skills for coping or relating to ourselves and others. In my practice, my goal is to help you gain mental health that will impact all the other areas of your life for good.

Life can be challenging, and we are not meant to travel it alone. Each of us, at times, needs another person to walk alongside us as we sort things out. I am honored to serve in this role, working with you through life's difficulties, transitions, tragedies, and triumphs. Very few challenges are insurmountable. Sometimes it just takes some added support.

Hello there! I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of experience. I completed my Master's from Stony Brook University in Long Island, New York. Recently, I relocated to North Carolina, and I am honored to help adults of all ages who are facing various challenges with anxiety, depression, addiction, and individuals and couples who are struggling in their relationships.

I am a Generalist, working with children adolescents, individuals, couples and families. I use a CBT approach, with Christ-centered focus with scripture and prayer. Trauma healing and transformation are essential in my practice.

A journey of a thousand miles begin with a single step. Sometimes taking the initial step can be the most challenging thing we do. Congratulations! You’ve taken your first step. As you begin to honor your needs please allow me to walk with you during your wellness journey. I combine clinical skill with compassion to help people of diverse backgrounds reclaim their joy. I help navigate unique situations to restore mind, body, and spirit balance. A successful therapeutic relationship is about building a rapport based on trust. I help to ease emotional burdens and provide a safe and special sanctuary for clients to be themselves.

I have been working in the mental health field for over 30 years, the last 20 being in private practice. Sometimes it helps to have a place to put your stress and feelings so you can release them and take a break from them. I offer a safe space to explore and process your feelings. I teach coping strategies, or reinforce the ones you already use.

If you’re here, congrats. Chances are you realize something needs to change. Often times people come to therapy after they’ve already exhausted every resource and option they know. It’s a huge step to ask for help and an even bigger step to show up and take it.

I work from an existential perspective to help clients explore life’s challenges and acquire tools to thrive in today’s world. My path has led me to working with veterans, athletes, the incarcerated, and adolescents. I work too in the addiction space, with a particular focus on social media and helping both individuals and families explore the increasing role technology plays in our lives and how we can change our habits to protect ourselves.

I am a believer in the human experience and normalizing the suffering that is a part of that experience. I do not take a pathological approach to individuals' mental health. I believe you will suffer within your lifetime and that we can work together to build your capacity for resilience. That being said I understand that some individuals have a chemical imbalance, or may experience psychosis if that is the case we can work together to take the proper steps for your health. Presently I work with children from ages four and up as well as adults.
