Is there something holding you back, but you can't place your finger on it? Do you have goals you want to accomplish, but don't know where to start? Working with me, I can help you uncover the steps necessary for forward progress, and a deeper sense of clarity and meaning along the way. Gaining more confidence, improved self-image and esteem, better communication, and relationships with self and others is possible in therapy with me. Someone to listen without "fixing" and also capable of bringing the big picture into focus is your experience with me as a clinician. I offer genuineness, humor, and homework to put goals into action.

Are you feeling lost or stuck at this stage of your life, having difficulty navigating your next move? Have you noticed increased worry patterns or feelings of fearfulness and panic that come out of nowhere? Do you often struggle with taking time for yourself or feeling worthy of self-care? If you relate to any of these, we will work together to increase your confidence in moving forward and build consistency with healthy habits. We will establish goals that meet your individual needs and cultivate a foundation of emotional awareness. Let's lean in to more self-compassion and less self-neglect.

Hi! I’m happy you’re here. Do you give a lot of yourself and end up feeling depleted? Do you feel anxious, never enough, fearful, untrusting, and possibly unlovable or unsafe? Do you experience strong feelings of personal responsibility for the actions/feelings of others and/or worry that others will unpredictably turn on you? You deserve relationships and a life that bring out the best in you, not the stress in you!

Hi, My name is Jay and through personalized treatment, I help individuals access authentic emotional awareness and guide them towards true healing. I am a licensed clinical social worker and therapist who has been providing mental health services directly to people for over 20 years. I have worked successfully with clients of all ages who presented with a wide range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, behavioral disorders, stress, ADHD, relationship issues, struggles with parenting, substance use and abuse, career and job issues as well as survivors of trauma such as abuse and neglect.

Accepting NEW clients! I know that finding a therapist can be an overwhelming process. I honor your courage and hope that I can provide a soft place for you to land. I aim to foster a safe, empowering, and collaborative space for my clients. Sometimes we find ourselves losing focus of our life's purpose. Together, we can help identify your values and incorporate them in your life. Through mindfulness practices and acceptance-based strategies, I can help you let go of what is no longer serving you. The ultimate goal for my clients is to decrease any areas of distress while pursuing your values and finding more meaning in your life.

As a ketamine-assisted psychotherapist at Asheville Integrative Psychiatry, my professional journey has been deeply influenced by a commitment to holistic healing and the integration of diverse therapeutic modalities. My approach to therapy is grounded in the principles of person-centered therapy, mindfulness, and nature-based interventions. By fostering a safe and compassionate space, I aim to create an environment where individuals can explore their inner landscapes with authenticity and curiosity. I believe every human has the capacity to access their inner healing intelligence and achieve wellness by gaining new perspectives.

Finding a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and safe can be a challenge. I listen attentively and non-judgmentally to carefully understand the difficulty you are experiencing, and help cultivate a deeper understanding of yourself and the origin of your depleting, recurring problems. Understanding how past experiences influence your current difficulties is an important aspect of psychotherapy. I strive to offer meaningful and practical suggestions for change, which can lead to freedom from feeling stuck, and a much deeper enjoyment of life and relationships. 

We all go through times in our lives when therapy can help us to cope with the difficulties that arise. You are not alone. Maybe your are feeling overwhelmed or stuck. You feel like you have tried everything and you are looking for a new way to improve your situation. Perhaps your child has experienced an upsetting event and you don't want this to define them. It hurts to see the people we love upset or struggling. I can offer the tools, skills, and support for your journey.

Hi, I'm Brit. I'm a neurodivergent and highly sensitive expressive arts therapist. I support folks in Asheville and virtually throughout NC. I focus on working with adults and families who are pregnant or postpartum, as well as with folks across the lifespan who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, low self-worth, sensory sensitivities, grief or loss.

People often tell you that you are so strong and brave and appear to “have it all together” but inside that feels so far from reality. Do you have feelings of overwhelm or shame around if you are doing “it” right?- whatever “it” may be. Perhaps you feel guilty for spending too much time with the baby, or not enough time with the baby, or wanting time away from the baby. All of these are valid and deserve space to be said aloud. Maybe you feel worried all the time that something might go wrong. You have an inner voice that knows you want something to be different. You have the strength to create a life that is authentically yours.

Compassion is a basic human need that often goes unfulfilled. When we don’t get it from others, it’s no wonder we are our own toughest critic. We refer to ourselves in harsh terms we would likely not use with friends and family. We feel stuck, alone, hopeless. Reaching out for help is hard, but continuing the emotional suffering is even harder. My clients have described me as approachable, compassionate, & non-judgmental. My goal is to help you explore & process unhealthy patterns of thinking and behavior while learning new healthy ways to regulate your emotions, communicate with others, & to stand firm in your decision-making.

Adolescence to early adulthood can be a confusing and overwhelming time in a person’s development, but it’s a time with potential for powerful growth and healing. Your teen or young adult may be navigating sexual and gender preferences, peer relationships, and school responsibilities. They may be suffering from discrimination or bullying. Often these experiences can erupt in an array of struggles: anxiety, depression, gender dysphoria, anger, isolation, body image issues, or lack of focus. You want your kid to feel comfortable in their own skin; to learn ways to accept themselves and to thrive on whatever path they choose.

To move through suffering and risk hope of something better takes such courage. My work finds its foundation in a deep respect for that choice. I meet my clients’ courage by welcoming all parts of them- their overwhelm, strengths, grief, hopes, and fears. That welcoming manifests in my curiosity, care, and genuine empathy for your experience. My grounded presence, calm yet playful demeanor, clarity of thought, and feedback-informed approach have helped folks safely share their inner world. That safety can be deeply healing, and through it I've witnessed my clients move from simply surviving to living a life of vitality and meaning.

I am passionate about helping my clients reconnect more deeply with themselves and find a place within - that they feel secure and centered - so they can navigate the challenges of their lives and the times that we live in. I have worked with many people, especially women of all ages, who have struggled with challenges ranging from feeling insecure, depressed, anxious, angry, and hopeless, to lack of self-worth, motivation, and spiritual connection. I also work with women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer, terminal illness and those who are transitioning out of life.

I am committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space for my clients. I see my role as helping people identify self-limiting beliefs, emotional blocks and other barriers that keep them from leading lives consistent with their authentic selves and their values. I combine theoretical and psychological insights with more pragmatic skills training (relaxation, conflict-resolution, communication skills). I have an active, direct counseling style that combines genuine empathic listening with therapeutic challenges.

I genuinely care about helping people to reach their potential and discover contentment. With 35 years of experience and numerous training workshops, I have many tools and skills to call upon. I focus on both short term stress/career issues and adults from neglectful/ abusive families. and I am compassionate and nurture my client's inner strength until they can believe in themselves. I seek individuals who are willing to work on the relationship, fear, addiction trauma or life transition that is blocking their personal joy in life. I work with women and men of all races and sexual orientations.

I believe that authentic & supportive relationship is the catalyst for positive change! I help couples, families & individuals better understand themselves & each other. I have extensive experience with relationship repair & enrichment, supporting families & individuals adjusting to separation & divorce, as well as successfully treating mood & anxiety problems. I have specialized training in Gestalt Therapy, Brainspotting, Dynamic Attachment Repatterning Therapy, Addiction Recovery support, alternative/integrative processes including Emotional Kinesiology, Single's Coaching, Heartmath, and several other modes of assisting change!

Are you looking to improve health in mind, body and spirit? I believe healing comes from dimensions including physical, mental and emotional health, environmental factors, lifestyle choices, relationships and spiritual life. My approach is strength based, empathic and interactive. My training has been in the treatment of anxiety, depression, ADHD/ADD, trauma, PTSD, grief/loss, relationships and family issues. My aim is to provide a supportive and safe space where we can collaborate and work at your own pace to help you reach your goals.

If you have been feeling lost, unsure of what's next, feeling increased worry, self-doubt, guilt, or shame—these may be indicators that it’s time to pause. I’d like to help you peel back your layers and make more room to breathe. If relationships have become increasingly difficult to maintain, I’d like to help you build your skills around communication, increasing intimacy, and improving effective dynamics to get your own needs met. Sometimes coping through alcohol or drugs is a part of the struggle, and you are safe to talk about this here without judgment or a hidden agenda.
