Therapists for Teens in Carteret County, NC

Seeing clients through the Psychology Today Telehealth portal allows me to assist clients throughout NC. I work with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, anger issues, PTSD and Asperger's disorder. I work with couples to improve their communications & the overall quality of their relationships. I assist couples whose relationships have suffered from infidelity. I also help families deal with the challenges of divorce, step family formation, and parent/teenager conflicts. I have experienced divorce, remarriage, and step family issues, thus I understand the emotional impact of these life changes.

Having support and guidance with life challenges can be empowering for healing and self growth! Many times we just need someone to listen as we talk through our life challenges. A good working relationship between a therapist and client begins with rapport and trust. With a Person Centered approach in our therapy sessions, I will utilize therapeutic interventions, such as CBT, TFCBT and expressive therapies so each session is individualized to the client. I completed my Phd coursework for Advanced Studies of Human Behavior in 2015 and I completed my master's degree of Community Counseling in 2009.

I am a Licensed Psychological Associate with over 30 years of practice working with children, adolescents and women. I work with a variety of disorders, including ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, as well as Anger Management and other Behavioral concerns.

I can't get my life together - something I hear every day from clients. Having ADHD and trauma can feel like a gut punch. It makes everything confusing and frustrating. Friendships, romances, work situations, all of them feel just so...overwhelming and exhausting. It feels easier to be alone in your off time because there are no weird social rules that you don't know to manage. You also don't have to feel on edge every moment because you're going to do or say the wrong thing. But being alone just makes you feel, well, lonely. Feeling like a failure every minute, then people pleasing and masking, it's all just too much.

An ideal client is a person wanting to explore meaning in life, means of improvement, freedom from bondage or other factors that deter them from realizing their dreams. They may want Christian counseling or simply to understand how they can reach their goals. They are motivated to embrace life in a purposeful way, moving towards the changes they seek for their well-being. They may present with issues in mental or behavioral health, including mental illness or addictions, and are seeking ways to help prevent or lessen the presenting problems in their life. They may want to cultivate their relationship with Jesus Christ.

"What hurts the most is pretending it doesn't." Reaching out to others for help is never easy, going it alone is even harder. Life sometimes provides us with demands, challenges and obstacles that sometimes can become overwhelming. Do you have a rough time at school, tired of arguing with your parents. Are you struggling with relationships, going through a breakup/divorce. Maybe your suffering from anxiety, stress or depression. While creating a supportive environment we can work together on building a solid foundation and begin to change how you see others, how you see circumstances and more importantly how you see yourself.

We all experience times of stress and anxiety but sometimes this becomes overwhelming and we may even experience depression due to our current situation or from past traumas. I treat clients using a holistic approach with a focus on mindfulness and through a trauma-informed lens. I hope to provide skills and be a listening ear to get my clients through difficult times so they are better able to handle what life brings.

I love my work with children, teens, and families. I am driven by my passion to help others discover their potential by using individualized methods to fit the needs of those I work with. I have found that many couples get lost in the day-to-day activities losing track of each others needs. I enjoy helping couples learn new skills that can help them reconnect and learn to navigate life stages together. Children and teens are faced with many societal pressures that can be challenging for adults to understand. By working collaboratively the discovery of healthy communication can benefit families.
