Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Frisco, NC

I work with a variety of clients with my animal co-therapists to guide clients with PTSD, Trauma, Addiction issues, Depression, Anxiety, Highly Sensitive People (HSP's), Panic Disorder, Grief/Loss, Life Stressors/Transitions, collaboratively to identify their unique strengths and areas of need. Clients I work with want to get "unstuck', move forward, identify healthy coping skills, process their emotions/cognitions in a supportive environment and develop a maintenance plan for their mental health to empower them! I also provide face to face and online supervision for LCMHC's.

I work with adults only and specialize in treatment for chronic pain, complex trauma, anxiety, and grief. I especially enjoy supporting clients who have functional pain syndromes (e.g., fibromyalgia) and painful autoimmune diseases (e.g., lupus, MS, RA) alongside histories of trauma. Clients most frequently come into therapy with me expressing a desire to more deeply understand themselves and their sense of suffering, and to heal the burdens they carry. My job in that process is never to fix you or tell you what to do. Rather, it is to support you in discovering your own deep knowing about who you are and what you need to heal.

The label of "anxious" has followed you around for a while now, put there by your family, friends and maybe even yourself. Living with anxiety feels like that tightness in your chest, cramping in your stomach and like you can’t quite catch your breath.

Maybe your thoughts and feeling have been manageable in the past but they feel out of control lately. I can help you. I believe you have the ability to live the life you want to. Let's work together to unlock your potential.

Therapy is typically viewed as something that is challenging and scary. However, I want to help clients see that therapy doesn't have to be challenging and scary yet, it's something that everyone can benefit from. In life we all can face obstacles, some small while others can be life changing. Life changing enough that it can effect how we perceive, people, places, things, and even how we perceive the world. When we get to this point many of us don't know how to cope with the struggles life brings. It is important for us to find peace within ourselves by learning who we are, how things affect us and understanding what we need.

I am a psychotherapist licensed in North Carolina and Virginia.

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.
