Did you know ages 45-55 are just as developmentally rich as adolescence? What if we saw aging as a spiritual path, and our body's symptoms of perimenopause and menopause as guides? A mid-life crisis is often characterized by an anxious sense of "is this all there is?" compounded by stressors related to caregiving, death, divorce, job loss and relationship dissatisfaction. This can create existential questions related to one's identity, purpose and meaning in life. Yet this mid-life chrysalis, is an opportunity to slow down, reflect and become more fully conscious of ourselves as women in the afternoon of our lives.

With over 25 years in the mental health field and 13 years in private practice, I offer a multitude of personal and professional experience. Much of our suffering is due to dissatisfaction in relationships. Sadly, many relationships end prematurely when we are most hurt and emotionally vulnerable. However, this is the time when the very intimacy we were lacking prior has the potential to finally break through. I give you tools and insight to heal old wounds that are holding you back from experiencing the love you seek within yourself and others. Together we address the intrapsychic conflicts and longings of the soul.

We each have an innate wholeness. Our work is centered around connecting you to this wholeness. Health is not just being able to have positive experiences, but to be able to move through the range of human experiences without getting stuck in one over another. In this way, I view health as the ability for movement – whether that be psychologically, energetically, or within a system. The ability to move and adapt without getting stuck is essential for our well-being. It is my intention to help call forth your Unknown Self – so that you may move through life in your wholeness. It is a true honor to get to do this work.

Wholeness leads to healing. I guide my clients to accept all parts of themselves and find balance in their lives. I entered the field of counseling with a passion for treating trauma (big T and little t trauma). Along the way I gathered some exceptional tools for doing so, including EMDR and a somatic approach to psychotherapy. Not so far removed from trauma, I have also developed a specialty in treating addiction of all kinds. I have seen the power of emotional healing to transform people's lives in ways they always wanted but didn't know how. I am here to help whenever the client is ready to do that brave and powerful work.

I provide therapy to individuals and assist in developing a greater sense of self and the confidence to be as we are. I have experience in cognitive behavioral techniques, which I use to help you identify unhealthy patterns of thinking. Identifying these patterns can help you reach your goals, improve your mood, and strengthen relationships. I also incorporate Jungian concepts in my practice with the hope of sparking creativity and finding meaning in our lives. I am committed to individualizing each client’s therapeutic experience and providing an empathetic and comfortable environment.

My ideal client wants to change and evolve, and is willing to work at it through sessions and homework! I'm non-judgmental and a creative collaborator with my clients. I've done my job if clients feel heard, renewed, and empowered. I have a ton of experience and credentials: I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Brainspotting, and Brain-based Hypnotherapy. I work in trauma recovery, relationship issues, addiction, mood disorders, Jungian counseling, and spiritual counseling. I'm extremely adventurous, youthful, and have experienced life in many places and realms.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate in NC, a National Certified Counselor, and a Qualified Professional in Outdoor Behavioral Healthcare with over ten years of experience as a direct care staff and mentor serving pre-teens, adolescents, young adults, and their families. A special focus of mine has been serving helping professionals who experience burnout, through individual counseling, peer support groups, advocacy, research, conference participation, and professional presentations. I am passionate about holistic wellness within the mental/behavioral healthcare field, as this directly impacts client care.

Licensed in FL and NC. Do you want to feel more connected? In therapy we’ll get to the root of what holds you back, heal, and integrate new ways of being. I specialize in deepening relationships, healing attachment wounds, attachment styles, LGBTQIA+, and conscious living. This work is very personal to me. That’s why I’ve dedicated my life to healing generational trauma, and supporting others on their journey. Deep understanding is the most powerful healer. If you want to embrace all of your emotions and all parts of yourself and others; call me. I’d love to hear from you!

As a clinician I am passionate about working with individuals around their personal goals and identity development, assisting couples in more effective ways to communicate and deepen intimacy, coaching parents who are struggling to show up in a way that feels good and effective with their children, or families who are struggling to navigate the challenges of their unique lifestyle.

As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner with a specialization in early attachment, I love to support clients to access the incredible power of their own bodies. Focusing on body awareness, mindfulness and empathy, I hold a safe, compassionate space for my clients to move from old traumatic behaviors, thoughts and relational patterns toward freedom and joy. Together, we bring loving attention not only to what hurts but to the self underneath. I love seeing how inner growth helps people shape a life of real connection and creativity.

My therapy approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. In an open and caring environment, an individual's ability to change self-defeating patterns of thoughts and behaviors, increase self-esteem, recognize strengths, and develop healthy relationships is enhanced.

We all experience stuckness in our lives-in our relationships, career paths, body struggles, anxiety and depression, and more. Many of us know what we need to do to move forward—but find ourselves unable to take the leap to make it happen. And then we blame and shame ourselves, and stay in a loop of self-doubt that goes nowhere. The good news is you’re not lazy, crazy, broken, or unmotivated. Connection heals. I will support you in reconnecting to your authentic self, help you find ways to create a sense of safety within, and breakthrough what's been holding you back.

I am a psychotherapist for adult individuals and couples. Do you want stronger, clearer and healthier relationships? My clients consist mainly of open minded, artistic and unconventional persons wanting more intimacy and connection or wanting to explore their innate gifts and talents. I also work with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and non-binary persons. However, I love working with anyone who is seeking growth, wholeness and perspective.

I believe every child and adolescent has the potential within themselves to become healthier and happier, and it is my job to help them unlock that potential. Traditional cognitive and behavioral approaches often fail to create meaningful change, which can lead to feelings of failure or discouragement rather than empowerment. Whether your child or adolescent is struggling with self-esteem, social challenges, or regulation skills, I can help them recognize and unlock the skills and strengths that they already have to over come those challenges.

Each person comes to individual therapy for numerous and very honest reasons, despite how overwhelmed and powerless they are feeling. It is okay to not know what to do or know what is next. Deep down, I believe that each one of us has the innate wisdom to know themselves and to know what to do next, under optimal conditions. Couples caught in a criticize-withdraw cycle are often doing what their survival instincts tell them to do. I am also highly trained in couples counseling and marriage counseling through emotionally focused therapy (EFT). Marital therapy and individual counseling need guidance from an empathic but neutral party.

As a licensed therapist and hypnotherapist, I have a wide range of experience with varying ages that include depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, self-worth/esteem, negative habits, relationship and family issues, ADHD, and intellectual/developmental differences. I provide a welcoming space for processing what arises in therapy, manage and regulate difficult feelings in a healthy manner, develop effective coping skills, raise awareness of thought/behavior patterns, heal unresolved emotions, and create a plan for life improvement. Unconditional positive regard, warmth, and acceptance are key elements to the therapeutic work

My approach to therapy is rooted in compassion, acceptance, and mindfulness. I am an expert in the field of post-traumatic growth and am skilled in working with trauma and addiction. I am passionate about helping people manage distress and to connect with meaning and purpose in life. I strive to be genuine and authentic, incorporating humor and warmth to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and respectful space for healing. I am committed to facilitating a transformative experience which will help you to deepen and make desired changes to truly thrive in your life.
