Therapists in Matthews, NC

As a seasoned therapist with over 13 years of clinical mental health experience, I specialize in supporting individuals who have faced traumas and many other stressors life may bring. My passion lies in helping clients overcome life's challenges using evidence-based interventions like TF-CBT, CBT, DBT, and attachment-based tools. In my practice, I work closely with children and adults dealing with anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. Witnessing my clients grow and confidently navigating their healing journeys brings me immense joy.

In my practice, I work to help my clients feel comfortable and understood. I believe there are no right or wrong thoughts or feelings. I will support you and I will not judge. My experience is diverse as I have worked with children, adolescents, individuals and families in various settings. My methods include evidence based treatments tailored by my keen intuition and my client's individual needs and goals. I find success with my client's utilizing CBT, client-centered and psycho-dynamic therapies along with DBT skills. The benefits of DBT have proven to be tremendous and can be applied to many issues where appropriate.

Asking for help is hard and can be very scary, the fear of judgement, the fear of weakness, the fear of "going crazy". Yet I believe reaching out for help is one of the bravest things anyone can do.

It is never too late to start feeling better about being yourself, whether the work starts in childhood or later in life. I want to help people find peace in themselves whether through change or through acceptance.
