Children (6 to 10) Therapists in Waxhaw, NC

I am a believer in the human experience and normalizing the suffering that is a part of that experience. I do not take a pathological approach to individuals' mental health. I believe you will suffer within your lifetime and that we can work together to build your capacity for resilience. That being said I understand that some individuals have a chemical imbalance, or may experience psychosis if that is the case we can work together to take the proper steps for your health. Presently I work with children from ages four and up as well as adults.

I work from an existential perspective to help clients explore life’s challenges and acquire tools to thrive in today’s world. My path has led me to working with veterans, athletes, the incarcerated, and adolescents. I work too in the addiction space, with a particular focus on social media and helping both individuals and families explore the increasing role technology plays in our lives and how we can change our habits to protect ourselves.

If you have spent your life taking care of children, going to work, making sure everyone else's needs are met and you're ready for a change. I'm the therapist for you. I work with those who are experiencing a transition in their life. If you feel uncertain about the future or lack a sense of direction, I want to help. I work with men and women who are ready to explore and step into their true self. With gentle guidance and support I invite you into the change process of becoming your best self.

I specialize in creating person centered plans that focus on each clients individual needs. Everyone experiences life differently and it is my goal to work with individuals to assess their needs and come up with a plan so that they may continue to live healthy and beautiful lives. "We are not our trauma. We are not our brain chemistry. That is part of who we are, but we are so much more that that." -Sam J Miller.

I firmly believe in the value of the therapeutic relationship, in the value of promoting a facilitative therapeutic climate, and in upholding scientifically sound and ethical professional standards. My philosophy is that I will meet you where you are. After all, this is your journey. I hope that I can be alongside you, empowering you to experience yourself more fully, as a connected and autonomous being.

In addition to working with adults and couples, I am skilled at helping youth and teens navigate the increasing peer pressures and stressors related to social media, anxiety, anger/behavior management, trauma experiences, self-harm and substance/vape use and gender identity. I also love to work with adults on issues related to parenting difficult and defiant children, relationships, grief, addiction, trauma, depression and anxiety. I am well versed in ADHD, ODD, and addictions. It is never easy to ask for help so, go you! My goal is for people to leave each session feeling like the time spent was meaningful and purposeful.

I hope to hold this space for my clients and would be honored to support you in your journey.

My clients come into counseling with me to see how to heal, grow, gain new ideas, skills, and understanding, and know they are not alone.

I believe that therapy can help a person navigate through life challenges. I believe in providing a trusting, nurturing, and nonjudgmental environment where people can find and be their best selves. Therapy is a relationship between the clinician and the client. I will treat the relationship with respect, sensitivity and empathy. It is an honor to have the opportunity to help my clients through their most challenging times and I hope to have the opportunity to help you.
