Hi, I’m Claire, and I am glad you’re here! My approach is non-judgemental, warm, while adding some humor along the way. Therapy can be intimidating, I am present with you the whole way while being gently challenging to help you reach your goals or break out of unhelpful behavior. I do this through Internal Family Systems modality, utilizing meditation and creating a safe space for inner work. I also incorporate elements of CBT and DBT with discretion to help you reach your goals. I also offer art activities in sessions if there is interest. The healing process is collaborative, and I will help you find your strengths.
I work with adolescents (11+), adults, and couples. I am LGBTQ+ ally trained and honor all identities that clients have. I primarily work with depression, anxiety, coping skills, processing difficult experiences, and developing identity. I also help people foster healthy relationships with others and themselves.
I hope to be part of your healing and growth journey. Feel free to reach out for a consultation or any questions that you may have. I look forward to hearing from you. You can find me through Tides Counseling and Wellness in our High Point office by emailing me directly, calling (336) 332-2277, or by clicking "my website".
