Existential Therapists in Charlotte, NC

I am adept at treating much of the human condition because my training is existential-humanistic. My approach is holistic, client-centered, and tailored to the specific place you are in your world. I will help you connect with your purpose and meaning, as well as evoke the innate ability for healing. I do not believe in an ideal client, but there is an ideal relationship that we can establish together. I will ensure that you feel attended to, heard, and seen in the way you wish to be, and to become. You deserve stellar care! Visit or call for free 15 minute consultation.

You’re here because you’re tired of living in the same old patterns; I’m ready to help. Therapy can be a powerful tool in this process by helping you gain insight, support, and confidence to develop new patterns and behaviors. I work collaboratively with individuals to identify the sources of their pain and empower them to resolve them. You're not alone & things can improve. And if you’re wondering if now is the right time, it probably is.

Do you feel stuck or lost much of the time, but also have an innate ability to recognize that you want and deserve more out of life, out of your relationships, perhaps more out of yourself? Do you want to participate in a deep dive of possible unconscious material that may be holding you back? Being able to open up about these vulnerabilities is challenging and involves deep exploration into the psyche. My intention is to create a safe, accepting container so you are able to explore all parts of yourself, welcome them and integrate them into your life.

Life is tough. Do you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or out of rhythm by the complexity and challenges life may present? Do you struggle with any of the following issues: anxiety, perfectionism, self-doubt, unrealistic expectations, feelings of failure, low self-worth, lacking self-acceptance, emotional regulation, lifestyle management, or relational issues with spouse/partner/family/kids? Do you feel your life lacks meaning or purpose? If any of these issues resonate, I believe I can provide you the space to explore the conflicts within and help you find a pathway towards resolution.

My top priority is to provide a safe, supportive environment for anyone struggling with their identity, experiences, or beliefs in addition to other mental health concerns. I work with a variety of issues with a focus on PTSD, depression, anxiety, dissociation, trauma, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, relationship difficulties, spirituality and/or religious trauma in addition to other concerns. I am especially passionate about work with anyone seeking a supportive space to heal, discover who they are, or navigate existential concerns, welcoming those of all beliefs in finding connection, hope, and peace.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I obtained my undergraduate degree in Clinical Psychology and graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. My therapy approach is taken from an attachment theory and perspective. I believe humans are wired to feel connected, and that we all greatly benefit from healthy relationships. Without this connectedness, we may experience loneliness or isolation. I provide a safe, accepting space for individuals, couples, and families using a positive Existential Therapy Model to support self-awareness, meaningful relationships, and values of life.

I do not believe there is a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. I adopt a collaborative approach to treatment working closely with my clients to determine goals for counseling. Together, we will explore both the current circumstances and the past experiences that are contributing to your concerns. Then, we team up to find solutions to current problems and work to heal old wounds. I use an eclectic approach tailored to the specific needs of each client, but primarily draw from psychodynamic, existential, CBT, and mindfulness interventions.

I offer a calm, accepting space for you to explore your inner world, past experiences, and the impact these have on your present day. Those who consider themselves highly sensitive, often feel misunderstood, or are contemplating existential and/or spiritual concerns are areas I provide insight into. I am also passionate about working with adolescents and children. In today's times, young people face unprecedented challenges and circumstances that require connection, support, and guidance. I provide this along with skills to utilize one's innate capacity for growth and change.

My ideal clients are tired of traditional psychotherapy approaches. Do you want help with stress management? Anxiety or feeling over-sensitive to others? Relationship issues? Goal Attainment? Motivation ? or Issues related to emotions and self-esteem? Have you been experiencing body pains and somatic concerns? Do you feel disconnected and not grounded? Finding balance and reconnecting with self can be challenging but I am here to help!

My approach to therapy fosters deep healing. Through a collaborative approach I help clients understand patterns in their life. My job is to accompany your long lasting mental health through utilizing a comprehensive modern person-centered approach to therapy with curiosity and a deep respect for the individual process. My background in religious philosophy allows for an existential exploration of stage of life changes and bereavement. Existential exploration of inner dynamics helps to uncover purpose and meaning in life.

Grief, trauma and systemic oppression have increasingly become visible and universal experiences affecting individuals, couples, families and communities. I began my career working with the survivors of intimate partner violence and individuals/families grappling with cancer and death. These experiences have informed my practice working with individuals, couples and families dealing with loss, grief, trauma, anxiety/depression, major life changes, chronic illness, abuse and relational distress.

I have been practicing psychotherapy for 30 years. I have experience with a wide range of issues. I am most effective with anxiety related disorders and mood disorders. I have extensive training in mindfulness based cognitive behavioral therapy and utilize that approach most often. I find that I am able to connect with a wide range of clients and issues due to my many years of practice. I consider it an honor and a privilege to assist people meet their goals and make any life adjustments they bring.

I believe there is power in learning to balance our lives emotionally and spiritually. I have 20-plus years as a counselor, and have been able to help clients find emotional and general life balance. I draw from primary treatment modalities of Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectical Behavioral, Solution Focussed, Psychodynamic and Existential Theories. Ideally, at the conclusion of counseling, a client will be able to actively deal with their internal states in a way that allows them to feel more at peace with increased self esteem, and well being.

ATTENTION ADOLESCENTS AND ADULTS: Do you feel like you are never good enough and that nothing will get better? Do you feel like you are the only one struggling with intense emotions and that there is no one to help you figure them out? Are you struggling with how you look and/or feel about yourself? Do you think everyone else has their life together and you don't? Do you experience highly intense flashbacks? Are you excessively drinking alcohol, excessively spending money, isolating yourself from others, having sex but immediately regretting it afterwards?

Every life trauma and struggle can be transformed into strength and beauty. My passion is to work alongside those who are determined to face their pain, fears, and limitations and discover their purpose in life. I specialize in the treatment of trauma, grief, adjustment issues, anxiety, and BPD. Every week, we have a DBT group meeting online. Additionally, I also work with people (artists, and athletes) who wish to develop their performance and creativity.

I know how hard it is to seek help when you’re struggling. I get it because I have been there too. You deserve to live fully. You deserve better than scheduling problems, long drives, big bills, and weak outcomes. Maybe you’re afraid it will take years of counseling just to start feeling better. I believe therapy should be a lot more than learning how to cope or survive something. It should help you achieve your goals, thrive in relationships, and live more fully.
