Therapists in Chapel Hill, NC

I named my business "A Creative Becoming" because we are all a work in progress, maybe stepping into a place of becoming where we are more authentic and can move through our lives with more ease. My clients are typically looking for a place to use their inherent creativity, where they can become more present in their lives and uncover the sticky or stuck places. Moving into a place of loving kindness towards yourself or others when you have had traumatic experiences takes courage. It is my great honor to be able to be a witness and support as you engage in your process of "becoming".

I have been successfully treating children, teenagers, adults, couples and families since 1996. I offer a diverse menu of treatment options, from concrete skills to deep healing techniques to attain sustainable change. Viewing you holistically in all the contexts of your life, by recognizing your vulnerabilities while building on your strengths, is essential. I create a validating environment and an authentic, collaborative relationship. I am honest, empathic and an effective teacher. I will support you and challenge you to grow in the direction you desire.

We have 3 clinicians with immediate openings! Trauma, anxiety, and depression affect all areas of our lives and impact our ability to feel safe and secure.

These emotions can also become so overwhelming that they begin to interfere with our happiness, relationships, and ability to take control of our life. At Regrowth Counseling we will work collaboratively to process and endure intense emotions, overcome challenges and fill your toolbox with techniques to help you move forward in your life.

We are all journeying through life. At times the path you are traveling becomes unclear and may require action to move the debris blocking your way. Debris may show up as depression, anxiety, self-doubt, or even fear. There may also have been something along your journey which caused you great pain that could be hindering your ability to move forward in life. Counseling can support you with clearing the way so that you may see yourself and your path more clearly, allowing you to live the life you most desire.

At the heart of every successful therapy experience, is a genuine connection and trust between client and counselor.

Everyone needs someone to talk to. Someone who will listen and encourage, without judgment or condition. Someone who will not give advice, but will collaborate with them in finding the best path on their journey to finding some peace and contentment in a not-so-peaceful world.

Drawing from my experiences in culturally diverse communities across the globe, I strive to create a safe space in which your values and beliefs form the foundation of our therapeutic relationship.

No matter what’s going on in your life that’s led you to seek therapy, we can figure this out together. You don’t have to do it alone.

Everyday life can feel incredibly heavy and often times lonesome. Talking to a mental health professional such as myself can be very helpful. There is a myth that being in therapy is a sign of weakness, when in fact, reaching out for help is an act of courage and definitely one of the first steps of this journey. It is my privilege to work with you. My deep understanding of the diverse needs of my clients helps me meet you where you are. As a compassionate listener I provide a safe and nurturing environment where you can explore your emotions, confront challenges, and embark on a journey of growth, healing and self-discovery.
