Family Therapy in Eastover, Charlotte, NC

Are alcohol and drugs playing an unwelcome role in your family's life? Are you tired of nagging and pleading in hopes of making it stop? Would you like strategies that work? I am a Certified Addiction Recovery Coach, clinically educated with a master's degree in counseling. Through my training, I support your family in finding and increasing motivation for your loved one to make positive changes.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina, Virginia, and Florida. We are faced with so many obstacles in life that we never expected. Sometimes it is difficult navigating different stages in our life, we have challenges within our relationships, or we are being pulled in so many different directions, we don't know where to start. Then there are those moments that are so heavy and we are exhausted from carrying the burden all on our own. This can make us feel lost and overwhelmed. My approach to therapy is centered around you and your needs. I am here to help you navigate those unexpected obstacles.

Breaking free from unhealthy patterns in our lives can be difficult. Emotions may feel out-of-control at times and self-defeating thoughts may run amok in our minds. We might feel trapped in isolation, unhealthy relationship cycles or struggle to move beyond past hurts, traumatic experiences or our own mistakes. There is hope. It is possible to heal from the past, gain control of our emotions and develop new ways of thinking and relating to others. I would be honored to have the opportunity to walk with you on your journey towards increased peace of mind, meaningful connections and renewed purpose.

Do you find yourself living in the past, focused on pain, shame or regret? Are you stressed or anxious about what the future has in store for you? You may be missing out on living your life to the fullest TODAY. You are certainly not alone. Many of us are trying to figure out how to deal with past hurt or difficult experiences. I would love to help you obtain the peace and fulfillment you desire. You can feel more confident about yourself, your relationships, and your future, while enjoying life today. I am here to provide the guidance and encouragement you need and deserve.

You've gotten lost in the daily grind and drifted apart. Work, kids, laundry.. you feel like roommates who split chores. You don't feel heard, seen, admired, desired or understood. It seems like you keep fighting over little things, that quickly turn into arguments about unresolved issues that have stuck around for years. You've tried everything. Ignoring it, conceeding, appeasing, fighting, silence, retreat..

Life often feels hectic and out of control. At times it feels like life is living you, not the other way around. You feel like you have to always be "on". YOU FEEL EXHAUSTED. You have so many plates in the air and you put everyone else's happiness before your own. But now you are wondering why you bother because your sacrifices seem to go unnoticed and under appreciated. And somewhere in the process of taking care of everyone else you seemed to lose your sense of self. You can't even remember what it was like to live life as your best self, let alone how to get back to that place.

I work with adults who are in highly stressful professions but who are also often in need of being seen and understood as persons with identities outside of their professional roles. Many of my clients have hidden depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and relationship stressors.

I provide a safe place to explore the many facets of my clients' complex identities.

Based on a holistic approach that encourages a healthy lifestyle for overall physical and psychological well being, I help my clients access and harness their intrinsic power to achieve and maintain the meaningful and fulfilling lives they desire. Through talk therapy, I guide clients towards self-reflection and the internal curiosity required to facilitate healing , problem solving and resilience during difficult times.

We will have a free-flowing conversation and explore whatever is on your mind and in your heart. Our work will proceed at your pace, so that you can move forward with greater calm and confidence.

You have been trying to find some way to live a meaningful and fulfilling life. You have always experienced life with great depth and thoughtfulness, however, something hasn’t quite clicked yet. You perceive that others seem to have their lives together, although, in all of your rich internal experience, you haven’t been able to, just yet, put all of the pieces together. You may feel alone, experience anxiety, depression, or engage in compulsive behaviors you just can’t manage to quit. Yet, something in you knows that there is a greater world out there, maybe even right around the corner, if you could just get a glimpse of it.
