Family Therapy in North Carolina

Raising a child with developmental, medical, or psychological difficulties can be a struggle for even the best of families. Couples, as well, often need help with navigating the myriad of "man/woman communication styles and parenting difficulties..

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 7 years of experience practicing in the Triangle area. My goal is to join with individuals and families to build on their inherent wisdom and strength to develop stronger relationships and healthy communication styles that foster resiliency. I use empathy, understanding and unconditional acceptance to build a trusting relationship with my clients. I believe in the power of self compassion and mindfulness to provide a path forward for individuals and families struggling with life transitions, sexual abuse, anxiety, depression, trauma, child/adolescent behavior issues and parenting support.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor providing art therapy along with traditional "talk" therapy addressing trauma, anxiety, depression, relationships, parenting, and other challenges. I create a personalized approach (including utilization of techniques from art therapy, solution-focused, person and family centered, cognitive-behavioral, and Yalom therapeutic models) for the adolescents/adults served and empower you to develop the skills and confidence needed to address future issues. Art therapy provides the opportunity to further optimize possibilities for insight, processing, and developing new tools for expression of thoughts/ feelings in ways traditional therapy may not be able to bring about.

Accepting New Clients - Life can be overwhelming, and trying to understand and process experiences can be difficult. Understanding your mental health and how to care for your well-being can be life-changing. Suffering from anxiety, depression, relational/familial conflict or trauma, or just looking for an outside perspective can all benefit from therapy. I do speak some Mandarin but require that clients also speak some English.

Together we can create a supportive, nurturing environment where you can explore your experiences, thoughts and emotions at your pace. My ultimate goal is to empower you to take steps towards fulfilment, healing, self acceptance and balance in your life. I prioritize empathy and active listening in sessions and help my clients establish personalized goals, always striving to foster a therapeutic relationship based on trust and genuine understanding. I believe in a holistic approach that considers the mind, body, and spirit, recognizing the interconnectedness of these in one's wellbeing.

As a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist I am deeply committed to supporting individuals who are struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, body acceptance, or trauma.

Life happens, and sometimes it can hit hard. Sometimes thing get too difficult. We change jobs, find new relationships, have changes to our family dynamics, move to a new city, or never feel like we really nipped that one situation in the bud. Sometimes we just need an extra pair of ears. It would be a pleasure to walk with you through your journey to redefining a new you. I have experience joining adolescents, adults, and families through their life journeys. I am an advocate of focusing on the full mind, body, and soul throughout your new life journey.

Paul Coelho says, “Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. Maybe it’s about unbecoming everything that isn’t really you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place.” I support clients on the journey back to themselves. We often put pressure on ourselves to “be” a certain way - so much that life can feel like acting instead of living. This acting can feel draining and lead to increased stress, anxiety and depression. I believe that therapy is a space where you can take off the facade and reconnect with your genuine, whole self - finding freedom and renewed vitality. I invite you to begin your journey.

You're tired of feeling stuck, hurt, confused, and lost. Life has stalled out because of relationship static, family stress, anxiety, career crisis, addiction, lost hope, or past events that keep you running in circles. Each day feels like you're walking on eggshells. Sometimes you feel so cut off from yourself and those you love that you’re not sure who you are anymore, or if it's possible to figure it out. You wonder if things will ever get better and if living life with peace, joy, and renewed energy can really happen.

Thank you for taking this first step toward self-improvement. Therapy with me is about rediscovering your inner strength, building resilience, and finding hope.
