NOW > Offering "Structured Family Interventions" to help family members cope with a loved one with addiction issues, and facilitate them getting to primary treatment. It can be frustrating to feel and behave a certain way, knowing that you have or can be better at living. I am comfortable with those who know that something is not working and are considering how to change, so they can ultimately function better. My clients are those who come for one on one counseling, family members, and couples who struggle with addiction in the home. I have a wide range of experience in treating addiction, mental health, and supporting recovery.

From the outside looking in, people see someone who “has it together.” Perhaps this is related to your family, job, marriage or community. From the inside looking out, you see a world full of pressures, expectations and a need to cultivate happiness for those in your life, sometimes at the expense of your own sanity. I often hear from clients that they feel “stuck” in the same cycle of life and can’t seem to find satisfaction, despite having many of life’s “checkboxes” marked off. Experiences of chronic anxiety and worry are common though they keep moving through the motions of life.

There are times in everyone's lives that they need guidance, support, or just a sounding board. I strive to provide that in a safe and welcoming environment in which you can navigate whatever life has thrown your way. I aim to collaborate with clients to identify and work towards achieving their goals. I work with clients to find solutions to a variety of problems, with particular emphasis on life transitions, identity development, and interpersonal dynamics.

With over 30 years of experience, I subscribe to a solution-focus philosophy, in which I strive to address the problem as quickly as possible, but with enough depth to avoid relapse. I set goals early in treatment with adults and couples, or with children/teenagers and their families, so we can find successful solutions and change behavior problems, emotional difficulties, academic difficulties, or family problems as soon as possible. I love people and people's stories, and am always truly and deeply interested in the story of every child, teen, and adult I meet. I also think laughter is therapeutic and therapy can be fun.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor based in Matthews, NC. I provide individual therapy for teens and adults that primarily utilizes the modalities of DBT and EMDR. I employ a person centered approach to ensure the client is getting what they need from therapy. I work with individuals who have a history of trauma that has led them to experience difficulty being present in the moment, managing stressful situations, regulating emotions, and communicating effectively. Additionally, I have a background in community mental health and enjoy treating individuals with psychosis.

My practice offers confidential psychotherapy services in a comfortable atmosphere. I have been a practicing psychotherapist and addictions specialist since 1998. I want to hear about your goals and what brings you to treatment. I communicate openly and directly and encourage my patients to do so with me. I utilize several modalities to include, but not limited to CBT, DBT, EFT, mindfulness and motivational interviewing. Having a "life worth living" is pivotal and worth fighting for. When you complete treatment, I want you to feel that you, " got what you came for". It's never too late to effect change and heal.

Everyone experiences the world differently so emphasizing characteristics that are unique to you can be key to positive change. I take a client-centered approach to individualizing treatment and, as our world is ever-changing, this includes adapting with you when necessary. While CBT is often an effective approach to begin making changes, I find that pulling features of other modalities helps develop a well-rounded understanding of your worldview and provides varied tools to be resilient in the face of life’s challenges.

People often seek therapy to resolve past experiences and life complexities and the decision to enter therapy may carry feelings of ambivalence and uncertainty. I believe that therapy is most effective when persons are offered an environment that is inviting, attentive, collaborative, affirming, and safe. Subsequently, my goal is to provide a challenging, but non-judgmental and encouraging atmosphere for persons to explore concerns and difficulties as a means of achieving desired change.
