German Therapists in Old Fort, NC

When the intensity of painful feelings, the persistent chatter and/or stories in our minds become paralyzing; when worry or rumination interferes with sleep or functioning; when the depression and/or anxieties constrict life; when disempowerment and feeling overwhelmed drain energies and self-esteem; when feeling stuck, miserable and/or afraid is too familiar; when fears and uncertainties rob you of a vital life, it is important to know that you may expect from me radical acceptance, full attention, compassionate listening, active participation, extensive knowledge plus experience, to assist, support and facilitate the creative journey for renewed passion for life.

Each person's therapeutic journey is unique. The biggest step is the willingness and desire to seek help, especially when things are difficult. Openness and engagement are the pillars of a strong therapeutic relationship. My clinical practice focuses on the needs of the client. Allowing your needs to guide the treatment process. Determining which pathways work best for your needs.

I am a holistic practitioner of psychodynamic and somatic psychology who strives to help people gain confidence, fulfillment and joy in their daily lives. I offer a safe and collaborative space for my clients to discover their inner strength and connect to their own amazing spirits. The very symptoms for which we seek treatment have served some purposes, and together we shall discover the gifts therein. The empowerment gained from these insights create a rippling effect which can transcend every aspect of one’s lives.

Does your life seem like everything should be okay, but it isn't? Do you have panic attacks, break out in sweat, have heart palpitations? Have you had sexually confusing experiences? Do you feel detached? Do you experience flashbacks? Do you have nightmares? Is it hard to fall asleep or stay asleep? Do you startle easily? Are your angry outbursts hurting your relationships? Do you feel guilt, shame, despair, hopeless, helpless, worthless, withdrawn, numb, irritable? Are you self-destructive? Are you hostile? If any of these are true for you, I would be honored to work with you.

I have a general practice whereby I offer individual and couple counseling. My approach is client-centered and I utilize several different therapeutic modalities, according to what is most effective with each individual client.

I help clients recognize that they do not have to be victims of their circumstances or history. Sometimes we are faced with painful circumstances. Sometimes even everyday life begins to feel overwhelming. The unfortunate reality is that we cannot always control what happens in our lives. We can, however, choose how we respond to the difficult things that occur. I believe that all of us have the ability to grow and to make positive, lasting change in our lives. My role as therapist is to help facilitate this process.
