Gottman Method Therapists in 28025

As a therapist, my focus is to meet the client where they are. I want to build a positive and trusting client-therapist relationship to help your focus on what your needs, stressors, and/or goals are to help you be the best form of you. We are all unique and are all faced with challenges whether they are big or small. It is important to be the narrator or our lives and together I will help you achieve the balance needed.

Working with complex couples, those dealing with major relationship issues like infidelity, infertility, illness, grief, family conflict, parenting issues, or contemplating divorce, are my passion. I take a non-judgmental stance that allows me to focus on the relationship as my client, while not taking sides. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, addiction, trauma, or other mental health conditions, I can help support you, while teaching coping mechanisms to create a healthy balance in your life. I apply a systemic approach when working with couples, families and individuals from childhood, adolescence, and adults.

I am a North Carolina Licensed Professional Counselor with over 13 years of experience providing counseling/therapy services. I received her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and later earned a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology (with an emphasis in Marriage & Family Therapy) from the University of San Francisco in California. My specialties are child & adolescent issues, relationship & family problems, adjustment problems, depression, anxiety, stress management, anger management and ADHD.

Have you been feeling lost, hopeless, angry, or sad? Maybe you used to feel confident, but now you live with fear and anxiety. Personal relationships have become hard; maybe you don't know who or how to trust. Has it been impacting you at school, work, in relationships, or in social situations? Maybe you even feel worthless, and the light you have inside is going out. All these feelings are normal for people who have experienced loss, tragedy, and trauma in their past. On top of current events and struggles, it's difficult to carry all alone. This can impact your light and hope for the future. Let's rediscover that light in you!

I have worked with couples and individuals in marriage counseling. I also work with middle and high school students on self-esteem, self-confidence and social skills. I am a dementia specialist and have a passion for working with the elderly and their caregivers. I relate to and work with clients with chronic illness as I have Type 1 Diabetes. I love working with a variety of clients.

As humans, we all face challenges that can become overwhelming. Maybe you want to learn how to better manage the challenges in your life. You want to feel empowered and purposeful, instead of feeling like your problems are the one in charge. Or perhaps you are seeking services for your child, who is struggling and could use some extra support. In my practice I collaborate with adults, teens, and kids on reaching their goals for greater wellness. Together we can address concerns such as anxiety, stress management, depression, life transitions, perfectionism & self-criticism, grief, or career & school issues.

I specialize in couples counseling. If you feel unheard, misunderstood or unappreciated in your relationship I can help. By teaching the two of you how to communicate in an effective way, giving you tools to navigate conflict and guiding you to overcome roadblocks to intimacy, I can help you create a more satisfying connection. I am here to listen to you and understand your unique situation and help you identify the negative patterns you are in and help you to escape from them. Together we can make your relationship a happy and long-lasting one.

I enjoy working with women, teens 16+, and blended families as well as pre-marital, married, and dating couples. I am experienced with adulting, anger management, anxiety, depression, faith and spiritual issues, peer relationships, relationship issues, self-esteem, women issues, work-life balance, and trauma. I welcome those who want to get outside and do Walk & Talk therapy. When mutually agreed, I enjoy integrating Christian principles into the therapy process.

Thank you for visiting my page. The ideal individual I work with is one who identifies that they need help in some area of their life and are willing to work with me to make their lives better. I work with individuals suffering from depression and anxiety; I specialize in working with couples (married or not) and families. Individuals I work with struggle with life's issues (divorce, financial, health, relational) to mood disorders. Typically their goal is to "feel better" or to "fix their relationship". My promise is to work diligently to assist them in achieving their goals using various methods in which to do so.

As a Nationally Certified Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor in North Carolina I work with individuals, couples, and families experiencing an assortment of issues and concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, grief/loss, academic underachievement, and drug and behavior addictions.

Do you feel like you are struggling? I help my clients go from surviving to thriving in just a few sessions. Therapy does not have to be hard, I make the process simple and easy so you can get back to enjoying the things you love.

I work with clients who are athletes or other high achievers who are struggling with stress or balance in their lives. Many of my clients generally function well but need to work through a relationship issue, or want to learn to better manage anxiety. Many of my clients are also working through identity issues related to gender or sexuality, faith crisis work, motherhood, or being defined by their sports performance (i.e. Who am I besides someone who is really good at my sport?). An unhealthy emphasis on perfectionism when it comes to body image, performance, or religion is a common issue I help clients work through.
