Therapists in Charlotte, NC

I love to work with children, families, and teachers, including Expat families and Third Culture Kids (TCK). My passion is connecting parents, teacher and students, so that all feel heard, supported and students begin to thrive. Many of my clients are overwhelmed by life and they don't know why or what to do about it. Parents and teachers both experience burnout. Getting stuck in the middle of chaos, makes it hard to find the next move. It is not possible to solve a problem without rising above it. My role is to bring you up out of the woods and help you find more effective solutions, ultimately bringing peace of mind.

My specialty is psychological assessment/evaluations for children and adults. Areas of focus include AD/HD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (Asperger's), Anxiety Disorders, Mood Disorders (Depression and Bipolar), Schizophrenia, Learning Disorders, Disruptive Behavior Disorders (e.g. Oppositional Defiant and Conduct Disorder) and Personality Disorders (e.g. Borderline). I provide IQ testing for school readiness (CAIS testing) and educational evaluations identifying specific learning disorders (e.g. SLD's in reading, writing and math). Additionally, I provide therapeutic services for the above mentioned challenges.

I specialize in treating the educational, behavioral, and emotional concerns for children as young as 3 through college age. Within the context of both testing and counseling, I am committed to helping parents with concrete advice and suggestions to better manage their child’s difficulties with anxious feelings, depression or grief, acting-out behavior, inattention, and learning disorders. My goal for the counseling or testing process is for the process and the results to be presented in clear, helpful, and practical ways so that children and their parents can be helped.

I understand that entering therapy is a very difficult decision and one that you may have been thinking about for some time. My initial goal would be to make sure that working with me would be a good fit for you. I hope to provide you with a warm, kind, and genuine environment. Overcoming emotional distress, whether it is depression, anxiety, relationship problems, or postpartum issues can happen in a therapeutic environment. My goal in therapy is to help you through these difficult times, and give you the tools you need to cope with life's stressors.
