Life Coaching Therapists in 27510

Hello! And welcome to my practice. I have a couple of specialities. First, I help sufferers of trauma become safely emobodied after years of disconnection and fear of feeling. Second, I help clients build nervous system regulation and secure attachment so they may feel safer and more free in the world. Third, I coach clients make room for their true 'selves' in their lives, without sacrificing family or connection, blending individuation/exploration with secure attachment. And finally, I help clients remove barriers between them and their goals so they may lead more purpose driven lives for themselves and those around them.

You can feel connected, confident, safe, and energized in your life and relationships. I'd like to help. I'm interested in you and your relationships. Your relationship with others and relationship with self. Your relationship with work and rest. Your relationship with identity. Your relationship with your story, your past, and your future. Your relationship with your losses, your injuries, and your grief. ​Your relationship with things seen and things felt.

Understanding and making sense of your experiences and patterns can help you live a more balanced life - a life which empowers you and generates a positive path to growth, health, and well-being. The goal of our therapy would be to bring more awareness to your choices and patterns, so that you can be empowered to make more mindful decisions. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and make sense of the past and meet new challenges in your life with more clarity and balance.

MOTIVATE Counseling & Coaching, a mental health & personal improvement practice, helps you get where you want to be. We often view growth & learning positively but stress & discomfort negatively. The reality is they are inherently connected. You are the expert of your life & no one is better able to determine what is best for you than you. Whether past traumas, current stressors, future worries, inability to follow through, or reluctance to take that “next step”…MOTIVATE will help process & develop a healthier understanding of what has occurred in your life, clarify what you want, understand barriers & overcome them.

Feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and exhausted constantly? Isolated and alone because you don’t want to burden your friends or family with your problems? Or maybe you don’t know quite how to name why you feel this way or how to talk about it. Here is the good news - therapy is the place to explore the challenging thoughts and feelings you're having. I’ve worked in the mental health field since 2016, helping people of all ages, backgrounds, and challenges. I approach mental health challenges with a holistic mindset to help identify what we can change, inside of our control, and to increase resilience.

Stress and challenges are part of living a full life. How you manage these challenges makes the difference between suffering and engagement in solving the problems that lead to depression and anxiety. That means building skills that help you live the kind of life that is meaningful and facing the issues that are leading you away from your best self. My hope is to focus on how to help you help yourself.

Are you stuck, repeating the same patterns in relationships that start out full of hope and desire, but end up in distance and disappointment? Do fears keep surfacing that lead you to react in ways that sabotage your goals/push others away? You may worry about rejection and loss, or find yourself lonely and disillusioned, wondering what's "wrong" that undermines your happiness. Rest assured, you're not alone! I've been there, too. If you are suffering in relationships, feeling heartbroken, or yearning from unmet needs, I can empower you to understand and change the underlying dynamics to promote intimacy and connection.

I support parents who are feeling overwhelmed, tired, and frustrated by their children's behavior. My clients feel like they have tried everything - read books, listened to podcasts, and still they are shocked by their child's, tween's, or teen's behaviors. At their wit's end, my clients find that they default to yelling, taking devices, play dates, and outings away from their child in an effort for their child to behave. Some of my clients are in therapy and their therapist has encouraged them to seek out parenting support.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, it is an honor and privilege to walk alongside others. Through my counseling, I purpose to empower individuals to chose the path that leads to healing, wholeness, hope and renewal.

I've got over 15 years of clinical experience and a whole lotta life experience at this point that informs my work. While what we face is nothing new, it's also true that this is a really hard time for so many reasons. Let's start by validating that.
