As a psychotherapist and licensed clinical social worker, I earned my MSW from Smith College School for Social Work in Northampton, MA. My professional background includes training at Duke University, Duke University Medical Center, and my work with children, teens, adults and families through the NC community mental health system. I have served as field supervisor for MSW interns from the UNC School of Social Work and as clinical supervisor for Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associates. My focus includes anxiety, depression, grief and loss, managing stress and life transitions, relationship difficulties, and supporting greater awareness and functioning. Thanks for considering me.

As a sex therapist, I work with clients across identities and orientations, as well as individuals, couples, and partners. My services include supporting those with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, traumas, sexual orientation, gender identity, and polyamory and non-monogamy. My ideal sex therapy client is willing to commit to therapeutic work together in a trusting, empathetic, and honest environment. I have specialized knowledge about those who identify as LGBTQIA+ and am an out queer, trans therapist serving my community.

I provide both outpatient mental health therapy and substance abuse/use assessments and therapy to all members of the community. Clients experiencing such issues as depression/anxiety, PTSD/trauma, life changes, gender identity concerns, and substance use will benefit from the services I offer. I utilize a person centered approach and work collaboratively with clients to address their needs. I meet clients 'where they are' and work with them to identify positive interventions and change. The comprehensive clinical assessments and substance abuse assessments I provide meet criteria for court ordered and school referred clients and can be completed in office or at your location.

Accepting new clients as of 05/02/2024. As a psychotherapist, I work with adults who want to live a better, more meaningful life that isn’t dominated by suffering and shame. In my work, I help individuals tap into their inner wisdom and vitality during sessions to live better lives outside of sessions. I work with individuals to address issues including mood and anxiety, relationship struggles, substance use, life transitions, gender and sexuality, complex trauma, and identity exploration. I believe that we all struggle to deal with various types of pain, but with help and compassion, it is possible to live a liberated life.

You're feeling stuck in your behaviors and patterns but don’t know how to break free from the cycle. Maybe you’ve made a few changes in life and you’re finding it difficult to fit into your environment because the people surrounding you aren’t supportive of your new self.

I am an experienced therapist and have a lot of skills working with people that confront challenges in their lives. I have worked with both adolescents and adults as well as older adults and there is nothing better for me as a clinician to see people overcome their challenges and return to a higher quality of life, connected to their families and support networks. I have experience working with people from all walks of life and circumstances.

Psychotherapy is a unique endeavor, as it provides opportunities for rich self-exploration and meaning-making. Life, without question, presents sublime bliss and considerable challenge for all of us, albeit in different ways. In my work as a psychologist, I endeavor to support people, from diverse backgrounds, cultivate more authenticity, autonomy, and emotional wellness and fortitude. I deeply believe in human potential and the inherent worthiness of all people. An ideal client has an interest in symptom reduction and internal change. A generalist by training, a unifying theme throughout my work with people is vibrant connection.

I am a therapist who believes in the authenticity of each person's struggles as they encounter them in their journey through life. I seek to help others in the curing of their souls through psychotherapy. I make every effort to provide a therapeutic environment that is non-judgmental, supportive, safe, nurturing and empathic. Making the decision to come to counseling can be difficult and overwhelming. It's a privilege for me to be present with you in this process. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to email or call.

I partner with individuals and families to promote mental health and wellness across the lifespan. My colleagues and I believe that comprehensive care is individualized, evidence-based, and founded on a culture of integrity, respect, compassion and authenticity with our clients and among our staff. Our hope is that we can assist you in finding acceptance, healing, growth, and work/life balance. Read more about myself and my colleagues at www.CatalystNC.com.

We all deserve to build lives worth living. And while our lives are inherently worth living, mental health struggles may cause that vision to blur in and out of focus depending on what’s going on in our lives. I believe that all the wisdom we need is within us already. To me, it’s about recognizing, becoming attuned to, and building confidence in that wisdom, as well as confidence in ourselves. I am skilled in conducting therapy with LGBTQIA+ clients, individuals with personality disorders (and their loved ones), neurodivergent clients, folks with chronic pain/illness, mood disorders, and people who have experienced trauma.

Mick Jagger’s well known refrain tells a story, "I can’t get no satisfaction.” When this refrain becomes a personal credo, our patterned responses to life’s disappointments may provide clues for a way forward.  For all of us, the world can disappoint. If what happens next leaves us feeling stymied and lethargic, backed into a corner with no where to go but down, it is possible thinking and talking about our experience in new ways is ultimately what is needed.  Psychoanalysis and its therapeutic cousin, psychotherapy (talk therapy), provides a crucible for persons to discover & express our truest & sometimes hidden, motivations in

I am a clinical psychologist. I am available for individual, couples, and family therapy. My preference is to work with adolescents and older clients. I am culturally competent and have had great success working with clients regardless of background or lifestyle orientation. I am also comfortable addressing issues of spirituality, identity formation, and self-actualization.

I welcome and work with adults from all backgrounds and stages of life. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, engaged in anti-racist work, and approach my clients with empathy, nonjudgement, and respect for their strengths. As a former professor who left academia, I value supporting clients through big decisions, school or career stress, and life transitions. I view mental health difficulties such as anxiety, depression, burnout, and trauma as responses to individual, social, and environmental factors, rather than 'personal' issues. Consequently, I help clients make changes in their own habits, their relationships, and their wider contexts.

I work with adolescents, adults, couples and families on a range of things, from family and relationship issues to life transitions, depression and anxiety, grief, larger existential questions, and other things. A particular focus is helping people in crisis manage and make meaning from difficulties. My approach to therapy is supportive, relational, and client-centered, with a focus on how things manifest themselves in the here and now. More than anything, I try to create a safe space for tuning in to feelings, finding balance, healing, and working on change.

I'm so busy, I'm overwhelmed, I'm so burned out, I have a lot going on right now. If you have ever used one or more of the previous statement therapy may be for you. I work with clients to explore ways in which stress, anxiety, and burnout impact our lives and how we can navigate them successfully. I strive to meet the needs of each client in the areas of anxiety, depression, grief/loss, imposter syndrome, lgbtqia+ issues, self esteem, racial/ ethnic identity concerns, social justice, and trauma. I love helping people step in their greatness.

Taking the first step to get help can be a very tough decision. Many people who consider starting therapy may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, exhausted, ashamed, or hopeless. My practice focuses on helping those who have experienced trauma heal in a safe, secure, compassionate, and supportive environment. I use evidenced-based and evidence-informed practices that have been known to help others, like you, experience relief from the effects of trauma. My goal as your therapist is to understand, nurture, and leverage your innate strengths and resources in the healing process and restore balance to your system.
