MedCost Therapists in Angier, NC
My ideal client is navigating the complex aftereffects of trauma, anxiety, or major life transitions. They may be survivors of domestic violence or struggle with self-worth and past suicidal thoughts. They need more than just a listener; they need a roadmap for healing using tools like CBT and EMDR. Their goal is to process the past to stop it from controlling their present. They want to reclaim their agency and potential because they know they deserve a life defined by peace, not pain. They are ready to do the work to find the strength lying dormant within them.

I work primarily with adolescents and adults. I have experience working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem and codependency issues, boundaries, grief, and phase of life adjustments. I use an integrative and individualized approach aimed at improving the quality of life of my clients by helping them find balance, learn coping skills, rediscover choice, decrease suffering, heal body image issues, increase self-esteem and create a life worth living.

4/13/26: Accepting NEW Clients! Many of my clients are high-performing, deeply empathetic individuals who have learned to mask their pain through perfectionism, people-pleasing, and over-functioning. They often come to me feeling burned out, disconnected from themselves, and unsure how to express their own needs after years of prioritizing others. In our work together, we’ll focus on rebuilding a relationship with your inner world, your emotions, your body, your history, and your voice. I bring a trauma-informed, somatic lens to healing, drawing on the mind-body connection to help you move from just surviving to truly living.

With over 30 years in private practice, I enjoy helping clients expand into a more positive identity with more personal power. Life issues include limiting difficulties such as co-dependence, anxiety, phobias, depression, relationship issues, post traumatic stress. Treatment focuses on moving forward to achieve full life potential. In general, traumatic responses decrease and clients have a reservoir of positive emotional energy to handle life issues. Specific issues include travel phobia, driving phobia; self-confidence, assertiveness. Clients become more autonomous and can live more fully.
