Anxiety Therapists in Apex, NC

I have come to understand that one size does not fit all. I am theoretically psychoanalytic but technically eclectic. I specialize in the treatment of trauma, chronic pain, addictions, anxiety and relationships with the goal of healing the client's relationship within themselves and with others. We will work through your past hurt and anger. If you have been hurt or feel isolated, alone or stuck in the same repetitive, negative patterns or relationships there is a solution. We will work together to create the best approach for you.

At times navigating life can be difficult and feel overwhelming. My passion lies in walking with you to gain insight, understand and solve problems, clarify values, and find more balance in life. I value the uniqueness of each person, which helps build on your strengths, self-acceptance, and healing. I strive to empower you to be self-compassionate as you journey through vulnerability and discomfort to reach a more fulfilling and meaningful life experience.

Reaching out and asking for help can sometimes be a daunting task, & if you have found yourself ready to make that first phone call, you have done the hardest part. The stressors of life, coupled with issues we may have faced in the past, or are currently facing today may hinder us on the road to a happy and fulfilled life. The issues we face can have an impact on all facets of our lives, from our interpersonal relationships, our work, our spirituality, and overall mental and physical wellbeing.

**NOT TAKING NEW CLIENTS CURRENTLY** Welcome, friend! I am so glad you found your way here. Recognizing that you need help along your journey toward healing and wellness is one of the hardest yet bravest steps, so I invite you in this moment to be proud of yourself. Perhaps you have landed on this site because you feel disconnected—disconnected from your emotions, your body, your relationships, the world itself.

Do you worry? How could you not, the world is a mess! Worrying doesn’t help anything, doesn’t fix or make life better, if anything, it makes you feel more alone. If you have experienced severe anxiety and panic attacks, you know that it shows up in so many different ways to distract you from feeling what you really need to feel, and it can completely take over your life. In response to your worrying, you may emotionally eat or push down your emotions so far down that your lie to others and yourself by continuing to say, “I’m fine”. You have buried it under a lot of shame, guilt, and beliefs system that no longer serve you.
