Therapists in Apex, NC
Life doesn’t come with a manual — and even if it did, it probably wouldn’t account for your unique story, struggles, and strengths. Maybe you’re feeling stuck in anxious thoughts, weighed down by grief, or overwhelmed by the day-to-day. Or maybe you’re just not feeling like yourself, and you’re not sure where to begin. That’s okay — you don’t have to figure it out alone.

I’m originally from Ohio where I attended college and began my counseling practice. I worked in Dallas, TX and Wilmington, NC before settling in Apex, NC. Clients who I see are typically having a hard time with at least one important life issue. They are feeling overwhelmed which is impacting most other parts of their lives. They want to think, feel and do better and that’s what I help them do.

Treatment with me will provide a balance of a non-judgmental, client-centered approach while also challenging individuals to reach their highest potential. I take a biopsychosocial approach to treatment and understand the importance of treating the whole individual rather than just a small part.

If you feel anxious, alone, sad or “stuck” in a negative cycle and want to break free, there is hope. Theoretically, I am an attachment/analytic based therapist but I realize one size does not fit all. I treat anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, and relationships with individuals who may be yearning to feel more fulfillment in life.
Connecting to a sense of safety is the first step in true healing. We will work together at your pace to draw connections from past to present to free you from merely surviving to truly living with a greater sense of purpose, joy and hope for the future.

Accepting New Clients Now Immediate Availability: So often it seems we're our own worst critic and worst enemy. Well intentioned friends and family members may try to help by reassuring us, but their words can seem distant and hollow, particularly when we are so acutely aware of our own failings. I have specific interest and expertise in treating clinical depression, I help individuals address behavioral, personality and growth issues related to anxiety and depression, and support those seeking to change habits. I am skilled at helping people understand dreams and resolving ambivalence surrounding a goal.

I'm a North Carolina native raised in the Christian church. I enjoy exploring nature, front porch sitting, hanging out with my old dog, kitty and chickens! Music has always been a source of comfort and way of processing my own emotions. Learning to play the acoustic guitar, tending to my house plants and taking beach trips are my favorite therapeutic activities. I also volunteer as a YoungLife CoIlege leader in Raleigh! I strive to connect with others and my gift of empathy seems to be a grace God has given me early on. I value truly authentic and safe relationships and try to give to others what I prize so much myself!
