Therapists in Asheville, NC

I can help you find more balance, manage stress, and find more satisfaction in your life. I will help you articulate your aspirations, create action plans to achieve your life goals, and hold you accountable. I want to help you to create a life that is fulfilling, meaningful, and joyful. My style is enthusiastic, direct, and fun! I will push you out of your comfort zone, support you when you stumble, and celebrate your successes along the way as you start living the life you want and deserve. I often incorporate wholistic wellness practices into my sessions as well as mindfulness techniques.

Finding the right therapist for you is a primary factor in whether or not your therapy will be successful. I believe in creating a relaxed, non-judgmental atmosphere where people feel safe to explore painful feelings and negative thoughts/behaviors. My approach includes a balance of support and challenge. My goal is to bring warmth, humor, and an interactive style to our sessions. I do not believe in "one size fits all," and therefore, I strive to create an experience that is unique to you based on your individual needs and goals for therapy. My work is grounded in current research/education on mental health and well-being.

Insomnia, OCD, difficult life transitions, and anxiety and mood disorders are Kathleen’s main focus. She enjoys working with adults who need additional support in tackling issues that are getting in the way of the life they would like to lead.

Therapy can be hard, regardless if this is your first time seeking help or if you’ve had some experience in treatment. Sometimes we may feel our lives are so complicated that we don’t even know where to start. If you’re finding yourself overwhelmed or lost, it might be time to allow yourself to be supported and prioritized. I’d be honored to help you identify and initiate action towards the valuable life you strive to live. I have three years of experience helping teens and adults identify and adopt healthier patterns of thinking and feeling to improve their quality of life and relationships.

Life can be wonderful, but it can also be messy and difficult at times. I work with people who face a variety of challenges, including anxiety, depression, life changes, and concern over climate change. I believe that every person is unique, and I bring respect for that uniqueness into the therapeutic relationship. I am continually fascinated at the complexity, creativity, and resiliency of people. It is my hope that my clients feel genuinely valued and gain further understanding of themselves and their behaviors through the collaborative exploratory work we do together. Then a new way of living becomes possible.

We live in a world that doesn’t often have the space to hear our pain, and yet, working through our stories and experience can bring us healing. Many of us have experienced grief and loss, through death, chronic or terminal illness, loss of relationships, jobs, and burnout from working on the frontlines, and so much more. That is my work as a therapist; to bring my clinical experience, skills, and training to help people live meaningful lives while working through grief and loss. My approach to therapy is compassionate, empowering, strengths-based, trauma-informed, and culturally sensitive.

I focus primarily on work with adolescents experiencing anxiety and depression or struggling with self-esteem as well as their families who are experiencing life transitions, parenting difficulties, and relationship concerns.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Clinician with a Master’s in School Counseling from Lenoir-Rhyne University. My background focuses on the use of person-centered therapy, reality therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I am also rostered in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which is an evidenced-based practice centered on aiding individual in recovering from and understanding the traumatic events that have occurred in their lifetime. I believe that we all need support in various ways, and one most important piece is a systemic approach via our families or other outside members key to our success.

Do you need support wading through the bullshit of life? I’m here for that! I work with folks who find themselves repeating the same unhealthy relationship patterns due to unhealed childhood trauma or attachment wounds. I love helping people set healthy boundaries and heal their inner child to become more confident and happy with their lives. I want to help you lose that guilt and shame that is preventing you from seeing the incredible person you are.

I believe in the wisdom of our own unfolding and in the power of the therapeutic relationship to provide safe space for deep inner listening and healing. Whether you are seeking counseling because of acute pain, are feeling stuck, or long to uncover your greatest avenue for growth, I welcome the opportunity to partner with you and provide a container as we work towards your goals. My purpose is to help clients live more connected and authentic lives, lives which are in integrity with who you truly are.

My calling is to journey alongside women that have experienced abuse, domestic violence, addiction or other painful experiences and watch them come into their own power and regain trust and confidence in becoming their most resilient and authentic selves. Your anxious feelings of the unknown and depressing feelings of past experiences have been hurdles for you to climb as you maneuver your way from surviving to thriving in life. You’ve felt a loss of hope for your future. Perhaps you’ve experienced a glimmer of hope from time to time and know it exists, but struggle to hang on for fear of falling.

There are so many different approaches and therapists out there, it can be really overwhelming to find the right fit. It takes a lot of energy and courage to then reach out to a therapist to start this process of recovery. I get it, it's tough, but it's worth it. We all want to get to the other side where we are able to manage the ups and downs the way we envision, but because of negative feelings and events, sometimes we get stuck from making that connection, which is why therapy can be helpful to support moving forward.

Do you feel as if your mind is constantly spinning? Are you avoiding or running from emotions and thoughts? Are you simply doing and not living? You are finally ready to unpack distressing things from your past. It has become clear that your past is not buried but may be contributing to your current feelings and experiences. Do you wish those old patterns would change for the better? Your way forward seems to be full of setbacks and you may have trouble moving forward. Looking at others you envy how easy their lives seem. You are a brave soul to be here and desire for things to be different. Now is the time.

I am a holistic practitioner of psychodynamic and somatic psychology who strives to help people gain confidence, fulfillment and joy in their daily lives. I offer a safe and collaborative space for my clients to discover their inner strength and connect to their own amazing spirits. The very symptoms for which we seek treatment have served some purposes, and together we shall discover the gifts therein. The empowerment gained from these insights create a rippling effect which can transcend every aspect of one’s lives.

Marriage is fucking hard. I heard a quote recently where someone asked the secret to making marriage work. The response was, “We never wanted to get divorced at the same time.” Marriage can feel like a roller coaster. Then add the obstacles of children, work schedules and stress, and daily ups and downs and you may find yourself miles apart from your partner. What happened to the fun? What happened to the intimacy and connection? Where the hell did it go? It’s time to make your marriage the priority. It’s time to reconnect and reignite the fire that was once there. It is possible to salvage and repair what has been broken.

We are booking intakes within 2 weeks! At Asheville Testing, we specialize in conducting three different types of evaluations: 1) Advanced ADHD Assessments, 2) learning disability or gifted evals, and 3) custodial evaluations. When evaluating ADHD, dyslexia or other learning challenges, we use neuropsychological tests that measure the building blocks of memory, learning, and self-regulation.

I help folks to connect with their inner wisdom and begin living from a place of strength and empowerment. Together, we work to explore thoughts, feelings and relationship patterns that may be obstacles to living the life you want. My passion for this work grew from working through my own trauma and grief. Experience has taught me that happiness and fulfilling relationships are within reach. You will find that the space I create is safe, supportive and non-judgmental.
