Bipolar Disorder Therapists in Downtown, Charlotte, NC

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, difficulty in relationships, low self-worth? Counseling can help you learn tools and coping skills to increase your ability to take back control of your emotions and feelings. Through working with me, you'll learn about communication skills, mindfulness techniques, ways to reduce anxiety and panic attacks. I work with adults - individuals and couples - to help you find ways to build a more positive and productive life.

Take a second and think, "What brought me here?" Are life's demands causing you added stress? Are you feeling a lack of control over the direction your life is heading? Do you feel like you are walking through life without actually living it? If you answered yes to any of these questions, counseling can help address your concerns and provide you with the skills and resources needed to feel better and thrive.

Have you ever not felt like yourself, but couldn't quite figure out why? What if I told you this feeling is normal as life has a funny way of soliciting a myriad of unwarranted and unrecognizable emotions while navigating the everyday stressors of life. While everyone's experiences are different, there appears to be this shared commonality amongst the human race during which at some point, you experience increase worry, decreased motivation, unexpected changes of mood, fluctuating energy levels, and changes with your sleep and appetite. If this sounds like you right now, I encourage you to keep reading...

I take a person-centered, motivational approach in my practices. I enjoy working with individuals to navigate every kind of challenge, whether they are personal, with family, or with peers. I recognize that you may not only need a cheerleader to celebrate the good, but also to help you push through difficult times. While I believe that pharmacology may be a necessary aid for many, I understands there may be concerns, and is also supportive of those who wish to seek healing through non-medicated means. I am willing to help you find the most appropriate and comfortable option.

It is miserable to feel stuck. Stuck in the past, stuck in moving forward, stuck in depression or anxiety. We all want to feel a sense of purpose, and that we can live fully in the present and have a vision for the future, no matter our circumstances. There are a number of things that can make us feel stuck, such as trauma, unresolved grief, regrets, shame, broken relationships, and a fear of failure. Sometimes couples feel stuck in working through difficult issues and the resulting anger and hurt. We all go through these times in our lives and may come to a point when we realize that we need some help to move forward.

Are you going through transitions in your life such as changing careers, getting married, having a baby, or going through a divorce?

The therapeutic journey is often a hard one to begin, but once started can be the most rewarding in life. It is one I have practiced both personally and professionally for over 30 years. I provide telehealth individual, couples and family therapy to a wide and varied demographic in an open and affirming approach. My practice is meant to be safe and accessible. Our recent world pandemic prompted many changes - a primary one was the ease and acceptability of connecting virtually. As a result my private practice is now entirely virtual, and I see clients on a secure, confidential platform with flexible hours.

I am a licensed psychotherapist with 29 years of experience. I believe our greatest healing emerges out of our deepest trauma, challenges and struggles. My belief is that we have a core that is unshakeable and I am committed to offering my clients a warm, respectful and non-judging space in which to explore and recognize their own resilience and restore balance in their daily lives.

We all have had experiences in our lives that have made us feel overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, alone or even broken. These experiences have caused a conflict within ourselves and have expanded to important areas of our lives. Adapting to these feelings is a challenge and reaching out for help is even more challenging. The key to healing, both emotional and psychological, is creating a relationship with ourselves and others that helps foster compassion and hope. Change is a process but taking this journey with someone, in a safe and non-judgmental space, allows for the mind to start the healing process.
