Codependency Therapists in Charlotte, NC
If you’re carrying anxiety, trauma, relationship stress or feeling unsure about your next steps in life, my goal is to offer a supportive, judgment-free space where you can feel heard, respected, and actively involved, while also gaining practical tools to create real change. I work with all ages as well as families and couples. My approach is person-centered, warm, and relational, while also being direct, evidence-based, and holistic. I draw from CBT, DBT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy, using an integrative approach tailored to each client’s unique needs rather than a one-size-fits-all model.

Women face many challenges in life. We work hard to balance the expectations of our career, our home life and our relationships. As women we often put ourselves last as we focus on the needs of others.

If you are a woman and are experiencing anxiety, depression, shame or guilt - I am here to help. I enjoy helping women see their strengths, teach them tools and help them find hope and resilience.

You understand yourself deeply- but still find yourself stuck in the same painful patterns. Many of my clients are insightful and self-aware, yet find themselves in relationships that feel one-sided or unclear. They may feel unseen or overlooked, while also holding back their truth to maintain connection. You might notice cycles of overthinking, emotional shutdown, or pushing through at your own expense. Even after years of growth, something still isn’t shifting. I welcome individuals and couples of diverse identities and relationship structures, including LGBTQ+ and non-monogamous clients.

My passion for therapy comes from seeing family members, friends, and peers go through life transitions and hardships. We all have dark days, and sometimes we need someone to hold the candle for us when we have lost the will to hold it for ourselves. Our values, beliefs, culture, and life experiences make us who we are. When those initial beliefs no longer work to maintain our daily lives, we begin to feel stuck. I can provide a calming, safe space to help you get unstuck, and become a better version of yourself.

What we know for sure is that life is beautifully complex. No one can avoid new challenges, life transitions, pain or conflict. While past experiences influence the present, what happens to you does not have to dictate your overall quality of life. Emotional wellness requires dedicated attention and a commitment to being and doing better. When we begin to see challenges as purposeful moments urging us to learn, heal, grow and evolve, we can begin to accept, and even honor, our circumstances. How do you do that? Well, my goal is to empower you by providing guidance, tools and insights to lead a mentally and emotionally healthy life.
