Therapists in Charlotte, NC

Overthinking, constant worry, low self-esteem or lots of self-doubt, maybe an intense fear of something in the world like germs or social interactions- I help adults with all of these issues. I'm a licensed mental health counselor and I specialize in treating individuals from age 18-99 dealing with anxiety, depression, phobias, obsessions/compulsions, and trauma. I do this using an IFS-informed lens and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization (EMDR) to guide clients to meaningful change.

I bring over a decade of experience to my practice, where I work with a wide range of struggles. I bring special expertise to self-image/self-esteem issues, trauma, and grief. As a holistic practitioner, I don’t limit my focus to treating symptoms or replacing behaviors. I work with body, spirit, heart, and gut, offering a space where you can step into a transformed relationship with yourself. I go underneath strategies and tools to help you develop inner resources, listen to your body and nervous system, let go of what no longer serves you, and bring new energy and clarity to your most important connections.

Life can be full of tough seasons. Perhaps you aren't where you envisioned yourself at this stage, are struggling with self-esteem, or just wish you felt happier. As a therapist, my greatest passion is providing a fresh perspective and working with clients as they learn to navigate these challenges and build resilience. I will support you through life transitions and help you feel less stuck and stressed out.

I see anyone who is ready to change his or her life. My ideal clients are individuals who are unsure of their future, perceive themselves negatively, and lack the confidence in themselves and the decisions they make. They want change, but are unsure of how to implement change.

Coping with life's stressors and uncertainties can be a huge undertaking. No matter what obstacles you are facing, know that you have the ability to conquer them. You should also know that you do not have to face your circumstances alone and that you deserve to live a fulfilling and rewarding life. The bravery and courage you are displaying by reading this is a big step in the right direction. Therapy can help you determine your next step. If you are ready to step out of "stuckness" into "wellness," you are encouraged to contact my office.

​My training and education makes me a good fit for individuals, families, and couples experiencing depression, anxiety, self-esteem, family conflict, trauma, grief, life stressors and parenting. Many of my clients tend to be women aged 29 to 55 seeking change in their lives - however, I also enjoy working with men, particularly if they have never done therapy before.

Are you struggling with your marriage, children or family? Is anxiety, depression or trauma keeping you from living the life you know you can have? I specialize in helping clients who are suffering from depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma and family issues. Depending on what the client needs are, we will utilize a holistic approach which focuses on mind (talk therapy, Myers-Briggs Type), body (health, wellness, fitness) and soul (meditation, yoga, and spiritual issues).

My goal with my clients is to help them gain control of their life again. Stress may never be completely eliminated but you are capable of being in the driver seat and I would love to show you how. I have experience working with a variety of communities such as those with severe mental illness, victims of sexual assault among other populations. I presently enjoy guiding children, adolescents and adults to a healthy pattern of thinking and behavior in order to manage anxiety, depression, OCD, self-esteem, trauma, relational/boundary concerns and other mental health diagnoses.

Have you been struggling with depression or low self esteem to the point of hating yourself? Maybe you've been struggling with this for years and can't imagine not dealing with it. Do you have horrible memories from your past that you try your best to ignore but they always seem to seep their way into your brain? It's not your fault that you have trauma, but you may sometimes feel like it is. What about obsessive, anxious thoughts that you can't get our of your head? They might even be causing you to act in a way that doesn't feel like you.

Licensed in MA & NC. Accepting BCBS for NC residents only. I truly believe that empowered people can face any challenge that comes their way.

I want to help my clients grow and walk away from therapy feeling that they have transformed.

Therapy is for everyone. Life is beautiful, but it can also be brutal. We all go through times in our lives where talking it out with a friend or meditating just doesn't cut it. Whether you are experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, or just feeling stuck in life, I'm here for you. I'll walk alongside you on this journey to help you identify your strengths and coping strategies to help you move forward. We'll also detangle the threads of your past and help you make sense of the story of your life. We'll talk about your childhood trauma as well as what's going on in the present - and how these things interact.
