Transgender Therapists in Charlotte, NC
I work with teens, young adults, and adults who are struggling with meeting their goals, maintaining healthy relationships, identity issues, and navigating the transitions and stressors life throws. I also enjoy working with couples who have hit road blocks and need guidance and a third party perspective. My approach is interpersonal and I offer a space for clients to gain feedback and accountability through the development of a strong therapeutic alliance. I lead an adult Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) group and incorporate skills training into my practice.

On the outside it looks like you have it all together, but inside you're engaged in a constant struggle for control. Your anxiety, OCD, and/or eating disorder has taken over your life. You find yourself in a constant loop of feeling worried, nervous, stressed and at times not good enough, thin enough, or smart enough. You’re stuck and unable to find the relief that you crave, so you try temporary fixes. Sometimes you disconnect and avoid people and your responsibilities, sometimes you binge, sometimes you purge, and sometimes you try to use anything that will distract your mind. You find, however, that your mind just wont turn off.

Are you going through a life change or transition and feel lost? Or maybe you just don't feel like yourself right now? Reaching out for help can be difficult, and in my experience, no human being can navigate these seasons of life alone. I am passionate about working with teenagers (ages 12+), young adults, and adults who are going through significant life changes, struggling with high-functioning anxiety (look fine on the outside but inside are exhausted and anxious), and those who would like to cultivate a more evolved version of themselves.
