Therapists for Teens and Adolescents in Durham, NC
For the past five years, I have worked as a mental health therapist, serving teens and adults with mood disorders, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, AD/HD, and other conditions.
Are you struggling to cope with difficult emotions? Whether you're dealing with mental health issues or life changes, I am here to help. Finding a therapist who is a good fit is a bit like making a friend. So here’s some information about my therapy style: it is down-to-earth, empathetic, and honest. For me, it is important to create a non-judgmental and supportive environment where clients can process emotions, problem-solve, and learn new skills. As an intersectional feminist, I strive to make my therapy space safe and welcoming for the LGBTQ+ community, people of color, neurodivergent individuals, and other marginalized groups.

Tired of having to explain or defend yourself, or your existence, to those who just don’t get it? I see you. Feeling crushed by the weight of everything going on right now — sociopolitical stressors and related bullshit, family stress, relationship challenges? Are you tired of feeling alone, scared, or unsupported as you try to navigate it all?
Or maybe you are a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and seeking a real therapist who just gets it - no explaining necessary.
Maybe you and your partner are stuck in a pattern that leaves you feeling disconnected and frustrated with each other, and exhausted with the universe.

I conduct psychological evaluations for adults, youth, and families.
Psychological evaluations can help with many kinds of personal, legal, or emotional issues. Evaluations require careful assessment, respectful investigation, and a clear report for decision-making. I also believe evaluations should appreciate individual differences as well as sources of oppression and trauma; my assessments are all trauma-informed.

Today there is so much that demands our attention that we can get lost in the daily struggles. We may become overwhelmed with fears, anxiety, stress, depression, and lose confidence; even when in reality we may be doing life well but not seeing clearly. I believe to different degrees we all have at some point or other. I know I certainly have.
Having come from a personal background of abandonment, neglect, and all types of abuse I understand life isn't always easy. Sometimes we need someone to help us in the journey. I know I sure have and I am thankful they were there as I needed them.
