Therapists in Durham, NC

I specialize in helping you navigate through life's challenges, learn how to be more aware of your thoughts, feelings, emotions, surroundings, situations, & to reduce automatic responses. My clients are often experiencing stressors related to burnout, life transitions, life stagnation, relationships, perfectionism, Imposter Syndrome, high achievement/striving, challenging family dynamics, & struggling with managing anxiety/depression symptoms, addictions, or just feeling "stuck".

I enjoy working with clients who seek to grow emotionally, relationally and spiritually. I believe therapy is an opportunity to come alongside others to help them heal and grow. I am relational in my approach. I believe that people have been broken in relationships and that we are healed in the context of relationships. Over the past 19 years I have had many clients reach their goals and experienced transformation through the counseling process. There is no greater privilege than being able to walk beside people in their healing journey. Evening and weekday appointments available. Contact me via phone, text or email.

Do you struggle to get your needs met in your relationships? Perhaps you try repeatedly and fail to achieve harmony? I have a special interest in working with individuals experiencing unhappiness in their important relationships. When my clients first come in, they may feel they are doing the heavy lifting and hope that things will change. Their relationship dissatisfaction gets in the way of the life they want in so many ways. They aren’t the person they strive to be according to their values. They feel like they are failing as a partner and in life. Greater self-confidence and fulfillment are attainable.

Hello and welcome! I’m a queer therapist with over 13 years experience treating and teaching about trauma. I am direct (no more “nod and smile” therapist stereotype!). I am loving. And I believe active listening involves more than asking "...and how does that make you feel?" I use transparency in my approach, because I believe this allows for the most effective exploration of oneself in relationship to others. I offer individual therapy rooted in internal family systems, attachment and polyvagal theories to curious, compassionate adults who are motivated to heal.

I know getting started can be hard. My goal is to help you feel as comfortable as possible so we can go at your pace. I specialize in working with clients with anxiety, ADHD, and trauma. Many of my clients have tried to cope with their situations by pushing their feelings away or using addictive behaviors to numb them. My job is to help people listen to and manage their emotions without feeling overwhelmed or ruled by them. Being personally in recovery from alcohol helps me understand and empathize with what you’re going through because I’ve probably been there too.

In times of great vulnerability, mind-body awareness, self-compassion and insight guide the way to healing, self-empowerment and renewed purpose. We all carry these capacities within. My approach combines evidence-based clinical, holistic and mindfulness-based methodologies grounded in the leading-edge neuroscience of emotional wellbeing and personal growth. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, post-traumatic symptoms, grief and loss, sleep dysregulation, major life and career transitions, clinician and caregiver chronic stress, end-of-life and psycho-spiritual integration.

I believe for a person to thrive one MUST first be willing to examine themselves and be courageous enough to take the necessary steps to heal.

"Healing is not the absence of the storm. Healing is the way we ride it." In life, each of us may face storms that test our resilience and spirit. Whether you come from a diverse background or any other, these challenges can feel overwhelming and isolating. Finding a haven of understanding and support is essential - You are not meant to navigate this journey alone. As a dedicated LCSW with over 9 years of expertise, I've been privileged to support individuals through their most challenging times - be it depression, anxiety, grief, chronic pain/illness, or life transitions.

I am a clinical social worker with a passion for helping individuals overcome challenges related to anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I understand that these issues can be deeply impactful and can affect every aspect of our lives. Therefore, my goal as a therapist is to provide a compassionate and supportive environment where we can work together to find healing, growth, and resilience.

Exhausted by your loud inner critic? Overwhelmed by your neverending to-do list?

Trying to be the perfect friend, perfect professional, or perfect partner all at once is exhausting. Maybe there's a deeper wound that hasn't healed yet. Perhaps you dream of feeling fulfilled, calm, & confident. To say "no" and actually mean it. To stop playing small & launch that creative idea. If you want to stress less & live authentically without fear or guilt, I’d love to help you step into your power.

We all have learned to walk through this world with a certain degree of guardedness and protection. Through a safe and gradual process, I assist people in letting down the walls that we formed to protect us.

You can safely begin to open, become vulnerable, and get in touch with what you desire. Together, we discover how you can live in a more authentic way in your life. Freedom and happiness are attainable in this world!
