Adoption Therapists in Gastonia, NC

I am available to work with clients who are experiencing depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, relationship discord, effects of chronic medical conditions and chronic stress, fertility/ adoption issues and career/life direction questions. I take a practical, skills-based approach, collaborating with clients to incorporate information from past and present toward more effective functioning. My outlook is holistic, attending to the physical and spiritual/meaning realms as well as the cognitive, emotional and behavioral ones. I have a warm and friendly manner and I enjoy working with people as they identify and achieve their goals.

Hey There! I am a goal oriented counselor and love working with clients who are ready to for change in their lives. Sometimes reaching goals can take a few sessions and a couple of years- there is no wrong way to heal. I am a strong believer in self love, compassion, and encouraging clients to seek fun in their lives. My ultimate goal in my client's healing journey is they get to the other side of their healing and find meaning in their struggle.

The events that happen are not intended to be permanent, but instead are part of our journey. It is our story being written and we have the ability to choose the next chapter. The path of life can have difficult times, often with unexpected twists and turns. When this occurs, it can be beneficial to have someone walk with you through the challenging times. My clients are motivated to write their own story, to have someone support them but to work towards empowerment, self-confidence, internal peace, and ultimate healing. My clients know their past does not define them but instead empower them to be the best they can be!

I have been passionate about helping children, adults, and families since I was an adolescent. During therapy, I accept you for who you are and I appreciate and understand that everyone is unique. I provide an empathetic, understanding, and honest voice to soothe and support you through our therapy sessions. While I am working with you, I become inspired by seeing you break through barriers and grow within your progress by achieving the goals you set for yourself. It is a privilege and honor to come alongside you, as you navigate the uncertainty and pain that often comes as a result of individual lived experiences.

Everyone faces challenges in life that can feel overwhelming and can impact us in very significant and unique ways. Has depression, anxiety, anger, or stress become seemingly insurmountable to the point that it impacts your daily functioning? Have you noticed a change in your eating or sleeping habits, in your relationships or desire to interact with others? If this is how life feels to you right now, its time to seek help and guidance. You don't have to face this on your own and assistance begins with a phone call or email.
