Codependency Therapists in Raleigh, NC

I am licensed in 11 states and offer evening and weekend appointments to meet you hectic scheduling needs. I strive to be different than other therapists and will go above and beyond to customize therapy just for you, so your therapy experience will be one that focuses on your goals and desires without fear of judgement or expressing yourself with someone that truly "gets it." I have worked with patients 3-83 years old and I am passionate about taking you from where you are to where you want to be in life. Feel free to reach out via phone, email, or text to learn more about my therapy services.

While I no longer accept new clients, I have a full clinical team located in Raleigh and Wake Forest, as well as a team that offers teletherapy to clients throughout the State of North Carolina. Please my website to learn more about these counselors.

Relationships require work. You may be working hard, but if that work is destructive -- such as excessive conflict, worry, negativity, blaming or guilt, these actions and thoughts are breaking down, not building, healthy relationships. I concentrate on developing and sustaining positive motivation and behavior. In therapy with me, couples and individuals can expect thoughtful, knowledgeable support and direct guidance to make your work constructive. I will lend strength when needed, and, will just as quickly 'call you' on counterproductive behavior. This is a dynamic process.

I like to meet a client where he/she is in the moment. I use a biopsychosocial approach in a therapeutic setting. I am interested in the person as a whole...their emotional issues, their physical concerns, their family and social networks. I primarily treat people with depression, anxiety, and post traumatic stress disorder. I use a psychodynamic theoretical model to formulate an understanding of clients' symptoms and draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, short term solution focused, and trauma based treatment techniques. I enjoy working with clients who are curious about their behavior and who are willing to engage in creative solutions to problems.

If you are in a relationship with a Narcissist, have experienced major and/or minor trauma, can't find the right relationship, don't know what to do to make your relationships better, or want to find greater success in life or business, then I may be the right person to help you move from coping to thriving. I provide coaching/therapy solutions to navigate the treacherous journey of leaving a Narcissist as well as overcoming adversity and psychological blocks that keep you from attaining your goals. I can help you deal with all of life's normal developmental concerns like work, having children, parenting and growing older.

I work with adolescents and adults to help alleviate suffering, enhance growth, and teach skills that foster positive changes. I operate from a trauma-informed lens recognizing that traumatic impact underpins many mental health struggles. My area of focus includes challenges associated with ADHD, anxiety, grief, depression, attachment, adoption, and interpersonal relationships. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associated (LCSWA) in the State of North Carolina.

I am not taking new clients. Are you struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, work-life balance, relationship distress, or parenting? I can help. Or maybe with life transitions such as marriage, divorce, changing jobs, or adjusting through the changes of adolescence into adulthood? I can help. I can help as you take your life in directions that feel positive and healthy. I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor, in private practice since 2006. I work with adults, emerging adults, and adolescents. I encourage your own personal empowerment and growth through a counseling relationship built on trust, respect, and compassion.

They say quarter-life crises don't exist, but you don't know what else to call it. You are over-thinking every decision, attempting to please everyone in your life, and barely taking care of yourself. You feel numb and lost, and you're not sure where to go from here. Everyone around you seems to move on with their lives while you stumble through. You're ready to take control and start living your life on your terms.

Is it hard just to make it through each day? Like everything is a struggle, and you’re not sure how much longer you can keep pretending it’s all fine? You don’t have the lust for life that you used to, and everything feels a bit “blah”. You can't talk about it with your family or friends without worrying them or being dismissed. You're noticing these things are negatively impacting your life, relationships, or performance at work. You feel unhappy, angry, or disconnected to people in your life and the world around you. Maybe you know what changes you want to see, but you don't even know where to start. It all feels so daunting.

My fourteen years experience has lead me to work with many clients who are dealing with many different stressors in their life. These stressors have led to anxieties, depression, relationship issues, etc. My main areas of speciality include anxiety, depression, ADHD (therapy and coaching), and relationship issues. Together, we share the responsibility for progress and improved ways of coping. Ultimately, you will be able to build a sense of personal satisfaction in knowing that when future challenges arise they will be less overwhelming.
