MedCost Therapists in Sanford, NC
I work with folx who have long felt out of step with the world—neurodivergent individuals, those exploring their identity, or anyone carrying trauma, isolation, or self-doubt. I believe your experiences matter and deserve to be held with care, and you should not have to shrink yourself to fit expectations. Many come to me seeking safety, understanding, and freedom to explore who they truly are. Together, we uncover the meanings within your story so you can reconnect with your identity, trust your voice, reclaim who you are, and move toward a life that feels authentic and whole.

Not accepting new clients
I am trained to provide Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, and I am completing certification to ensure highest quality care. I also integrate techniques from Motivational Interviewing (MI), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I often support clients with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma related issues, and more. However, I view presenting symptoms as expressions of unmet needs rather than comprehensive static labels. My approach is flexible, grounded in mutual trust and respect, and based on individual needs in recognition of the person beneath the symptoms.
