Therapists in Sylva, NC

I currently am not taking new clients. We all, at times, can benefit from walking with a special companion on this journey; someone who is not part of our everyday life, who has skills and experience to bring us insight and comfort. Sometimes our families, friends, or coworkers don't feel like a safe place to turn. My desire is to provide a space for understanding, healing, and hope so that you can begin to experience more fully, who you are and the beauty of your story. I see adults that struggle with anxiety, depression and life transitions challenges.

Hi! I’m so glad you are here. My name is Thuy and I believe that as humans, we are deserving of kindness, compassion, and empathy. It is the foundation of the work that I do and I look forward to the possibility of working alongside you. Whether you are simply needing space for yourself, looking to heal your relationships, set boundaries, confront maladaptive and distressing patterns, or address and stabilize trauma, I will always hold space for you to feel seen, heard, and supported. I believe that true healing comes from finding the root causes to undesired emotions, thoughts, and behavior.

You are Welcome Here! Come on over and let’s talk – I’m here for you. It can be so hard to share the things that bother us the most, to talk through experiences that we’d rather not think about. It’s hard to believe talking and connecting can help us feel better, but I will partner with you to create change! Change can come from within and can be created with another, so let’s get started on your journey. We are going to find your strengths and apply them with practical steps and actions to make the positive changes you want to see.

Life is often full of unexpected twists, turns, and bumps that can leave us feeling uncertain about how to feel or move forward. Although it can seem dauting to take the steps to talk about these challenges, therapy can be an extremely rewarding tool to support validating your experiences and compassionately continuing that journey. My approach to therapy is that it involves understanding how our past impacts current feelings, behaviors, and patterns through a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship that supports positive change and healing. I also believe therapy needs to utilize humor and I enjoy having my dog join in as well.

I am best suited for clients who are ready to work on improving their quality of life. Sometimes we need to address the past, or the present, or our worries about the future. Maybe we are supporting young humans in growing and need some direction for the best ways to set limits and communicate. Regardless of the issue, therapy is a valuable experience and a great weapon to have in tackling both the large and small issues that come up in life.

Life can sometimes be overwhelming and we just don’t know how to move forward. Therapy provides a safe, supportive place to regroup, experience nonjudgmental support, and take back the control you have been searching for. While talking to someone can be uncomfortable and sometimes daunting, finding the right therapist that can guide and encourage you will help make lasting transformation in your life.

Life can feel exhausting when you are isolated, facing one stressor after another all while trying to live life as your authentic self. Many times people feel stuck when a major life event happens or when life is not turning out as you imagined. The stressful event may interfere with your day to day life at home, work, school or in your relationships. My job as a therapist is to guide and support you along the way. I will draw out your own insights and at times challenge you to confront things you may be avoiding or holding on to that keep you stuck. Proudly serving LGBTQ+ community. Neurodiversity affirming therapy.
