In Person Therapists in Wendell, NC
Thank you for visiting my page! I am interested in providing supervision to LCMHCA's. Although I have a few months of experience providing counseling to children (intensive in-home services) and about a year of experience in the community (working in a primary health care setting), the vast majority of my counseling experience (12 years and counting) is in higher education settings. I have practiced at a community college, embedded in an athletics program at an HBCU, and as an embedded counselor for a college of nursing, college of natural resources, and college of education.

Thank you for your interest in my practice! I am trained in the Transforming Touch modality. It is a Regulation-based approach rooted in the theory that when we experience ruptures during our developmental years, these disruptions continue to affect our lives at any age. These ruptures can be seen as challenges that are behavioral, psychological, spiritual and physical. Developmental Trauma affects every part of our growth and development. It orchestrates how we learn, how we mature, how we relate to others. Transforming Touch is an innovative way of supporting change in our nervous systems so that we can begin to hope and dream.

My co-therapist Beasley (pictured) allows for animal-assisted therapy in-office.
The poet Rumi said: "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." I'm committed to this metaphor for therapy- an open field that is a safe reprieve from outside stressful conditions. I am licensed as both Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist (LCAS), which enables me to diagnose and treat mental health issues, addiction and substance use disorders, and dual-diagnosis cases. It is important to me that each client is authentically respected with regards to their personal beliefs, cultural background, and every aspect of their identity.

You tell yourself you’re just being “cautious”… but the constant Googling, checking, and second-guessing is exhausting—and it still doesn’t make you feel any calmer. Something about your experience—your pregnancy, birth experience, or a loss—has stayed with you, even if others have moved on. On the outside, you’re holding it together. On the inside, you’re overthinking everything, bracing for the worst, and wondering why this feels so much harder than it “should.” You might not call it trauma… but something about what you went through still feels unresolved—and it keeps showing up in ways you can’t ignore.

I offer therapy in person or via telehealth, providing flexibility to meet your needs.

You are stronger than you think - and sometimes, all it takes is the right support to rediscover that strength. I love helping clients tap into their resilience as they navigate life’s challenges. My clients often share that they feel more empowered to overcome internal barriers and build more fulfilling relationships at home and at work. Through decades of experience with individuals from diverse backgrounds and many types of families, including adoptive and LGBTQ+ families, I’ve learned to listen deeply and tailor my approach to the unique needs of each person I work with.

“Connect before you correct” is a quote I've taken to heart since graduate school. I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor who believes that rapport is the foundation for change in any therapeutic relationship. I find enjoyment in providing a safe and accepting place for exploration, growth, and accountability. I have about 3 years of experience in outpatient therapy focused on anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, neurodivergence, and general mental health concerns with adults and teens. I have experience using play therapy for children focused on building social emotional skills through a creative (and fun!) lens.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.
When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.
How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
