Therapists Beginning With L in North Carolina

Now Accepting New Patients! How long have you been in pain? Have you been living with it so long that you don't remember how it started? Past and current damage can sabotage our attempts at living the life we deserve and prevent us from trusting others. Often before people enter therapy, they have tried many things to make changes in their lives in order to feel better. Nothing has worked- at least for long. Talking about your problems is not enough. I will help you identify destructive patterns that have interfered with your ability to enjoy life and replace them with healthy solutions.

I work with couples who have previously struggled with seeing improvement in other therapy or coaching services; BIPOC Couples; Interracial and Multicultural couples and individuals who experience a unique set of challenges; women who feel they’ve been pushed into the mold of who other's need them to be while struggling to identify their core self; men who've never had the space, energy or awareness to share the thoughts, feel the feelings and connect the dots; and therapists who've been everything to everybody, but have struggled in the area of self-care, burnout or achieving work/life balance.

Experiencing loss is an inevitable part of life - it happens to us all; loss of a loved one, job or career changes, or even health issues can create feelings of grief, decreased confidence and loneliness. Working to find a sense of 'normal' again, independence and contentment can be challenging when going it alone. Even with a great support system we can feel secluded in the feelings that we are experiencing but we don't have to; help is out there.

I use an eclectic counseling model of motivational interviewing, cognitive behavior therapy, psycho-dynamic therapy, and pastoral soul care as a way to address the cognitive blocks that may be causing you biological, psychological, social, and/or spiritual distress. I engage the mind,body and soul in the therapeutic process.

Choosing the right therapist can be a difficult decision; especially when they're working so closely with you or your child. You want someone who listens, understands and hears your concerns but is also supportive and nurturing. Let me begin by stating that I provide a safe environment where I incorporate empathy, encouragement, and laughter as part of the therapy process. But most importantly I believe in building a relationship with every person is the key to the healing process.

Emotions can be "scary," but I will help you unpack the heaviness of weighted emotions to feel lighter to live the life you imagined. I am optimistic that I can help you process and explore those emotions to develop healthy techniques further for “taking the control back” in situations. I'll collaborate with you to help you achieve your goals and understand your boundaries. I offer skills, strategies, and feedback to invite new ideas and change. By using mindful self-compassion and cognitive behavioral skills, I am hopeful that we quiet the hostile critic and work on being our biggest cheerleaders.

Traumatic experiences or challenging life events may leave you feeling confused, anxious, agitated, or numb.

Most of all, I understand that you want to possess the confidence and skills to redefine your life. Clients seeking services want to establish a sense of safety, develop a sense of power, and gain the ability to reconnect with others.
