Obesity Therapists in Kings Mountain, NC

I am honored to be of service to you. I know that trauma and substance abuse and addiction can wreak havoc in one's life. Many of client's find themselves faced with challenges of having to restart their lives during mental challenges and addiction; some may have to fight to regain custody of their children; many of them have co-occurring mental illness that has lead to substance abuse and/or addiction. For some, addiction comes by way of biological, environmental, and social influences, but from my experience, I have learned that mental illness was present before addiction became a factor.

Take the time to invest in yourself through therapy. For well over a decade, I have been honored to work with people from all walks of life. I have found that growth comes when we slow down and invest time in exploring our own beliefs, relationships, and behaviors. Sometimes we need a guide to help make sense of that process: a therapist. For over a decade I have honed my skills in working with grief, trauma, life transitions, mood disorders, anxiety, disordered eating, obesity, caregiver stress, women's issues, and more. While I am trained and certified in various modalities, treatment is tailored to each patient's goals

I believe each person is an expert of his or her life. You already possess the tools within yourself to make positive changes. I will help you discover those tools and assist you in life transitions so that you may find your true self. Do you feel like you're on autopilot? Life got you stressed out and you're just going through the motions. We will work together to help you recognize any thoughts or maladaptive behaviors that can produce painful feelings, that can lead to unresolved issues. Together we will discover your choices along with therapeutic goals to help you reach your full potential.

My ideal client is someone who is dissatisfied with their current life and is ready to discuss making a change to live the life they wish to live.

I respect the courage that it takes to seek help when life's challenges become overwhelming. It is often a very painful place that can be difficult to share with another person. I am very sensitive to the fact that the first step can be the most difficult. I use a collaborative, compassionate approach with my clients. I rely on my knowledge and experience coupled with theoretical approaches to customize a plan for the individual situation. The goal is to work toward holistic balance.

I would love to be able to help you learn some new skills to cope with your concerns. By learning new skills, you will be able to apply them when you need them to meet not only your short term goals but your long term goals as well. I work with ages 14 and older. Some of theoretical orientations that I use are Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Radically Open DBT, Prolonged Exposure, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. I use a comprehensive approach to therapy and determine which method is best suited for each client.

Are you still figuring it all out? We all should be! Life is a journey full of personal growth, discovery, and healing. I have witnessed the powerful transformations and healing that occurs when the right therapeutic connection can happen. I am passionate about helping others engage more meaningfully in their lives. While working with me, you will have the space to explore how to change old patterns in your life, gain an understanding of why these patterns exist, and discover new ways of being in the world that fits in with your values.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. I specialize in creating a safe, non-judgmental environment for individuals, couples, and families to become emotionally stable as individuals and in their relationships. I love helping others take personal responsibility for self-growth, which flows over into their friendships, marriages, and family dynamics.

It's hard to focus on work and home when your thoughts are racing. Getting through the day without a meltdown has become a life goal. Isolating to avoid stress is automatic. And friends? Well, forget about that. There is no energy or desire to be around friends. Emotions like fear, shame, and loneliness have crushed important things like confidence, peace, and a sense of well-being. Now, since you are reading this I am going to assume that this isn't ok with you. I am going to go out on a limb and guess that you want something different. That's great, because that means that you are ready for change. I can help.

People seek therapy for a variety of reasons. Some are in crisis, others are at a turning point in their lives, many want to understand and change longstanding patterns that are self-defeating or unsatisfying.
