Teletherapy for Ashbrook-Clawson Village - Charlotte, NC

It is miserable to feel stuck. Stuck in the past, stuck in moving forward, stuck in depression or anxiety. We all want to feel a sense of purpose, and that we can live fully in the present and have a vision for the future, no matter our circumstances. There are a number of things that can make us feel stuck, such as trauma, unresolved grief, regrets, shame, broken relationships, and a fear of failure. Sometimes couples feel stuck in working through difficult issues and the resulting anger and hurt. We all go through these times in our lives and may come to a point when we realize that we need some help to move forward.

The decision to come to therapy can be scary. There are so many unknowns, especially if you have never done this before. I am here to stand and walk with you through every step of the process of change and healing- It gets better. My goal in my relationship with you is to make sure that you feel safe and comfortable enough to be yourself.

Therapy can feel like a scary step to take. Even more it can be a struggle to just share one's needs/stories. Which is why Diego and I work with each of our Clients in making that fear go away and assisting everyone in feeling comfortable and at ease. One of the first priorities I focus on is working with that fear, that uncomfortable feeling--It Gets Better. Diego is an amazing asset to this team as he will provide comfort to those who experience anxiety during therapy. He can provide decompression for those working through trauma or those experiencing sensory challenges.

Are you looking for a therapist who can help you create a more authentic and hope-filled life? Look no further! With over 35 years of experience, I have helped countless individuals overcome their struggles and achieve their goals. At my practice, I specialize in depth psychology, which promotes the idea that we all have untapped inner resources for healing. So, our dreams, then, can be a powerful tool for unlocking the unconscious mind and the treasures hidden within. By listening deeply to the images and symbols in our dreams, we can uncover essential truths about your life, gaining insight into your deepest desires and fears.

I enjoy working with clients from all ages, cultures and backgrounds. I believe mental wellness is an essential part of living a balanced and full life.

C&FD psychologists are experienced diagnosticians and practitioners. Our counselors provide a range of services including play therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and parent coaching. We have a developmental and behavioral pediatrician on staff who provides medication management. We specialize in children, adolescents, young adults, and parents. Common concerns include emotion regulation and behavioral problems, anxiety, ADHD, and ASD.

When stress and anxiety build up we can lose sight of our greatest strengths - and downplay our innate ability to overcome adversity. Working with a counselor can help you see yourself and your situation through a different lens. Anxiety, depression, stress - these conditions can narrow our perception, leaving us unable to find paths to better mental health.

I work primarily with those who are battling depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). If this is you, you are not alone. Estimates of those who fight this battle every day are as high as 40 million or 18.1% of adults annually.

Life can be full of tough seasons. Perhaps you aren't where you envisioned yourself at this stage, are struggling with self-confidence, or aren't as happy as you feel you should be. As a therapist, my greatest passion is providing a fresh perspective and working with clients as they learn to navigate these challenges and build resilience. I will support you through life transitions and help you feel less stuck and stressed out.
