Therapists in Charlotte, NC

I offer services in English and Spanish! Ofrezco servicios en inglés y español! There are times for all of us when we feel helpless or powerless over our situation. I'm here for those moments to walk alongside you - not in front, behind, or to the side. True empathy is when someone seeks to understand you and meet you where you are. My goal is to help people figure out how to use their strengths to thrive in their existing environment. Our thoughts, feelings, and actions all affect each other. If we can find the strengths in our narratives, we can redefine the way we tell our stories.

Are you struggling to find help that's right for you? Are you facing difficult life transitions and unsure of how to proceed? Are you dealing with the burden of shame or guilt alone? Do you want a non-judgmental space to examine your relationship to substances? Are there behaviors you would like to change but unsure of where to start? I provide radically compassionate and accepting care to people with all life experiences and stories. I believe that a collaborative, safe, and strong relational connection is the foundation for providing a therapeutic space for clients to experience empowered growth and change.

How discouraging it is to realize where you are, not understand how you got here and even worry it could get worse. What would life feel like with less worry, second guessing, comparison and overwhelm? Is anxiety, depression, fear of failure, perfectionism , regret about substance use and inability to forgive yourself chronic? Could healthier boundaries and less people pleasing improve relationship satisfaction? Do you yearn to deepen your connection to others in a more authentic way to reduce isolation and loneliness?

Hello! Is your life feeling out of balance? Are there things that are happening that feel a bit tough to handle? Are you unsatisfied with some aspect of your life? Do you have trouble communicating in your relationships within your life? Are there specific things you are doing that you are having trouble stopping? If you were to stop these behaviors and patterns, do you feel life would be easier? If you find yourself saying yes to any of these questions, let's look at the answers. They can help us to create some room to navigate new approaches to same old things, empowering you to be open and ready for change.

Welcome! I am a warm, non-judgmental and real person. One of my basic tenants is we, as people, are doing the best we can, and sometimes our conscious or subconscious "plan" to take care of ourselves is just not working anymore. Sometimes we need to develop a new “plan” but that can be difficult and we need help. The relationship with ourselves, family, friends and our community is a pillar to good health and well being. However things get in the way….like trauma, substance use, addiction, depression, anxiety, loneliness, illness, & fear. I want to support your concerns and help you improve your sense of wellbeing.

My approach is rooted in the belief that with awareness, knowledge, and effort you can be empowered to live the life you desire and manifest your goals. I will work with you to develop a stronger, more accepting sense of self through mindfulness, challenging negative cognitions, and validation. I deem myself a counselor, rather than a therapist, one who provides counsel through education, support, guidance, and feedback, with a more directive and accountable approach than a therapeutic exploration of one’s emotional experience. By providing "bumpers," we can work together to identify and dismantle the barriers to your intentions.

Do you feel unfulfilled in your life, like something is missing? Are you hiding certain behaviors from friends and family? Are you struggling with self-esteem, anxiety or depression? Are you using unhelpful coping mechanisms such as substance use, shopping, gaming/internet, or gambling to cope with those struggles? It is difficult to understand the "why" of our thought processes and behaviors on our own. Therapy is a powerful tool that can help you work through understanding your "why" and assist in handling life transitions, achieving goals, or finding relief from symptoms of depression, anxiety, or substance use issues.

Life is challenging at times. Maintaining healthy relationships may feel the like the greatest challenge of all! Our relationships are influenced by our childhood, family, & life experiences. Relationships take work! They can be overwhelming with the intensity of different emotions we experience, and sometimes this leads to make choices that can be unhealthy for us. Isolation, infidelity, & substance use hold us back from having a fulfilling relationship with ourselves & with others. Through exploring our challenges, accepting who we are in this moment, & leaning into the opportunity for growth we can Embrace all life has to offer!

The trauma of addiction touches all of us in one way or another. Recognizing how addiction impacts you physically, mentally, and spiritually can be an awesome awakening to an entirely new way of life. Often individuals suffer from the consequences of making high risk decisions that cause crisis for themselves and their families. Dealing with these consequences alone may increase the desire to continue substances and more negative consequences. Allow me shed light on how to end this vicious cycle. I am a dedicated and compassionate clinician that is committed to the well being of my clients and their families.

Are you tired of putting others needs before yourself? Struggling to cope with the stress of everyday? Feeling like you are not good enough?

I work with clients who are grappling with anxiety, depression, and stress. Many are dealing with changes in their family, including substance use, codependency, and relationship issues. My clients are diverse but they all want to feel understood and validated. The most important part of therapy is the rapport between the clinician and the client, known as unconditional positive regard. The client needs to feel supported so they can freely discuss the presenting problem. Throughout this process, I strive to be warm, empathetic, and knowledgeable. Previous clients have described me as approachable, patient, and open minded.

I am a bilingual social worker and clinician specializing in individual outpatient therapy. Among my areas of expertise are individuals who are struggling with issues of functionality, relationships, identity, self-esteem and other manifestations of life challenges. I have a focus on multicultural populations and individuals who are seeking a space to integrate their psychedelic experiences. Many people are exploring their internal landscapes with the use of psychedelics and these experiences can be intense and challenging to integrate into the psyche without consciously doing so.

Life is a journey filled with sharp turns, bumps, curves, and changes that can take you off course. The challenges and stressors can be hard to face head-on without some help and guidance. Choosing to seek therapy is a good sign of strength that you are putting yourself back on the road of healing and recovery.
