Therapists in North Carolina

As you take in these words, I want you to picture the kind of change that lies ahead—the kind that gently guides you away from those endless nights of tossing and turning, from the heaviness of your struggles. Recovery isn't just a distant goal; it's a step-by-step journey toward rediscovering peace and connection. Think of me as your companion on this path. (Spanish) Mientras lee, espero que visualice cómo se sentirá la recuperación después de incontables noches de insomnio y angustia. El proceso de sanación requiere acción y estoy aquí para ayudarte a descrubrir la paz y conexión que podrías tener contigo misma(o).

I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in the therapy community for the past 10+ years. I create a safe, comfortable environment to share and explore the thoughts and areas of your life you want to change. My goal is to help you identify the challenges in your life and guide you through the necessary steps with appropriate therapeutic modalities to improve your situation, give you a better quality of life, and foster hope. I am a dedicated therapist and social worker who treats each individual client with care, respect, and very specific treatment approaches in order to suit your particular needs.

People who seek help through the stresses and traumas of life instead of succumbing to them are the bravest people I know. Although therapy may not feel courageous, at some point, we all need the presence and compassionate care of someone committed to our healing process. This is my passion. I work with courageous people who choose to move toward wholeness while continuing to live and care for the responsibilities of their lives. A large part of my work is devoted to helping men and women work through traumatic experiences in the present and those remembered from the past.

Has your body taken over your mind? Are panic attacks or weird physical symptoms hijacking your sense of safety? You are taking the first important step! Symptoms are trying to tell you something. Do you feel as though you could use some help being able to express yourself or make yourself understood? Would you like to feel as though you have some control over the way your body reacts to situations that seem out of your control? I can help you find the answers to these questions because I believe you deserve to live a beautiful life and develop greater resilience when life seems too hard. I see you. Maybe I can help you process it?

Hello! I’m glad you are here. The choice to enter therapy is courageous. Your story matters and it has shaped the person that you are today. The most powerful changes we can make for the future often come within the context of understanding our pasts and bringing care to the places of harm. My goal is to create a safe, encouraging, and shame free therapeutic relationship where transformation and healing can take place.

Hello! I am glad you found your way here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker/Psychotherapist. I have extensive training in treating depression, anxiety, trauma and grief. I specialize in treating individuals with life stressors/transitions, loss/traumatic events, infidelity and relationship issues. I work with adults 18 and over.

Are you someone that seems to have it all together on the outside but in reality mask your struggles? Maybe you are often seen as resilient, successful, creative, and helpful yet you are challenged daily with perfectionism, isolation, and self-neglect. These are the reasons many seek therapy to find relief. I am a licensed clinical social worker and addiction specialist and my specialty involves working with children and adults that have experienced a life stressor, trauma, or abuse that continues to impact them physically and emotionally.

You’ve tried to push down painful experiences from your past for years now, but they just keep rising to the surface. You may feel powerless – like the part of you that feels hurt, worried, guilty, or ashamed is in control. The exhaustion from it all is overwhelming. And you recognize that it’s taking a toll on your wellbeing and impacting the relationships you care about most. But you don’t know what to do. Fortunately, change is possible. I am here to sit alongside and support you as you face this new experience head on, at your own pace. You are resilient and worthy of healing.

Heal. Live. Love. You can gain insight and heal from traumatic experiences. You can develop your skills of healthy coping. You can thrive, not just survive.

January 2024: I have limited openings for new patients. You are welcome to contact me and I will respond about scheduling a consultation as I am able and will discuss your care needs and therapy goals. I am a warm and charismatic psychotherapist and am excited to become a resource and support for you. If you have become overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, are worried that you have developed an addiction, or are concerned that your trauma is impacting you lust for life, you may be at the precipice of profound growth. Together we can create a safe enough space to navigate your change efforts in an effective and affirming way.

Growing up I was always a good listener, but over the past 14 years as a therapist, I have dedicated myself to becoming a great listener. I know that asking for emotional help can be difficult, so when it happens, I want to be that person who can offer a platform for those who want to be heard. I work with adolescents and adults identifying barriers to success and then finding ways to knock them down. I will meet you where you are with empathy and kindness and support you on your journey to happiness and wholeness.

When we experience trauma, we are often left feeling alone, misunderstood, invisible, and unsafe, even within ourselves. Through the process of therapy, we can regain hope, connection, safety, and understanding of ourselves and others. I use wide-range of evidenced-based modalities, from psychodynamic and CBT to EMDR and somatic therapies to decrease the emotional reactivity, tension, and isolation that trauma can create. Regardless of our trauma histories, our modern world can contribute to feelings of disconnection, dissatisfaction, and uncertainty about our worth and our purpose.

REEL therapy for REAL change. Would you like to transform the way you respond to life’s stress? Learn tactics that help you show up as the best REAL version of yourself at home and at work? It’s my mission to create a therapeutic space where you will leave feeling heard, understood, and empowered to take charge of your health, mental well-being, and achieve your goals. Let’s strengthen your capacity to manage stress, symptoms, or trauma that may be holding you back from pursuing a life that aligns with your REAL value, your core values.

Do you feel on overload from anxiety or a deep sadness that won't just go away? Sometimes we reach a point where we feel we need a little extra help to get through a situation we are facing, or sometimes just life in general. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental approach to counseling and welcome those experiencing life's challenges. I have dedicated my life to behavioral health and wellness and specialize in working with those experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, depression, mood disorders, thought disorders and PTSD, among many others. I also offer Mental Health Assessments, Parenting Capacity Assessments and Child Custody Evaluations.

I believe that deep, integrated healing is possible for every person that steps into my office. Sometimes we need an outside perspective and designated space to focus on our healing. I hope to hold this space for my clients and would be honored to support you in your journey. Whether you are exploring aspects of your identity, seeking support in healing from personal, intergenerational, or communal trauma, in recovery from disordered eating patterns, exploring neuro-divergence, or needing a non-judgmental space that promotes personal fulfillment and growth, I am here to support your process.

Therapy includes you and your therapist (as well as your natural supports, when possible/necessary) working closely together to help change your feelings, behaviors, and thoughts. There will be things done together during your sessions, as well as things for you to focus on and apply at home. Some changes may come quickly, but some will take more time and effort for a lasting change.

I work with adult and adolescent clients focusing on a variety of presenting concerns including bicultural identity, divorce, domestic violence, childhood trauma, life transitions, and perinatal/pregnancy/postpartum matters. I am passionate about exploring gender roles and expectations. I love to serve, share common experiences, and celebrate culture and identity with fellow members of the AAPI community and speak Mandarin. I work with couples and families to hold space for the specific difficulties of intercultural relationships.

Therapy is a healing and transformative process, and it takes courage to seek help with the issues often brought to counseling. I believe healing involves looking at the whole person, and it is important to me to provide a safe environment for my clients where they can explore their challenges without judgment, and share with honesty and openness. I work with children, adolescents, teens & adults who want to become their best selves! Many are seeking greater self-awareness & guidance on their path, & many struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, body image, relationships, family stress & life transitions.

I specialize in working with adolescents and adults. I believe clients have their own solutions and when given the time and space they will be able to access these strengths. I have the most experience with anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, school challenges and relationship issues with clients and their families. Please call me so we can discuss treatment options and if I would be a good fit for you. I look forward to talking with you!
