About My Clients
I work with people experiencing anxiety, depression, emotion-regulation difficulty, and compulsive behavior. Initial sessions focus on addressing the symptoms that are impacting a person's life most significantly and learning skills to get relief from those symptoms quickly. My experience is that most people understand what is causing their pain. I help them learn, and take, the next steps.
My Background and Approach
I have over ten years of experience helping adults make positive changes in their lives. I am both a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor as well as a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist in NC. I have additional experience working with college students and adults with ADHD. Therapies I use most often are Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness Practice, and Brief Solution-Focused Therapy. My experience is that most people already know what is holding them back, and these treatment approaches focus on skills building and action steps toward sustained change rather than just insight development alone. Importantly, I never ask a client to try a technique that I have not tried myself, have training in, and have seen work well in practice. Treatment will always be adjusted to your unique needs.
