About My Clients
I specialize in providing therapy for adults from my office in Winston-Salem, NC, and through teletherapy. Commonly, clients address topics such as depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, grief and loss, substance use, anger, and stress management. The following will help you become acquainted with me and how I work.
My Background and Approach
My approach begins with creating a supportive, strengths-based environment and spirit. Spirit, that being an immaterial force within a human being thought to give the body life, energy, and power. In combination I use Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Solution Focused Therapy, as well as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR). I find it easy to be fluid in session. Meaning, using whatever comes up in session, or I may use a more directive approach as requested or needed in your care. I believe in nurturing self-worth and positive core beliefs. In addition, I feel that as part of therapy it is important to support all parts of our self. Including our spiritual self. I am open to learning more about the spiritual part of you and if you desire making that a part of your care and healing.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Working to accept life’s changes and the things we can’t control is a real thing. Still, we can explore what we need and, more importantly, how to ask for or obtain whatever it may be that brings us a sense of peace, purpose, joy, or happiness and a better balance in our lives. -Virginia
