About My Clients
I help curious, sensitive adults in North Carolina, Florida, and abroad heal, re-charge, and move forward with confidence, clarity, and wisdom. We’ll work together to uncover, examine, and understand your story so that you can write your own new story moving forward, rather than get bogged down by mistakes from your past.
My Background and Approach
My approach is collaborative, not authoritarian, and we'll work together to explore the issues holding you back, and in finding ways to move forward. I'm focused on listening to your story, rather than providing advice and direction, so that I can really understand how you're feeling and what you are going through. In addition to a Master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling, I hold a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) license in the State of North Carolina and I am a registered telehealth provider in the State of Florida. I have extensive training in modern psychoanalysis, and continue to increase my knowledge through regular, ongoing education. I also have extensive training in grief therapy and contemplative psychotherapy. Equally important, I am a lifelong learner who is dedicated to helping others make lasting changes in their lives and become the architects of their own success.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Every person deserves to be treated with respect and appreciation for their own uniqueness, regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, sexual identity, physical ability, and gender, and unconditional acceptance of others is central to my approach to therapy. I believe that the first step toward real progress in any area of life is to first create an environment of safety, confidentiality, mutual trust, and respect, where individuals can genuinely be heard, free of judgement. In addition, I firmly believe that you have the innate capacity to forge your own path, and that allowing that process to unfold naturally and at your direction yields the best and most permanent results. As such, my role is to facilitate and support you in your journey, enabling a greater sense of independence and self-sufficiency on your part, and providing you with the sense of accomplishment, ownership, and responsibility that comes with all earned rewards.
