Therapists Beginning With N in North Carolina

As a Certified Sex Therapist Supervisor and the Executive Director of the Carolina Sexual Wellness Center, I am passionate about helping my clients improve their sex lives and increase authenticity. I supervise a wonderful group of sex-positive clinicians who share my focus on issues related to sex, sexuality and gender. I love the connections I create with my clients and the bond we create as we work toward change. I know it can be difficult to take the first step, but you will not regret your decision to get help and learn the skills and strategies to overcome what has been holding you back. You can do this.

We each have the wisdom within ourselves to guide us on our life journey. However, we often forget to listen when life around us is loud, confusing or perplexing. Additionally, childhood trauma or old baggage interferes with our listening ability. These distractions prevent us from hearing our own inner wisdom. I am a sojourner with my clients as I help them learn to listen to their own internal wisdom. Together, we work to discover inner healing, peace and life balance in their lives.

Welcome! I help individuals experiencing life transitions, anxiety, trauma, depression, and relationship challenges. I believe in fostering a collaborative therapeutic relationship built with safety, respect, and empowerment. We'll work together to help you achieve your goals and feel better. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and enthusiastically welcome clients of all races, cultures and identities.

Life can be so challenging to navigate, while also trying to discover and understand your true authentic self. Have you ever felt hopeless, inadequate, or unmotivated? How about stressed from racing thoughts you cannot escape? Many people have also experienced trauma, which can be overwhelming, exhausting, and create further barriers to self-growth. You are not alone. You are so courageous for taking this first step toward healing and taking back control of your life. I will create space for you that feels warm, empathetic, non-judgmental, and safe to process your thoughts and feelings while learning new skills to help you cope.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by expectations of daily life? Maybe you're wearing many hats- employee, caregiver, parent, partner, child- and feel like you've lost your sense of self balancing everyone else's needs. If so, we can work through that together! I have experience working with adults with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, relationship and communication issues, and perinatal mood disorders. Together, we can work on identifying the root causes to your feelings and create an individualized plan to work through them. Through mindfulness, reflection, re-framing, and more, we will work on moving you towards your goals.

No Openings at this time. Telehealth/Virtual Only in NC and FL. Ever found yourself saying "I just can't deal anymore?" Maybe life's been hard because of impactful moments (e.g. an accident, abuse, natural disaster, communal/social/racial stressor, toxic relationships, or sudden/traumatic grief/loss). This might show up as increased worry, fear/panic, sadness, or feeling "out of it." If you're here, you're already motivated for change and relief!

It is an honor to assist clients in their personal growth work. I believe that a strong, therapeutic relationship based on a foundation of safety, trust and commitment is essential. I enjoy clients who are insightful, open, and curious. Working together, we use a combination of insight oriented therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) in addition to other strategies. I particularly enjoy clients who take an active role in therapy by creating their own goals and challenging themselves outside of the sessions. A certain amount of bravery is required and I very much respect this.

I work with individual adult/child clients and couples who are facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, loss, trauma, ADHD, Bipolar disorder, and challenges at work or in relationships. I have counseled adults, couples, and groups in community-based and school-based mental health, as well as private practice. I have also conducted in-depth research on trauma, hopelessness, empathy, attachment, and intimacy. Above all, I believe that my clients, not I, hold the key to their growth and that emotional pain and anxiety, when given respect and non-judgmental attention, can often provide some of the best opportunities for learning.

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.

Choosing a therapist can be a scary and intimidating experience. It is important that you find a person that you and your family feel comfortable. I hope that I can be that person. The first step in therapy is to have a trusting a mutually resprectful relationship.

Now more than ever, we face loneliness, isolation, and confusion during these uncertain times. Therapy should be based on creating a safe and trusting relationship where you can explore and be your most authentic self. It is my philosophy that we all need a strong and supportive community to thrive. My goal is to work in collaboration, utilizing exploration, curiosity, and self-discovery. We work together on igniting the resiliency you already possess. I am passionate about providing a safe space for young adults, individuals, and families as we work towards finding more harmony your relationships and connection with yourself.

Your faith has lost its spark. You want to believe, but right now it’s hard. You want to feel close to God, yet everything you do makes you feel farther and farther from Him, leaving you feeling defeated and hopeless. The questions. The doubts. They’re LOUD. You remember a time when your faith was strong. But now? Now the suffering you experience has you questioning everything you thought you knew. Maybe church abuse is real for you. Whether the leadership of the church or the people of the church. It’s brutally painful. “If that’s what a Christian is…I’m out.” But in your heart, you don’t want to abandon ship.

I’ve worked with individuals as they face a terminal diagnosis; with patients who have experienced losses in their relationships and livelihood due to mental illness or a chronic condition; with couples as they navigate role shifts, parenting, and caregiving of elder family members; with clients whose life experience of social marginalization have led to depression; and with those presenting to their primary care doctor for stomach pain and heart palpitations, only to learn that anxiety is the root cause.
