Are you new to therapy or maybe returning to therapy due to recent changes or events? Then Journey Counseling PLLC is where you begin working through your mental and emotional life experiences. Outpatient treatment is seen as the lowest level of care, meaning that support is provided on a weekly basis with time to allow you to practice the things that happen in session.

Welcome! I’m a multicultural EMDR therapist who specializes in trauma/PTSD, eating disorders, anxiety and depression. My goal is to help you live more fully, have confidence in your self-worth, and have more peace in body and mind. Maybe you feel overwhelmed and unsafe in the world around you? Maybe you feel disconnected from yourself and others? Perhaps you’ve tried many things to stop obsessive thoughts and gain control, yet you are tired. If you are struggling and feel stuck, maybe it’s time to get some help. Let’s work together to develop a plan that will help you feel more stable and confident in navigating life.

Do you feel unfulfilled, unhappy, stressed, overwhelmed and stuck, but desire to break free from what is holding you back and work towards living your best life? We all possess the innate ability to overcome our challenges and evolve to being the best version of ourselves. With the right tools and support, you are capable of reaching your fullest potential and experiencing true fulfillment and success in life. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, self-esteem issues or relationship issues, I am committed to exploring and processing with you, your unique path towards wholeness, freedom, and fulfillment.

Life can leave us feeling like we're running on autopilot with our emotions on mute. Therapy can be your personal decoder, helping you understand yourself and unlock your hidden potential. Do you struggle to identify your feelings or feel stuck in unhealthy patterns? If so, we'll explore the root of these struggles, often linked to past experiences. You'll develop the skills to express yourself authentically, navigate emotions healthily, and build a future filled with confidence and purpose.

There is so much excitement around babies. From the sound of soft baby coos to the warm cuddles right before a nap. Ideally, babies are fun, but new parenthood can be overwhelming, scary, and anxiety provoking. That’s something we don’t talk about enough. From brain fog, not feeling like yourself, body betrayals, feeling out of place, shifts in relationships, grief, exhaustion all the way to isolation, there is so much that can come up in the journey to parenthood. You want to feel balanced, and enjoy yourself again. You want your body to do what it’s supposed to. You want to feel heard, seen, and connected.

You are not what you feel. You are not even what you think. You are what you do. Acceptance & Commitment Therapy is about taking thoughts and feelings and using them for what they're supposed to be: data. They are merely to let us know how we're responding to our environment. It is up to our higher cognitions, our rational thoughts, to decide what to do with that information. My clients range from those with neurodevelopmental issues, mood disorders, and life adjustment events. The premise is the same in all cases: understand ourselves, what we feel and think, figure out WHY we think that way, and then decide what to do with it.

I am pleased to work with adults facing issues related to substance use/misuse issues in their lives or the lives of their family members. I provide independent DWI assessments under NC regulations, as well as individual counseling to EAP, medical, or self referred individuals. As of 02/02/2020, I have added telehealth conferencing/counseling to my range of services. This allows for greater ease and flexibility to the consumer in receiving services. I use Zoom conferencing in a secure, confidential manner. DWI assessments are now eligible for on-line services in North Carolina.

I am an advocate for empowering secret-holders to let go of their burdens to create new freedom. Whether it's dealing with the shame of substance abuse issues, fear surrounding sexual identity concerns, underlying dread from childhood traumas, or ongoing guilt of "forgotten crimes" from the past. I offer a safe space to put your story to rest. Working together, we create a new story that gives you authenticity, community, and possibility.

It's hard to focus on work and home when your thoughts are racing. Getting through the day without a meltdown has become a life goal. Isolating to avoid stress is automatic. And friends? Well, forget about that. There is no energy or desire to be around friends. Emotions like fear, shame, and loneliness have crushed important things like confidence, peace, and a sense of well-being. Now, since you are reading this I am going to assume that this isn't ok with you. I am going to go out on a limb and guess that you want something different. That's great, because that means that you are ready for change. I can help.
