Find a Therapist in Long View, North Carolina.

The Experiential process is structured to encourage safe exploration of emotions, thoughts, behaviors contained in the experience with a third object to develop insight into behavior patterns and defense mechanisms for coping with life. The therapeutic relationship is the vehicle through which the healing and growth process occurs as much of the new learning is in the context of how it plays out with the support of the therapist in the immediate environment. The task orientation of the activities and techniques allow for the client to focus with the therapist on the third object to resolve the issue together. Client empowerment, personal responsibility, and self- determination is promoted.

Starting therapy can be one of the most important actions a person can take, and I honor the feelings of hope, uncertainty and anxiety that this can create. I will try to make the experience helpful and worthwhile through my active, supportive listening and interest, and the strong belief that, with enough work, everyone can heal and achieve their goals. When I’m with my client our relationship is most important and I try to cultivate trust and feelings of safety that they can say anything and everything. In my twenty-six years as a therapist I have successfully helped many clients with anxiety, low energy, sleep issues, professional struggles, and depression.

As a licensed individual, marriage, and family therapist, I pay special attention to how past and present relationships shape identity and influence stress. I work with clients from diverse backgrounds and with various stressors including chemical and behavioral addictions such as compulsive technology use or compulsive sexual behavior, mood disorders such as depression or bi-polar disorder, anxiety and panic disorders, dissociative processes, personality disorders, occupational stressors, and stressful relationship dynamics. Please reach out for a free phone consultation or send me an email to further discuss your needs and get a clear picture of how therapy will address your concerns.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.
