Find a Therapist in Louisburg, North Carolina.

I have a warm and compassionate approach in therapy. I know that it can be difficult to reach out for help, and I honor and value my clients for taking the courageous step to address the needs and issues that they have. I highly value my clients' confidentiality and privacy, and employ ethical and professional standards of practice. I use elements of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I strive to meet each client where he or she is at, and work hard to help each client meet his or her treatment goals.

Psychotherapy, or "talk therapy," is a psychosocial form of mental health treatment used to treat a variety of mental health disorders and concerns. Whether on an individual, family, or group level the primary aim of psychotherapy is to assist individuals with developing increased insight into their experiences and to encourage behavior change in an effort to resolve psychological, emotional, and behavioral difficulties and promote growth. Some forms of psychotherapy focus on thoughts, thoughts processes and beliefs, others focus more so on emotional responses and interpretation of experiences (e.g., the meaning), while others are most concerned with observable behavior.

My style and approach to psychotherapy with individuals and couples is one that is very interactive and collaborative. Together we will work to address areas of your life and relationships you are struggling with, identify goals you want to accomplish and changes you would like to make. We will build upon your strengths you bring to therapy and develop new tools and strategies to help you attain the personal growth you wish to accomplish.

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.
