Find a Therapist in Wilmington, North Carolina.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

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.
