Therapists in Archer Lodge, NC

I have counseling work experience in residential, community agency, university counseling centers and private practice settings. I have experience with adolescents and adults providing personal, psychoeducational and psychosocial counseling services. I also have experience working with couples and families. Additionally, I have experience working with adults who are in crisis, involved with the court system and the Division of Social Services. My orientation to counseling is based on cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, developmental and systemic theories of counseling. I also employ Rogerian, reality therapy, and Gestalt techniques. I believe that the primary process of counseling involves helping clients to find the resources within themselves in order to develop requisite skills and address themes related to their presenting problem(s) or underlying issues. My supervision training includes three years of counselor supervision in a university counseling center setting and ten years of administrative counselor supervision also in a university setting. I currently supervise aspiring counselors. I continue to receive supervision training via conferences and on-line classes. I have had a private practice for over fifteen years. I look forward to working with you. Let's get started.

A little about me...my doctorate is in Counselor Education and Supervision from N.C. State University (c/o 1999), my master's degree is in Community Counseling from UNC-Greensboro (c/o 1996), and my bachelor's degree is in Psychology from N.C. State University (c/o 1993). I have been in the counseling field since getting my first job in a private behavioral health hospital in 1993. Since that time, I have worked in both public and private mental health agencies, public schools, and as a director of a non-profit organization. Since 2002, I have been a full-time professor of Counseling at N.C. Central University (Durham), and I have maintained a small private practice during this time. I have always felt it is important to stay active as a clinician if I am attempting to teach others how to do it. My practice hours are a bit scattered each day during the week, Monday through Friday. I generally can respond to messages at least once per morning and once per afternoon (Mon.-Fri.). You can also book a live session with me ahead of time. Please remember that BetterHelp is not appropriate if you are in crisis or in immediate need of support.
