22 years of experience offering psychology treatment
Life can often be difficult, causing individuals to feel lonely and overwhelmed. Many of my clients begin therapy because they are struggling with an emotional void and they are wondering how to live their best life. My therapeutic style is warm, non-judgmental, strength based and solution focused. The strong therapeutic relationship I work to cultivate is often the catalyst for my clients to become more self aware, insightful and in control of their life. I have over 22 years experience working with adults, children and families. It has been an honor to work side by side with and guide clients through challenges that seem impossible to overcome, including depression, anxiety, grief, sexual, physical and emotional abuse, substance use and unhealthy family dynamics. It would be a privilege to help you to discover your inherent strengths so you can begin to feel better about yourself and your life.

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to visit my page. I am a licensed therapist with 5 years of experience providing direct care to adults struggling with a wide variety of mental health difficulties and challenging life circumstances. While I find my approach to therapy can be of benefit and applicable to a majority of situations we face in life, I find my strength lies in working with individuals facing depression, anxiety, burnout, and changes in life roles, goals, and responsibilities. You’ve taken a wonderful step towards exploring meaningful change by being here, today, reading my profile and exploring what options for care might suit you best. The power over your life is in your hands – and in seeking care, remember: you are, in fact, interviewing me to see if we fit! While I certainly hope we do, there is nothing wrong, bad, or shameful if we do not. Finding a therapeutic match is important! I operate as a therapist based in Acceptance in Commitment Therapy, otherwise known as ACT (pronounced like the word, act). Through ACT, I aim to explore how those that I work with can overcome barriers to change. This is done by learning about and building skills that help you take a step back from the thoughts and feelings that keep you from achieving your goals, and connecting to your most important values. This knowledge and skillset is aimed to help you act – pun intended – and make changes towards a more meaningful, fulfilling life. If you choose to work with me, I will typically take our first session together to review my therapeutic approach, focus the majority of our session on giving you the "floor" (virtual floor, I suppose!) to share your current situation and struggles, and close by beginning to establish initial goals. It is my personal, professional mindset that I want to help you build the skills and insight into yourself and your situation so that you can begin making the changes you would like to see for you; my primary therapeutic goal is to assist you in feeling able to live a values-focused life, so that you can feel able to further pursue the life you want to live without the use of therapy. Whether you are facing considerable life change or looking to make some slight adjustments to your day-to-day routines, I look forward to knowing you, your experience, and providing the assistance that can help you begin to realize those changes, and sustain them in the long term.

** Not receiving new clients at this time ** I'm a Marriage and Family Therapist in North Carolina with over sixteen years of experience working with women, couples, and families. I've collaborated with clients facing a wide variety of challenges, such as marriage struggles, parenting concerns, depression and anxiety, career concerns, confidence and self-esteem, issues of spirituality, grief, and abuse.

I believe there's beauty and meaning to be discovered in every life story--regardless of creed, color, or income bracket. My approach is one of human connection and safe/secure attachment to one another, and I rely heavily on emotionally-focused therapy techniques, especially in my work with couples. While serving individual clients, it's common that I also integrate aspects of narrative, solution-focused, and trauma-informed therapies into our work together. On a personal note, I'd like to applaud your decision to invite someone into your story instead of attempting to journey alone. We experience no greater strength than when we join together in our most difficult times in life.

31 years of experience offering psychology treatment
I hold a master’s degree in counseling from Appalachian State University (Boone, NC 1989) and an advanced certificate in expressive arts therapy from the European Graduate School of Expressive Arts Therapy (Leuk-Stadt, Switzerland, 1999). I have been working in the field of counseling for 31 years.

My methods are strength-based and concentrate on building upon existing strengths and discovering new resources. My therapeutic approach is client-centered and individualized. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process. I see myself as a resource and support and a sounding board. I will work together with you to identify and learn skills for coping with and expressing emotions, practicing self-care, problem-solving, decision-making, planning and pursuing new life directions. I use counseling skills to encourage sharing and to process therapy experiences. I often use cognitive and/or cognitive-behavioral techniques in problem-solving and goal-setting. However, sensory experience can be a great complement to understanding/insight, so at times we might use a combination of talk therapy and non-talk techniques such as mindfulness, expressive arts, body centered techniques, or Gestalt approaches, etc. My primary areas of expertise are in the areas of anxiety/depression/anger management, grief and loss, processing past and recent trauma, current life events, and developmental life transitions such as blending of families, deaths, divorces, relationship issues, moving, career changes, etc. I have a strong background of experience and skills in the areas of outdoor education, experiential education, and expressive arts therapy. I believe that humans have endless capacity for change and positive growth -and that many situations can be improved through a combination of self-reflection and increased self-awareness, information, self-care, and supportive collaboration.

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Hot Springs?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide.

Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of Hot Springs therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?
Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Hot Springs, North Carolina can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
Hot Springs has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.
Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?
The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
