I work with individuals age 18 and above. That means I do not provide couple’s counseling. My belief is that if a couple needs to enter counseling, then there are two people who need to enter individual therapy.
Issues
I have found that although someone may start their work around a single issue (anxiety, grief, substance use, etc.), as the work deepens they find there are other issues which need to be explored (self-esteem, attachment issues, ADHD, etc.)
Types of Therapy
The type of intervention or approach will depend on the person and the issue. One person with symptoms of depression might benefit greatly from CBT while another person with depression might benefit more from psychodynamic work.
I am a trauma-informed provider and and am certified in EMDR, an evidence-based therapy which has been proven to be beneficial to some people who have experienced trauma.
Credentials
My undergraduate degree is from UNC Chapel Hill and I have master’s degrees from Duke University and UNC Charlotte . I am also certified in EMDR and have specialty training in sexual addiction as well as other compulsive and addictive behaviors.
