Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. I received my Masters from Gardner-Webb University and have been practicing for 10 years. I help young adults and children struggling with career/school stress as well as feeling stuck in a life. All the pressures we have today lead to melancholy and burnout. Lets work together to help you become the best version of yourself so you can feel peace and contentment.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then work together with a nonjudgmental relaxed vibe to understand the specific challenges you're facing. I will want to understand how you live today, when you were younger (if you are comfortable) and where you want to go. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked with adults and adolescents for the past 10 years, I've developed person centered treatments that are specific to your personal needs. My passion is research and learning the latest scientific studies which have evidence of success. We will (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan which will lead to measurable progress.
I love working with adults and adolescents who are struggling to navigate life in a peaceful and rewarding way. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about their lives. You have come to the right place to be authentically yourself and celebrated for being who you are in this moment. You are the expert of your own life, I will be working beside you as we navigate your journey into emotional wellness. I can help you identify areas where you are stuck and process why/how this happened and help you get back on track to wellness.

Identifying the thoughts that precede behaviors is pertinent to helping facilitate behavioral change. Once identified we can begin the process of challenging the thought and replace with healthy thought we are able to change our actions/behaviors.
DBT allows us to identify the emotion that preceded our thoughts. We can then process the root of the emotion to understand its origin and effectiveness. Our emotions drive our thoughts. By understanding and identifying actual emotion we can then have better change at having a healthy thought pattern. Healthy thoughts lead to healthy action/behavioral outcomes.
Motivational Interviewing insures a client is being completely and correctly heard by utilizing reflection of feelings and reflection of thoughts. There is nothing more powerful to and individual than being thoroughly heard and validated. It is a powerful tool of change to hear your emotions and thoughts reflected back so you can organize and challenge your own thinking patterns and strategies.

After just one session with Roberta I instantly felt understood in my experience. She knows how to make you feel seen and heard. I enjoy her humor and her way of communicating. She is able to approach hard topics directly while doing it in a warm, authentic, and helpful way. I look forward to continuing working with her!
