I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) seeing clients in North Carolina statewide via virtual visits. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, setting boundaries, dating in the digital era, confidence, and eating disorders. Whether, you have a small circle of friends, dealing with transitional changes in life, depression, loneliness, or even really crappy Hinge dates. You deserve to invest in your self-care and curate the most fulfilling life for yourself. If any of this speaks to you I encourage you to reach out today.
Our first session is where we start to build rapport and spend time talking in more detail about recent stressors and/or what you would like to get from therapy. I find it very important to know not just your problems but also your interests, hobbies, and people who are important to your world.
My greatest strength as a provider is the ability to build a rapport with my clients. Therapy can be very vulnerable and I believe my personable, calm, direct, and supportive communication style helps create openness with my clients. I value my clients feeling heard, understood, and comfortable during our sessions.
I have found that my style and approach are a good fit for teens and young adults who may identify as internalizers and struggle with confidence, a loud inner critic, people-pleasing, and taking up space. This may manifest as anxiety, depression, disordered eating, and high levels of stress. I help my clients get to the core of their triggers and support them in navigating how to curate a life that feels fulfilling to them.
CBT helps you recognize how your thoughts, behaviors and feelings influence each other, with that knowledge it can increase your ability to curate the most fulfilling and meaningful life for yourself and let go of what's no longer serving you.
