Therapists for college students near 27707

Do you ever find yourself overwhelmed by the challenges and circumstances in your life? Have you experienced feelings of loneliness, depression, anxiety, sadness, or a lack of support when you needed someone to confide in? I understand these struggles, and I want you to know that it's perfectly okay to not be okay. I'm here to provide you with the tools and strategies you need to break free from negative thought patterns and self-defeating behaviors. Similar to regular physical check-ups, therapy serves as a preventive measure, equipping you with effective strategies to navigate moments of chaos, uncertainty, and everyday life. Together let's transform emotions, behaviors, and thought patterns for your desired outcomes. I support young adults, college students, and adults particularly those from BIPOC communities, facing depression, anxiety, and life transitions. My aim is to empower you, raise your self-awareness, and break down the barriers of mental health stigma. The first step is daunting yet essential. Therapy isn't weakness; it shows strength and courage to seek support. My priority is a nonjudgmental, safe space where you can freely express yourself. Remember, progress begins with putting one foot in front of the other, and soon enough, you'll be walking towards a brighter future.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in North Carolina, I am committed to supporting individuals through a client-centered approach that respects and honors each person’s unique experiences and goals. I believe that within everyone lies the innate potential for healing and growth, and my role is to provide compassionate, tailored support to help you access those inner resources. My approach to therapy is flexible and integrative, drawing from evidence-based practices such as Psychodynamic Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness and Somatic Therapies, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I work collaboratively to identify your priorities and design a treatment plan that aligns with your strengths, needs, and aspirations. I focus on creating a calm, safe environment to foster reflection and ease during our sessions. I am attentive to your communication style and will adapt as needed to ensure that you feel heard, understood, and supported. My ultimate goal is to empower you in your healing journey and help you develop practical skills to manage distress and clarify your path toward a more meaningful, fulfilling life.

Have you or your child been feeling stuck? Have you started to question who you are and what it will take for your circumstances to change? Have difficult memories from the past started to creep back into your mind? Has the voice of outsiders and social media started to make you question your success? Maybe you're in the midst of a major life transition. Holding these thoughts inside while balancing daily tasks can be stressful. Being able to express yourself in a safe space can make all the difference while you begin to view yourself and your circumstances with new lenses. I provide my clients with a space where they can unpack their feelings, express their emotions, and develop strategies to move forward. I am a trauma informed therapist. I am passionate about educating clients on trauma and seeing their progress. I use an integrated approach to allow for an organic therapeutic journey. You can do this! Let's be honest, starting therapy can be a little intimidating. Contact me to schedule a brief consultation!

Are you doing your best, yet life keeps demanding more? Maybe you’re facing change, feeling disconnected in your relationships, or struggling with anxiety or depression that makes everything harder. Are you tired of overthinking, holding it all together, and still feeling stuck? Do you want to feel steady again, to trust yourself, find balance, and breathe a little easier? You don’t have to do this alone. Therapy with me isn’t stiff or clinical; it’s a space to be real, reflect, and respond to life with confidence and self-compassion. I believe therapy should feel human and supportive. Growth happens when you feel safe enough to be yourself, not judged or pressured. My role is to create a space where you can slow down, breathe and explore what’s happening beneath the surface. Therapy is collaborative: you bring your story, strengths and insight; I bring tools, perspective, and compassion. Healing isn’t about “fixing” yourself; it’s about understanding yourself with kindness and curiosity. From that place, real change becomes possible. Together, we’ll work toward greater balance, peace, and connection with yourself and with the people who matter most. If you’re ready to reach out, I’d be honored to support you through whatever you’re facing.

I enjoy working with young adults, assisting them with the transition to college and/or adulthood. I have a lot of experience assisting with ADHD and executive function weaknesses. I enjoy helping adults manage stress, anxiety and depression. I am trained in EMDR (www.emdr.com) and use this approach to help bring healing from traumatic events. I have a gentle but direct approach in working with my clients and have an interactive/relational style.

With 27 years of experience in the counseling field, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and move toward meaningful, lasting change. I have worked with diverse populations facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, grief and loss, addiction, relationship challenges, insomnia, and major life transitions. I also have extensive experience supporting individuals living with ADHD, Panic Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia/Schizoaffective Disorder, and Borderline Personality Disorder. Many come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to cope, but motivated for change. I help by providing a safe, nonjudgmental space built on trust, empathy, and active listening. Using evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, Person-Centered Therapy, Harm Reduction, and Illness Management and Recovery, I tailor treatment to each individual. Reaching out for support can feel difficult, but you don’t have to face things alone. I offer a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can be heard and understood. When you’re ready, I invite you to take that next step toward healing and meaningful change.

I'm passionate about helping kids, teens, and young adults rediscover joy, peace, and connection while building the tools they need to navigate life's challenges with confidence. I also enjoy partnering with families and welcoming adults looking for a warm, collaborative space to heal and grow. I help people navigate anxiety, ADHD, OCD, burnout, relationship and school stress, and self-esteem challenges. My approach blends warmth with evidence, using CBT, ACT, DBT, and ERP when appropriate.

I work with individuals to navigate life's many hardships whether those challenges be difficult life transitions, academic stress, overwhelming emotions, depression, anxiety, suicidality, trauma, obsessions and compulsions, attention problems, or social concerns.

I believe in the power of building a strong therapeutic alliance where you feel heard, understood, and supported every step of the way.

We'll know therapy is working when you start your days feeling rested, engaged, and energized and when you end your days feeling relaxed, accomplished, content, and ultimately feel proud of yourself.

I specialize in individual counseling related to grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, issues related to marriage, children and spirituality.

I invite you to reach out for a free consultation to see if my approach might be a good fit to you and your needs.
