Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or overly clinical. I offer a supportive, down-to-earth space where you can show up exactly as you are — no pressure, no judgment. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, or simply ready for change, we’ll work together to better understand what’s going on and identify practical steps forward. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your individual needs. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine conversation, balanced with tools and strategies that you can actually use in daily life. Together, we’ll explore patterns, build coping skills, and strengthen your ability to navigate challenges with confidence. Seeking support is a courageous step, and you don’t have to figure things out alone. My goal is to help you gain clarity, develop resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change.

My counseling approach is characterized by a combination of honesty, empathy, and compassion, complemented by a subtle touch of humor. I employ an eclectic counseling approach that encompasses various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Play Therapy/Child Centered Play Therapy, Art Therapy, and Solution-Focused therapy. I believe there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, so I focus on what works best for each person. I’m committed to adjusting my style to fit each client’s unique needs and challenges. In my free time, I live for spending quality moments with my two pups and close friends. Additionally, I relish day trips and attending performances featuring Drag Queens. I look forward to the opportunity to provide you with the support you need on your therapeutic journey.

Trauma has haunted you for years. It’s left you with nightmares and flashbacks. It’s caused you to distrust others and push them away. It’s made you feel broken and hopeless. You’ve tried everything you can think of to shed the weight of the past. You’ve read the books, tried the life hacks… You may have even talked to a therapist. But now, you’re out of options. Nothing has helped you transition from being a survivor to someone who’s truly alive. And you’re all talked out. No matter how many times you tell your story, nothing changes. The search for relief is exhausting. This might be your last shot at getting help.

I’m a warm, down-to-earth therapist who believes that feeling safe, understood, and genuinely supported is the foundation for meaningful change. With nearly 15 years of experience across schools, hospitals, crisis settings, and community-based care, I’ve had the privilege of working with people at many different stages of life—from teens navigating overwhelming emotions to adults facing complex life challenges. My background as both a counselor and school social worker has given me a deep understanding of how early experiences, family dynamics, and life transitions shape who we are. I’ve supported students and families through anxiety, emotional struggles, and difficult situations, and I carry that same patience, empathy, and advocacy into my work with all clients. I’ve also worked in high-intensity environments—including crisis settings, alongside law enforcement, in hospitals, and with veterans, survivors of trauma and domestic violence, and individuals in eating disorder treatment. Because of this, I’m comfortable supporting clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start. You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. In our work together, I focus on creating a space where you can be yourself without fear of judgment. I balance practical tools and coping strategies with deeper exploration, helping you not only manage what you’re going through, but also understand it. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to you—whether you’re looking for structure, insight, or simply a place to feel heard. Reaching out for therapy can be hard, but you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, more confident, and more in control of your life.

Life, at times, can present us with extraordinary challenges and circumstances leaving us feeling anxious, overwhelmed, depressed, and even hopeless. Emotions from present or past experiences can become so burdensome that we develop unhealthy ways to cope. Symptoms may become so elevated that they affect our ability to function and interrupt family or social relationships. What I provide is an opportunity to process life's difficulties with someone who cares and has the clinical knowledge to assist you with gaining insight and understanding while developing new strategies and coping skills to manage your mental health day by day. I offer primarily CBT therapy with a person-centered trauma-informed focus.

Hi, I am a Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in North Carolina. I received my degree from Saybrook University in California and have been practicing for the past 15 years. I have specialized training in Somatic Experiencing and Attachment Therapy. I work with adults to resolve symptoms of stress, shock, and trauma that accumulate in our bodies and nervous systems transforming patterns that get stuck and impact our daily life. I support clients in bringing their nervous systems back into balance getting out of fight, flight and freeze to strengthen one's sense of safety, resourcefulness and resilience in the world. Some of the techniques I use are helping clients slow down and attune to what is happening in their bodies. I also work with clients on "resourcing" or finding tools to help them self soothe when they are feeling emotionally overloaded. I specialize in individual therapy and am not currently seeing couples.

That’s why I love matching your needs with the best type of therapy that’s also backed up with research to definitely be able to help you. With that, you’re still the expert on you and your life, so you bring your experiences and I’ll bring my knowledge, and together we can figure out how to help you figure out how to get exactly what you’re wanting in life. I specialize in working with anxieties, depression, trauma, as well as with teens and parents.

I am a veteran of the helping professions, having served since 1982 in some capacity or another, and I still find excitement in the possibility of helping those who need such assistance. I am currently licensed in two states, both North Carolina and Pennsylvania. I find many people respond to my ability to simply listen and that shows that they do not often feel they have been heard and sometimes this is all that is necessary to start the journey to begin healing. Certainly more is often required, and helping people connect with effective treatments whether provided by myself or not is the best help that can be given.

Hi, I’m a therapist who works with teens, young adults, and even connect well with adults who are feeling anxious, stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. My clients are often deep thinkers and feelers who care a lot but sometimes struggle to show care toward themselves. Many are navigating transitions, healing from the past, or trying to figure out who they really are. In therapy with me, you can expect a warm, down-to-earth space where you don’t have to pretend or have it all together. I bring humor, compassion, and curiosity to our work together and a deep respect for your lived experience. Whether you're untangling old patterns, building healthier relationships, or learning to trust yourself again, I’m here to help you reconnect with your strength and your story. Therapy isn’t about fixing you, it’s about helping you feel more like you. And I’d be honored to be part of that process.

As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist Associate I believe the biggest component to achieving happiness is making your mental health a priority. Taking the first step to improve your overall mental health can be a huge decision, but a very brave one! I graduated with my masters degree in clinical mental health counseling from Capella University in 2018. I have over 8 years of experience working in many different counseling settings, including inpatient/outpatient, residential, community support, and private practice. I enjoy working with those 13 and up who are struggling with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, personality disorders, serious, chronic mental illnesses, and addictive behaviors.

Do you feel emotionally overwhelmed, overthink conversations, or absorb the stress and emotions of others? I help highly sensitive people, empaths, and professionals experiencing anxiety, burnout, and emotional overload. Using Cognitive Behavioral, Person-Centered, Mindfulness-Based, Solution-Focused and Somatic approaches, we explore how thoughts, emotions, and body responses interact.

Life Transitions

There are times when we feel stuck in patterns we can’t seem to break or disconnected from who we really are under the weight of expectations from family, relationships, and work. I use cultural awareness and acceptance to support high achieving professionals from diverse cultural and racial backgrounds as they navigate expectations, identity, and relationships at work and in their personal lives. It can be life changing to give yourself permission not to fit neatly into predefined boxes. I’m a holistic therapist who understands that your wellness isn’t just about what’s happening in your life. It’s shaped by your relationships, the systems you navigate, and the identity you carry. I’ve worked with couples seeking deeper connection, individuals managing chronic stress or illness, and families navigating major transitions. I’m also a 200-hour certified yoga instructor, and I integrate mindfulness, breathwork, and body awareness into our work. This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about supporting your wellness as a whole person. You are more than your symptoms and patterns of behavior.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by North Carolina rather than a city like Charlotte?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in North Carolina. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across North Carolina from Raleigh to Greensboro! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in North Carolina.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Trauma and PTSD?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Trauma and PTSD, is filtering therapists in North Carolina that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
