Are you struggling with feelings that you can't quite put into words? Have you attempted to mask this with unhealthy behaviors and coping that has led to guilt, shame or self-doubt? Maybe just being forced to "push through" because life has given you no other alternatives. Potentially these emotions have gotten in the way of your success and or every day life (job, school, relationships), and, you have turned to every avenue for help, but still not found yourself feeling any better? If this is you then your feelings are valid. I help individuals who are struggling to get unstuck in tackling the many challenges of life.


My approach is individualized and non-judgmental. It is important for me to take the time to help you feel safe and comfortable enough to be your true and authentic self. I see everyone's journey as unique within its own right. I believe that the experiences from our past help shape and define our present sometimes being embedded in our subconscious.


Whether you are new to therapy and anxious about taking that first step, or returning after a long haul, I am here to help you take the steps needed to move your life in the ways of your own choosing. My hope is help you bring clarity to your experiences while supporting you in your journey towards transcendence.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right addiction counselor for you

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Fayetteville

Finding addiction therapists in Fayetteville starts with understanding the kind of support you want. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, cravings, relapse patterns, and behavioral concerns. Look for a therapist whose profile lists experience with addiction, substance use, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or coordination with medication-assisted care. Some people also work with a prescriber as part of their care team, depending on their needs.

In a smaller city like Fayetteville, local appointment options may be more limited, so virtual therapy can help expand your search while keeping care accessible from home. As you compare therapists, consider appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their approach to recovery support. Recovery often takes different forms over time, so it can help to look for a therapist who uses a non-judgmental style and has experience with harm reduction frameworks. Reading therapist bios can show how they talk about goals, setbacks, structure, and collaboration before you book.

Therapy in Fayetteville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing support more affordable. Headway helps you check your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare addiction therapists who are accepting new patients. You can review bios, choose between in-person and virtual appointments when available, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
