Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Charlotte, NC

I am a North Carolina native, born and raised in a small town. I most enjoy witnessing the moment when clients in my care really "get it" and understand themselves better. I consider myself a behaviorist at heart with a passion for trauma-focused therapy. I most often utilize DBT and working with those suffering from emotional dysregulation, self-harm and suicidal thoughts.

Are you living a balanced life? What is your story?

Often, our path in life gets off balance when we encounter major life transitions, work stress, relationships struggles, family conflicts, complicated grief and loss and addictions. When we experience existential concerns, identity crisis, cultural distress, it affects us deeply, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and often stuck. Seeking the right help is pivotal in working through, accessing meaning behind the suffering and looking ahead with hope.
