I am offering immediate appointment slots and flexible rates during this difficult time. Are you struggling with anxiety and depression due to COVID-19? Do you feel uncertain about how to move forward during this difficult time? You may feel trapped or hopeless, but I can help you with proven coping skills and by working with you to create a new perspective. My life experience provides a solid foundation upon which I have built my techniques and interventions. In addition to my work with adults, I have experience with teens and young adults, and enjoy connecting with them and helping them navigate life and family challenges.

I spent 25 years in corporate America before earning my master's degree in professional counseling. This experience has given me insight into the stresses in the workplace. Having been a long time sufferer of anxiety, I can empathize with the weight of this emotion while also sharing techniques that have helped me live a better, more enjoyable life.

We are living in uncertain times and COVID fatigue has made daily life even more difficult to manage. It can feel overwhelming, but I will work with you to re-train your brain so that your automatic thought patterns are encouraging instead of fearful.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Matthews

Searching for therapists in Matthews starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist specialties match that need. Many people look for therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or work stress. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that align with your goals, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, somatic therapy, or support for couples and families.

Matthews has local therapy options, and nearby Charlotte can expand your search if you want more appointment times or specialty matches. Virtual therapy can also make it easier to find a North Carolina therapist whose schedule, approach, and availability fit what you need. Before booking, review therapist bios for practical details like session format, appointment availability, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Therapy in Matthews can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, shows estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and lets you schedule directly when you find a match.
