I know how hard it is to learn to talk about difficult things. That made me want to help others learn to do the same. I started by volunteering at rape crisis and domestic violence shelters. When I was at these places I did outreach in the community and ran support groups for both. For a time, I took rape crisis hospital calls to support people who had come in for sexual assault exams. This work that taught me to be comfortable talking about anything, at any time, with anyone. I have worked with all types of individuals from ages 12 and up. My first Masters was an intensive dive into Human Rights. My second Masters was in Counseling so I could work with individuals to help them beyond the crisis moments. My passion is to help people progress towards healing.

A listening heart and a supportive hand can be a big help finding our way again. With over 40 years of experience, I have worked with a wide range of people and concerns.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Salisbury
Searching for therapists in Salisbury starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want to address. Therapists may support people living with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, trauma-informed therapy, or couples counseling in Salisbury, NC. A therapist’s profile can show what they focus on, who they work with, and what sessions may look like.
Salisbury is a smaller city, so local in-person appointment options may be more limited than in larger North Carolina markets. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in North Carolina. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before you book can help you compare communication style, listed specialties, and experience with concerns like marriage counseling in Salisbury, NC or individual therapy.
Therapy in Salisbury can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for Salisbury therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person sessions when available. You can review therapist profiles, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
