I am the co-director of Cohoba, a nonprofit operating as a community arts and mental health hub in the VAPA Center: you can visit www.cohoba.org for more information.
I believe therapy works best when there is a strong connection between therapist and client. My style is warm, genuine, and direct. I'll offer compassion and support, but I'll also help you recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
As a trauma-informed therapist and EMDR specialist, I create a space where you can be yourself without judgment. Clients often tell me they feel comfortable with me quickly because I show up as a real person—not just a therapist.
I believe healing happens through both insight and action. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and empowered to create meaningful change in your life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Wake Forest
Searching for therapists in Wake Forest starts with finding the right fit for what you want to address in care. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare Wake Forest therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Wake Forest has local therapy options, and the broader Wake County area can add more choices. Since local appointment openings may vary, virtual therapy can make it easier to find a therapist whose schedule and focus fit what you need. When narrowing your search, consider whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers in-person or virtual appointments, has appointment times that work for your calendar, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading each profile before booking can help you understand their communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns like yours.
Therapy in Wake Forest can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
