Depression Therapists in Pleasant Garden, NC

"I'm okay. Everything's alright". You tell yourself this repetitively while withholding tears and smiling for everyone else. You secretly struggle to believe what God says about you. Some days you feel so alone. You battle to feel loved and good enough to be the person God created you to be. Anxiety, depression, fear, grief, loss, shame and trauma have become emotional strongholds. Life seems to keep coming and you feel depleted. You ultimately want to live in freedom in your mind, no longer enslaved by the pain of the past, comparison, and even fear that your future will be failure. You desire to sense hope and fulfillment again.

One of the most important things we can do is take care of ourselves and each other. I'm so glad you are taking a step towards doing so. YOU are the most important person in your life, and my goal is to help you uncover the best version of yourself. Whether it self discovery or rediscovery, that best version is inside of us all. I like to use a person centered approach and identify what style of therapy works best for the person I am working with.

My ideal client is someone who is not perfect or doing their best, but someone who is experiencing a difficult time in their life and is willing and motivated. Motivated in the sense of taking the necessary steps to work through any difficulties that you are experiencing. Experiencing depression or anxiety or difficulties with work or anything else, let's work through the issues together.

I specialize in working with clients who are battling issues with depression, anxiety, stress, PTSD, grief and loss, substance use, relationships, medical issues and difficulty coping with chronic health (kidney disease, cancer, etc), effects of trauma, feelings of worthlessness, being lost in life, self esteem, self love, goal setting, finding solutions, loneliness, and employment. I also help people who just need to vent and get it out (talk therapy). I also specialize in helping people use assertive communication to help better communication with others for the betterment of themselves for the present and the future.

There are times when there is the feeling that all hope is gone. I believe that God has a plan for your life, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future...and will bring you back from captivity. My goal is simple: to help my clients discover that "plan", gain insight, make changes, and grow in God's grace. I am here to assist you in your journey back to wholeness: mentally, emotionally, relationally, and/or spiritually. Whether you're trying to restore a broken marriage, mend family relationships, pick up the pieces or seeking a fresh start, hope and healing awaits you.

In many settings and conversations mental health is a hot topic and now considered just as important as physical health. What’s even more fascinating to me is how celebrities like Bishop T. D. Jakes, Taraji P. Henson, Kanye West, Beyonce and so many others are shedding light on the importance of mental health. Now counselors are being called upon more than ever to provide treatment for individuals who are suffering from depression and anxiety. As a counselor I am thrilled to know that so many people are taking the time and addressing these issues. However, there are some people who are still struggling with asking for help.

Are you ready for a change? Then, you do not have to do this alone! I am a passionate and empathetic therapist prepared to take this journey with you. My approach is based on the premise that people are inherently good and can change when given the proper coping skills, resources, and opportunities for self-actualization. I believe the client/therapist relationship is an essential factor in therapy. I have experience leading clients through their concerns with anxiety, depression, major life decisions, challenging life transitions, trauma, anger, adjustment issues, career-related issues, and maternal mental health.

There is no denying that life brings both joy and sorrow. Have you found yourself holding it together and pretending to be ok on the outside but you’re falling apart on the inside? Are you consumed by worry, fear, doubt and constantly question what the future holds for you? Do you feel lost, numb, or alone? If the statements above sound like you, there is hope! You don’t have to go through this difficult time alone. I can help! You and I will work together identifying strengths you already have to improve and navigate the world around you. This therapeutic process may bring laughter and sometimes tears but ultimately healing.

Does it feel like you are constantly in a pattern of being undervalued, misunderstood, and overwhelmed? Do you feel like you know “better” but don't always "do better?"

I know firsthand what it feels like to show up for myself, even when I don’t feel it. I specialize in working to support clients in developing a sense of stability and confidence, self-esteem and personal growth, overcoming intimacy issues, and becoming the best version of themselves.
