I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina, bringing 14 years of dedication to helping clients navigate life's most difficult challenges. Think of me as your partner in healing and change. My expertise spans a wide range of issues, including trauma recovery, communication problems, family dynamics, parenting, career, the meaning of life, and life satisfaction. I am passionate about empowering individuals who are struggling with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, bipolar disorder, family/parenting conflicts, the impacts of past and present trauma and abuse, as well as many other issues of life. My Therapeutic Approach is Skill-Building and Deep Exploration, if needed. My approach, like many therapists, is eclectic. I use many modalities and you help choose the main one that is best for you. My foundational approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a highly effective method that equips you with strategies and coping skills for immediate relief and long-term change for life. I enrich this by drawing from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Positive Psychology, Existential Therapy, Experiential Therapy, and somatic therapies, such as Polyvagal Theory ensuring you develop a robust and personalized toolkit. For clients ready to explore deeper, we venture into those vulnerable places that facilitate profound healing and lasting transformation. I am highly specialized in trauma work where you do not have to narrate your entire story, utilizing proven, research-based modalities like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), EMDR, and The Flash Technique to gently and effectively process trauma memories and false beliefs thereby reducing the triggers that you experience. A great deal of therapy with me is a Collaborative Path to Self-Awareness. A significant portion of healing involves becoming aware of the patterns where your thoughts, feelings, and actions intersect and cause distress. To foster this awareness and shift unhelpful mindsets, I integrate evidence-based interventions such as mindfulness, guided meditation, and brief exposure when appropriate. I give my recommendations but you make the decision what you want to learn and apply. My therapy is client-led and highly collaborative. We will choose interventions—which can include spirituality or solution-focused therapy, if you wish—that best align with your personality and goals. I provide an empathetic, nonjudgmental, and compassionate presence—the bedrock for successful therapy. I also believe in gently challenging you when I see incongruence, as growth often lies just outside your comfort zone. I consider myself your cheerleader, committed to building a strong therapeutic relationship, which research shows is the single largest factor (80%) in your healing and achieving your full potential. I look forward to working with you through your journey of healing.

I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor in the state of North Carolina. I having been working in this field for over 25 years. I am fortunate to have been afforded the opportunity to work in a variety of settings. These settings include substance abuse treatment, mental health crises, domestic violence, critical incidences, youth corrections, individual, couples and family counseling. I have worked with clients who have had issues with depression, anxiety, stress and psychsocial problems. While I have benefitted greatly from these experiences, I believe myself to be most effective in individual counseling. I have taken the benefit of all these experiences and combined them to be the best counselor I can be. No matter the initial presentation of my clients, their issues tend to fall into one or more of the areas of my experience. As a therapist, my theoretical approaches tend to be solution focused, reality based with an emphasis on how my client views him or herself and the world around them. I believe we all make decisions and exhibit individual behaviors based on what we perceive is happening to us and the world around us. My goal is to help my clients determine if their beliefs, as well as their actions, are helping them be the best they can be. In addition to that, I work to ensure that my clients have the emotional tools they need to appropriately and effectively manage the emotional ups and downs of life. As I see it, life is "a continuum of temporary circumstances that we all must navigate the best we can with the skills we have". My calling is to serve others, with the hope that I can contribute in some way to helping them make their lives better..

I am an African American female Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois and I started my career in the counseling field in 2001, as a group home counselor for at-risk male youths, homeless young male adults, and their families, where we worked on family reunification, substance abuse, LGBTQ+ Issues, job skills, life skills, and independent living. From there I moved more into the substance abuse field working with DUI offenders, court mandated persons ordered to do anger management, and as an interventionist for families, and individuals who struggle with all forms of addiction and co-dependency. Since then, I returned to school to obtain my masters in Clinical Mental Health, during which time I worked with individuals who struggled with family issues, depression, suicide, grief and loss, schizophrenia disorder, bi-polar disorder, anxiety disorder, PTSD, dually diagnosed individuals, and those with other co-occurring disorders in an outpatient hospital clinic setting. I then furthered my career and obtained a second master's degree in School Counseling, where I enveloped experience in working with students in an inner-city school setting who struggled with body image, depression, suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, LGBTQ+ issues, ADHD, ADD, OCD, neighborhood trauma, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, physical abuse, and post-traumatic stress disorder. My primary therapeutic orientations are cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy; however, I strongly believe that it is essential to meet a person "where they are at" and establish a therapeutic alliance using my developed professional skills and eclectic abilities to provide each individual with a therapeutic orientation is necessary to move them toward a place of peace and healing. I believe in the purpose of counseling and I believe that even the most skeptical can become a believer! METAMORPHOSIS is the process of change into something adult, mature and breathtaking. I would like to think that I've been entrusted by clients to help them transition into living a better life, so that they may spread their wings and fly! My goal is to uplift, empower, teach, and motivate those who struggle to work toward living a healthy and happy lifestyle. My commitment is to provide the best clinical services each person deserves with dignity and respect and there has been no greater pleasure for me other than to be blessed with the opportunities to work with individuals in this field of healing and the transformation of lives.

Psychotherapy helps in managing your feelings, making better choices, and removing the obstacles to your goals. As a licensed psychotherapist I work with individuals, couples, and families from diverse cultural backgrounds dealing with emotional difficulties, relationship problems and various psychological conditions. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, and adjustment disorders. My goal is to help my clients define what they truly want, and then help them manage the obstacles that get in their way. We will explore symptoms and concerns in the context of your personality, your history, and patterns in how you have come to deal with your feelings. I believe change occurs in therapy as you begin to understand unconscious patterns in the way you think, feel, and relate to others.

Does BetterHelp take insurance?

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?
The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour.

- With therapists: $100-300

Is BetterHelp right for me?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide.

Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.
Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Bailey is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

There are also many types of therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a counselor can be dependent on your process.

For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Bailey, North Carolina can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
