I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina with more than 7 years of experience. A healthy mind is required to reach your full potential. Therapy allows you to take necessary steps in achieving goals. I assist with improving relationships, happiness at work, the loss of a loved one, effective parenting skills, depression, or suicidal/homicidal thoughts. My skills and expertise will assist you in reaching goals. Change takes time, but progress should be made in a reasonable amount of time. Your success and happiness with treatment is measured by results. If you are tired of being in a "slump" because you are just unhappy with your situation, take that first step and contact me.

Hello! You can call me Cai. I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, certified personal trainer. AMGA Climbing Wall Instructor, and somatic coach. I love dogs, I'm a world traveler, rock climber, somatic abolitionist, BIPoC, queer, and neuro-divergent, therapist. For new clients, please know that while I put some regularly occurring appointment times on my calendar, that my schedule varies, and is set-up to support you for 4-8 sessions. If after 4-8 sessions your goals, our schedules, and fit align, I am happy to discuss ongoing sessions. In my experience, 4-8 sessions with me works best if you are seeking to dive into experiential and somatic work, are seeking more support while working through a specific situation or recent life change, or have a specific, personal-growth goal. I tend to work from a somatic lens, will teach coping skills when asked or it is appropriate to offer, cuss sometimes, throw in some humor, work intuitively, and through experiential process. I welcome other therapists, teens, climbers, marginalized folx, and anyone drawn to something they’ve read here.

I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina. I have worked as a licensed therapist over the past 9 years providing individual and family therapy as well as couple therapy in various settings including telehealth. I have worked with individuals (adolescents, adults, men & women) with a wide range of concerns such as depression, anxiety, attention deficit, bipolar, anger management problems, marital/relationship issues, parenting problems, sexual problems, and career concerns. These problems often cause major disruptions in our daily life. My approach is often solution focus, client and holistic centered but I also can use other approaches to cater to the person’s needs. I believe that it is very important to look at the whole person (environment, family, medical, financial, etc.) instead of just the presenting problems. I like to take a nonjudgmental, caring, and respectful approach to help the person navigate through their journey and learn how to cope with their daily life stressors by using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) Motivational Interviewing (MI), Solution-Focus Therapy, and Reality Therapy. I know taken the first step to seeking therapy is big and anxiety invoking but if you take the first step, I will take the rest of the steps with you. I look forward to working with you soon.

Sometimes we feel 'stuck.' Sometimes we experience negative emotions which we feel conflict with our values, morals, ideals. Sometimes we feel an emptiness. Like our inner flame...the one which burns inside, pushing us to set & pursue goals, dream, live life with a sense of anticipation...has dimmed, until just an ember. Sometimes our negative life experiences get us caught up in the lies of guilt and shame. Paralyzing us. Keeping us from moving forward. Perhaps it's more than 'just' feelings and emotions. Maybe symptoms of mental illness make life hard. And navigating through life, each day, each moment, feels like tedious work. However...please know there is help. There is hope. There is healing. There is so much more to life than what you may be currently experiencing. I have years of experience serving others. I have taught middle school and high school English; worked as a therapist in community mental health and private practice; and worked as a school counselor. I am a counselor who is a Christian. And although I truly believe that the spiritual aspects of an individual’s whole self should be explored and nurtured in therapy, whether or not we explore the spiritual dimension of life will be up to you. I have a passion working with those who feel they are not living life to its fullest. Why? Because I truly believe each of us has the ability to fully participate in a life which excites and fulfills.
