Relationship Issues Therapists in Mint Hill, NC

I work with couples using the Gottman Method and am also AASECT certified therapist and treat all sexual disorders, both with couples and with individuals. I treat all relationship issues, including affair recovery, out of control sexual behavior and ambiguity about whether or not to stay together. I specialize in addressing all kinds of intimacy issues, physical, emotional etc. As a sex therapist I treat desire discrepancy within a couple, erectile difficulties and problems with orgasm, along with any other sexual issues. I feel uniquely qualified to help couples as sexual issues are so often a part of a problematic relationship.

My practice is built on the desire to help individuals and couples create lasting relationships and firm foundations for the future. Life happens! Children grow up and marriages struggle. You go through transitions where old skills need revising and new skills need to be built. Don't wait until your personal or relationship stress starts to affect your ability to work or enjoy the rest of your life. Now is the time to call and come in to assess what is going on for you.

In some ways I've been where you are--going through a directory looking for support and not being sure if the person on the other side is going to be able to help you. Maybe you're very clear about what you want to work on, maybe you're just not feeling like your best self and don't even know why. I've been on both sides of the helping relationship for a long time and I believe our lived experience, from our race/gender/sexual orientation to our birth order to even our line of work impacts us in ongoing, evolving ways. I'm someone who can give you honest feedback, challenge you, & hold space for your emotions with empathy.

I am a clinical psychologist with over 30 years experience helping adults and adolescents resolve problems, improve relationships and achieve important life goals. I have worked with a wide range of issues. My areas of special interest include working with individuals undergoing emotional distress (depression, anxiety, fear and anger), relationship difficulties (getting along with spouse, family, friends or co-workers), adjustment to a change in one's life (loss of a loved one, separation/divorce, change in health status or work).

Therapy offers a place and relationship in which to be heard, to be understood and to experience growth and change. My practice offers opportunities to a wide variety of people for insight and understanding that makes a difference in how life is lived. Therapy begins with the development of a meaningful relationship grounded in compassion, patience and appreciation for your needs and personal experiences.I work with individuals seeking general insight and self-discovery to those suffering from chronic or debilitating issues. My practice involves work with individuals, couples and families.

As a seasoned therapist with over 13 years of clinical mental health experience, I specialize in supporting individuals who have faced traumas and many other stressors life may bring. My passion lies in helping clients overcome life's challenges using evidence-based interventions like TF-CBT, CBT, DBT, and attachment-based tools. In my practice, I work closely with children and adults dealing with anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. Witnessing my clients grow and confidently navigating their healing journeys brings me immense joy.

I strive to create a safe space that is client centered and holistic, meeting my clients where they are at. I have worked primarily with adolescents, adults and couples. I enjoy working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety and depression. People who are striving to overcome symptoms, look for self-improvement that fits their lifestyle and goals, and create meaningful positive relationships both in and outside of the session. Furthermore, couples who are struggling, have felt a growing distance, or just want to increase their communication and intimacy can work collaboratively with me to improve their relationship!

Do you find yourself struggling through one of life's many changes? Heraclitus, a Greek philosopher, has been quoted as saying “change is the only constant in life.” Many of us have a love-hate relationship with change, as transitions can bring some of the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Whether you are going through changes in your relationships, career, stage of life or just feel stuck and need a change, I am here to help you on your journey.

I believe clients have the right to be heard and listened to in a non-judgmental, warm, and open environment. I incorporate large doses of humor and compassion within each session, helping to give you the most beneficial and comfortable experience. I would value the opportunity to explore the life issues that have brought you to this site. Making the first call is extremely difficult; yet the most important step towards finding a meaningful partnership with a therapist that can help guide you. I specialize in mindful and value based approaches to help move towards a life filled with vitality.

The typical clients I work with are like you and me, usually have successful careers, have a faith orientation, although not always, and have a tremendous longing to find, repair, or revitalize something gone wrong in themselves or in relationship with those closest. They are individuals and couples who are hurting at their core, who want more than just a quick fix, a few techniques, or merely a listening ear. They want answers, real, deep, transforming answers. They realize deep down that it is probably going to take longer than they want or expect. But, they are longing and willing to do whatever it takes to get to a better place

You may be struggling with an important relationship; being overwhelmed by the impact of past trauma; exploring your sexuality or gender identity; navigating the world safely because of systemic oppression and injustice; facing financial hardship; feeling lost; learning to manage a health condition; feeling unable to connect with family; experiencing unexplained anger; or a thousand other things that there isn't room to list. It is my job and my hope to empower you by providing an empathic, safe, and supportive environment in which to explore struggles, pain, and roadblocks such that opportunities for help and growth can emerge.

My experience with clients include those who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, postpartum, and life challenges. As one takes the step to come to therapy, it is important to work together to focus on what concerns they may have, where they would like to be, and how to get there. As a therapist, I will work to help give you, the client, the tools needed to meet these goals. Through talk therapy, we work through different techniques and challenges to find what works best for you. Everyone is different - including clients. What works best for you is the direction we go in.
