What's your experience with clients with anxiety?
Anxiety and panic is my niche! I have studied neuroplasticity and rewiring the anxious brain. Fascinating! My approach begins with teaching the client a little bit about the anxiety response cycle and the physiological changes that the human body experiences. Then, I use a cognitive behavioral approach so that the client can effectively manage anxiety so that it no longer interferes with their functioning.
Do you constantly worry? Do you overthink plans and solutions to worst-case outcomes so that you feel prepared? Does everything have to be done perfectly? Do you have difficulty handling uncertainty? Do you fear making the wrong decision? Do you feel restless? Difficulty with sleep? Do you move from relationship to relationship? Viktor Frankl said, “When we are no longer able to change a situation -we are challenged to change ourselves." He really knew what he was talking about. Each life transition inevitably forces us to navigate "stormy waters." If the challenge has become overwhelming, it's time to get some help. I specialize in helping those suffering from anxiety, including health care professionals and veterans. You don't have to continue suffering. You deserve to feel better. As a seasoned therapist, I can help you feel empowered to stop the cycle of worry and anxiety, find your sense of purpose, and reclaim your life. The good news is that we've all gone through seasons of our lives when we feel this way. The first step is to reach out to someone for help. My approach is straightforward: together we will identify your goals, establish a problem-solving treatment plan, and go from there. If something is telling you it's time to begin your journey; give me a call.

What's your experience with clients with anxiety?
I take a holistic approach in treating anxiety and panic disorder as with ANY other struggles. I help the client to look at all aspects of their lives (e.g., stress, trauma, isolation, fears, relationship, work and or school stressors, lifestyle, food, sleep patterns, nutrition, spiritual life, and medical issues) that might contribute to their current struggles. I utilize special breathing techniques, mediations, CBT therapy, and special interventions that specifically target and reduce anxiety and panic. Life presents us with so many unexpected challenges and transitions. You may feel overwhelmed, demotivated, detached or even hopeless. At New Directions Psychotherapies I’ll walk alongside you to help you create emotional balance and overall wellness, freeing you from whatever it is that is keeping you stuck or blocked from achieving your goals and living life to the fullest. 
As your therapist, I empathically listen while doing my best to answer any questions that may arise in therapy. This approach creates a forum where the client feels comfortable to share their struggles and helps them alleviate barriers and fosters an authentic therapeutic connection. I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor LCMHCS in NC and LPC in SC and Board Certified National Certified Counselor and have also completed a two-year professional addiction counselor-training program with several years clinical experience working with addictions. I'm also certified by the AACC to treat sexual addictions.         I treat all types of psychological issues, specializing in work with Individuals with Depression, Anxiety, OCD, Panic Disorder and Grief/Loss, Life Transitions, Couples and Family Therapy. I also possess years of experience working with addictions (i.e., sex and relationship addictions, alcohol, drugs, food, etc.).
