Psychiatric Nurse/Therapist, PMHNP, CNM, PMH-C
Now accepting new clients! Excellent listening skills and empathy come with the 14 years I served as a certified nurse midwife prior to becoming a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, which ultimately led me to the decision of becoming a perinatal mental health certified practitioner. I have a passion for caring for pregnant and postpartum clients, but also offer general psychiatric services to anyone ages 18-64 experiencing mild to moderate mental health conditions.
For those interested in a faith-based approach to mental health care, I have additional training in Christian mental health coaching, but this is not a requirement for treatment.

Therapy is more than talking. It is a collaborative relationship where we identify your goals, offer perspective, give you tools, and help you turn your insights into action.

So every therapist will say they want clients to feel genuinely understood, and I think they do, but I've watched a few whole anime series that I don't personally like just to get more insight on a teen client, and I've read books and research journals for adult clients with unusual circumstances. I only mention it to point out that I'm highly motivated to "get" someone's experience, whatever that may be. I’m committed to honoring each client’s right to self-determination, guiding them toward their own goals rather than imposing my personal views. Part of that is also letting clients in on my thought process "behind the scenes" as much as I can.

Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist in NC, Authorized PsyPact Practitioner in 40 states
I have been a licensed therapist since 1987 when I was a professor of Counseling Psychology at the University of Missouri. I've continued to help my clients learn to love and accept themselves, whether in individual or couples therapy, executives and their teams, or women in prison. I pay attention to Body, Mind, and Spirit as we work, as I believe we must recognize the interaction of all three. Clients comment that despite feeling safe with me, they feel challenged to face themselves.
