Are you struggling with past trauma, disordered eating, or low self-worth? Therapy can feel daunting, but I will create a warm and safe space explore your challenges. We'll embark on a collaborative journey, fostering self-compassion through a mind-body approach. As an Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to help heal past wounds and empower you to reach your full potential. If EMDR isn't for you, I can offer an integrative approach using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and somatic/mindfulness-based practices. Together, we'll build a strong foundation for therapy based on trust and active listening. I prioritize building a client-centered approach through trust and active listening, where your voice is paramount. Seeking help is a courageous step, and I'm here to support you on your path to healing and growth.

Hello! Are you finding that college isn't quite what you thought it would be? I get it...it's a tough transition and a steep learning curve. Anxiety, homesickness, some grief, comparison, high expectations, new ways of communicating, living on your own, conflict with roommates, and that might only describe the first semester! There are then decisions to make about your interests, to study abroad or not, where to intern, what organizations and extracurriculars to get involved in, feeling too stretched for time and unable to manage all responsibilities well, the stress of a job or your athletic demands. You don't have to navigate this alone––I can help! I specialize in helping students navigate these issues and more through a lens of self-compassion, skill-building, and a sense of empowerment. These issues are not unique to you and you can learn to build resilience and tools that will help you now and in your future.

Life was supposed to get easier after high school, after college, after landing your dream job... but something still feels missing. Despite feeling like you have things 'figured out', you struggle to settle in and find balance. I specialize in working with anxiety, perfectionism and trauma. Some of the techniques I use when working with clients include EMDR, ERP, and sandray. Curiosity and compassion are the basis to my counseling approach. I know that reaching out for counseling for yourself can be a vulnerable process. If you’ve worked hard to figure it out on your own or are feeling like you’ve tried it all, it’s time to take a creative approach together. In our sessions, we will work together at your pace to understand the layers of your experience. I hope to help you find self-compassion, new perspectives, and healing

Therapy is all about growth for an individual. Growth can sometimes be a scary thing. Oftentimes, growth feels like staring into the darkness with the expectation of walking forward without falling. Whether you struggle with mental illness or you just need extra support in life, I can help you walk through the darkness of the unknown. The beautiful thing that therapy offers is this: you can create your own light. As we walk through the darkness, you will begin to see more and more light. Gradually, the path will become more clear and YOU can choose the next direction. I am an expert in the field of clinical mental health and I have worked with all ages. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, corporate stress, and relationship issues. We can walk through the dark unknown together as you begin to create you own light and path for your life! All you have to do is take that first step. Currently licensed and taking clients in both NC and SC.

You may be the one who keeps it together for everyone else, always striving, always overanalyzing. But inside, you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or not quite “enough.” Whether you’re navigating anxiety, struggling in your relationships, or feeling stuck in cycles of self-doubt, therapy can offer a space to breathe, reflect, and rebuild. I help teens and adults understand their inner world and reconnect with themselves. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in real conversation. I’ll meet you where you are, and together we’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck and how to move forward. I integrate tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), attachment-based therapy, and experiential therapy. Therapy with me isn’t about perfection, it’s about creating a space where you can be honest and supported without judgment. You’ll gain insight, learn how to manage your emotions with more confidence, and develop more secure relationships. If you're feeling unsure where to start, that’s okay. You don’t have to have it all figured out before reaching out.

Therapy is not only helpful for treating mental illness or the most severe traumas; it can help with every aspect of life, from every day worries to the most devastating situations. My work for the past 10 years has involved helping children, teens, adults, and families find healing in difficult situations. This is my life's purpose, and I plan to continue this path by furthering my knowledge and providing high quality care to my clients. I have experience working with a broad range of disorders, including ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and trauma, just to name a few.  I use a holistic approach in my work, where I consider not only mental factors, but also physical and spiritual factors. I combine aspects of traditional talk therapy with non-traditional approaches, including breathe therapy and meditation. I am certified in Eco-Systemic Family Therapy and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Empowering others to become leaders in their lives, no matter their life circumstances, is my goal for everyone who I am privileged to meet and work with. I welcome anyone who is in need of extra tools to help them along on their life journey. I look forward to joining you on your path to healing and accomplishing your goals.

It can be a challenge to find your center or balance when everything around you seems to be out of your control. Things are happening so fast and it can be scary. Searching for your true self in a world that adds filters to glamorize everyday life is a struggle. It can be difficult to find the balance between assertiveness, passiveness, honesty and consideration. Therapy is a space that is yours to discover answers to the questions that keep you up at night or cause you to overthink an "awkward" encounter with someone. Therapy is a safe and confidential space to explore who you are; to name, understand and better manage emotions. Take the opportunity to seek growth in your personal, professional, academic and/or romantic life. We can identify reasonable boundaries and coping strategies that support your mental and emotional well-being. You can let go of feeling misunderstood, underestimated, unseen or lost. Because you are worthy. So, let's find your light together. It is hard to trust a stranger to take this journey with you; therapists are special kind of people. Our job is to help others and provide a space that is nurturing to your needs. You deserve to take advantage of that. I invite you to call or send an email anytime. We can schedule a free consultation to help determine if I am the right fit for you.

Garner, NC

I know what it's like to be a college student and struggling with your mental health. It's a difficult and isolating experience. Finding healing in my clinical depression and anxiety was ultimately what led me to become a therapist, to help others like you going through it, too. When we talk about your thoughts and emotions, I know what you're going through and that pain you're experiencing. I also know the power of having a Christian counselor walk alongside you when your Christian faith is important to you. As a believer and therapist, I want to offer you both--a place where Jesus + therapy can co-exist. I offer Christian counseling to young women struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma/PTSD, and cross-cultural adjustment. I integrate clinical techniques along with Scripture and prayer, if you desire, as you work towards healing, renewal and hope! Send me an email today. Let's get started!

My approach to therapy centers around the belief that every individual has inherent dignity, and is worthy to be seen, heard, and cared for. Anyone is welcome into my office. Every life experience is unique, and often these experiences can carry specific hurts, pains and sorrows. When life feels overwhelmingly challenging and burdensome, counseling can be a wonderful mechanism to assist in times of need. I believe that peace and joy are possible, and that no story is hopeless, because no story is done being written. As a client, I want you to feel safe and most importantly, listened to. As you get the chance to share your story with me, my goal is to build trust with you and help establish what you'd like to work on. According to your specific wants and needs, we will collaborate together and use a variety of therapeutic approaches to get you to a better place. Whatever season you're in, you don't have to walk it alone. Please don't hesitate to reach out to find what you need during this time.

Pre-Licensed Professional
Waxhaw, NC

Hi! My name is Karin and I am a licensed mental health counselor. I work with many different presenting concerns and help students tackle any difficulties that come up in their everyday life. In working together, my intention is and will always be to foster an environment that is filled with safety and trust, as well as void of judgment. Being vulnerable can be very difficult on its own, and it’s essential to me to create a space where vulnerability does not come with any more obstacles or barriers. I understand how hard it can be to talk about our problems and the issues we struggle with on a daily basis, and it’s important to me to create an environment where it is easier to talk about what’s going on. I deeply enjoy working with clients from all backgrounds and cultures and having the privilege to provide support along the way. I would love to meet you. Please reach out.
