Therapists for college students near Duke University
My mission is to walk alongside teenage and college-aged women, children, and families on their journey towards health and flourishing. I believe in a holistic approach to counseling that addresses the emotional, psychological, social, and spiritual facets of who we are. As a former student I understand the severe challenges college can bring. I am seeking to care for those struggling with depression, anxiety, self-harm, trauma, life transitions, and personal growth. I desire to be a light in the darkness and a source of hope and comfort for others in their own seasons of struggle. I am also happy to incorporate faith and spirituality in the counseling process upon request. I am a counseling intern under supervision pursuing my Master's degree in Christian Marriage, Family, and Individual Counseling from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner licensed in both Virginia and North Carolina, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive, evidence-based mental health care to individuals across the lifespan. My practice is grounded in a holistic, person-centered approach that emphasizes therapeutic alliance, trauma-informed care, and culturally sensitive interventions. I am committed to improving access to quality psychiatric services, particularly in underserved communities, through compassionate assessment, accurate diagnosis, and individualized treatment planning that may include psychotherapy, psychoeducation, and medication management.
From the beginning, Carolinas Counseling Group has been committed to combining clinical expertise & current psychological research with the timeless wisdom of a Christian worldview. All of our therapists are fully licensed in the state of North Carolina and are committed Christians. Although all of us are Christians, we welcome all faith or non-religious perspectives. We commit that we will do all we can to help you feel welcome and free from any pressure to believe like we do. It is our goal for you to feel safe from critical judgment. At the same time, we want to convey our commitment to care for you and your loved ones within the framework of deep respect derived from our faith.
I enjoy working with humans from all walks of life who’d like some support and to be able to process their feelings and trauma. We laugh, we cry and we get through it, together.
Hey, take a seat, get comfy! Life throws a lot at us, and it can feel like an uphill battle. So, let me start with this - no matter how messy it may seem, I'm here to listen. It can sometimes feel that society, one’s generation, or our own community has not prioritized our emotional wellbeing. This is our time to navigate the potentially spooky world of vulnerability in a nonjudgmental space. Whether it means we're going to dive into some anxious or depressive thoughts and feelings, explore life transitions you’re going through, or hold space for processing any trauma, this is where we work as a team to navigate these challenges. I provide both virtual and in-person sessions for individuals. I use an approach that works to bridge action steps with emotional attunement. With CBT, Solution-focused techniques, and Polyvagal Theory, I am here to help you discover what path you want to walk. If you find yourself seated across from me, I am a listener, an advocate, and a collaborator. If you can put up with the occasional pun or dad joke, I hope to hear from you! Here at Born to Bend Mental Health & Wellness, PLLC, we offer a safe, nonjudgmental environment. LGBTQ individuals, persons of color, and others marginalized by society are welcome.
Feel hopeless, frustrated, and helpless in constant negotiation of your wants and needs? Struggling to say 'no' or prioritize self-care? Discover the transformative power of prioritizing yourself, unlocking joy, peace, and contentment. You are worthy, despite feeling unworthy. Embrace daily self-love and care, find fulfillment, and smile on the inside with my guidance. I help women with self esteem issues due to trauma increase self love for their greatest transformation. I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to let their internal light shine bright. Let's start the journey of healing.
I have a passion for getting to know the unique person that you are, and discovering ways to challenge and empower you. My goal is to help make you comfortable with change, and achieve the life goals that you have for yourself. I typically work with college students who are struggling to find the motivation to succeed and setting goals that feel like a good fit/realistic for them.
I am an LCMHC (#17753), as well as a National Board Certified Counselor (1674955). I approach counseling with the foundational belief that every individual has inherent value and worth. Because of that, I believe a fulfilled life is worth pursuing. I desire to create an environment of trust for clients through genuineness and empathy. This foundation provides a place to heal and grow through the challenges of life, and fosters the development of helpful awareness and tools to increase life functioning and satisfaction.
