“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”
— Maya Angelou
Welcome. I provide depth-oriented therapy for adults with natural life problems causing unhappiness and distress. Located in Cary, near the Raleigh-Durham area, I specialize in disorders that affect the balance between the brain and the body, such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, personality disorders, and other chronic health concerns.​Through consistent, committed therapeutic work, patients develop greater self-awareness, emotional flexibility, and more satisfying relationships. Many of the people I work with are reflective, high-functioning adults who have made multiple attempts at treatment and are ready to approach their difficulties with thoughtfulness, curiosity, and patience.
