I’m a therapist who believes in a person-centered approach.
Seeing a therapist is beneficial in good times and in bad. Start where you are, and as your therapist, I’ll help you explore strategies and skills to help you reach your goals and lead a more fulfilling life. As a therapist in North Carolina, I value the courage it takes to find and start seeing a therapist, and I’m excited to get to know more about you.
Typically, my therapy sessions last one hour. When I first begin meeting with a client, I recommend weekly or biweekly sessions, so we can work on building our relationship, and I can get to know you and your goals.
As a therapist, my approach to therapy is extremely person-centered. I’ve always had a passion for helping people, and my job as a therapist lets me build meaningful relationships that provide direction and clarity. I know that everyone comes into therapy with a different history and with different needs, so my role is to figure out exactly where you are and help you determine where you want to be.
All sessions are provided in a safe space and nonjudgmental environment. I want you to feel just as comfortable talking to me as you would an old friend, the difference being that I am here to help you heal, cope, and move forward.
I am excited to start on your therapy journey with you. For more information about my therapy options or to book your first appointment, contact me at ASCH Counseling and Development, PLLC today.

FAQs About Finding the Right Therapist
Finding a therapist can be overwhelming due to the variety of therapy styles, credentials, and approaches available. However, finding the correct fit can make a significant impact in your mental health journey, resulting in greater outcomes and a stronger therapeutic partnership. Whether you’re struggling with specific issues such as anxiety or depression, going through a big life change, or simply looking for personal improvement, choosing a therapist that meets your specific requirements is critical. Some questions you may have as you search for a therapist are answered below.
How do I begin looking for a therapist?
Begin by determining what you want from your sessions. Are you looking for support with a specific mental health illness, such as anxiety or depression? Do you need help navigating life transitions or relationship issues? After identifying your needs, narrowing your choices can be easier.
How can I determine if a therapist is qualified?
Qualified therapists typically have advanced degrees in psychology, counseling, or social work, as well as licensure in their specialty. Look for credentials and verify their licensing status in your area. Additionally, many therapists have specialized training in certain areas, so feel free to inquire about their background and skills.
What questions should I ask during a consultation?
In a consultation, you may ask questions such as, “What is your therapeutic approach?” “How do you maintain confidentiality?” “How often do you meet with clients, and how long do the appointments last?” This is also a good moment to evaluate their communication style and determine if it is the right fit for your needs.
