Aligned Counseling and Supervision
Healing for anxious hearts, zooming brains, & the body just trying to hold it all together
Specialized Counseling Services:
01
Your achievements don’t feel satisfying, you can't turn off your work brain, and “good enough” feels out of reach. I specialize in helping high-achieving professionals break free from perfectionism and burnout using neuroscience-based therapy that creates lasting change so that you can finally enjoy the success you've worked so hard to build.
02
You’ve built the career you wanted, but you’re mentally exhausted, can't turn off work thoughts, and wonder if success is supposed to feel this draining. I help high-achieving professionals transform their relationship with achievement at the root level so that you can maintain your success while still enjoying your life, relationships, and the wins you’ve worked so hard for.
03
For parents who love their kids but feel overwhelmed by conflicting advice, constant second-guessing, and the gap between the parent they want to be and how they’re showing up when stressed. If you’ve found yourself searching fifteen different parenting blogs at midnight for the "right" answer about screen time while your partner sleeps peacefully, unaware you've been doom-scrolling parenting advice for two hours straight, this is for you.
04
Teen counseling is for high-achieving teens who are externally successful, but are dealing with anxiety and perfectionism on the inside. This is for you if you’re a student who gets straight A's and captains two teams, but you had a panic attack in the bathroom before your AP exam that nobody knows about.
05
Therapy for recently divorced moms rebuilding their identity. Figure out who you are now, deepen your relationship with your kids, and make choices that feel right for your family, not what everyone else says you “should” do.
06
Specialized therapy for academics feeling overcommitted and overwhelmed. Get clarity on whether or not you can stay in academia without losing yourself, set limits that protect your energy, and stop white-knuckling your way through each semester.
Supervision & Consultation Services:
01
Online individual and group clinical supervision for counselors with their LCMHC-A who are located in North Carolina.
02

04
