If you’re an individual who is currently stuck or in a life transition, I’m here to help you maximize your true potential, find your clear purpose and release the power within. Life transitions and challenges are personal and unique. And although they can be abrupt and sometimes predictable, we all experience them throughout our lives. Stressors are often emotional taxing changes that create uncertainty and confusion. These life changing events cause us to re-examine our present sense of being and evaluate our priorities. I will help you envision the future that you want, create goals, then help you pursue those goals. To realize this plan, you’ll need a coach, a partner, an ally during the difficult process of transition. You are the expert! You know yourself! I ask powerful questions and help to facilitate positive change. I am committed to serving you as your accountability partner, therapist, and ally during this time of uncertainty and definite change. As your therapist, I can help you develop healthy coping mechanisms to adapt to the stress surrounding your current circumstances.


I have extensive experience in providing the tools, strategies, and support to help others create meaningful change in their lives. As a professional certified life coach, entrepreneur, licensed clinical mental health counselor and part time professor, I know first-hand, the challenges of struggling to find balance, ignite passion and seting goals. I hold a Ph.D. in Counselor Education from UNC-Charlotte. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, (LCMHC) a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist (LCAS), and a Certified Clinical Supervisor (CCS). I have three years of teaching experience at a local university teaching graduate students in the field of counseling. I am experienced psychotherapist whom specializes in child and adolescent behavioral therapy, military families, trauma, addiction counseling, parenting, mood disorders, and counselor training & supervision.

As a dual-licensed counselor in mental health and substance use, I believe caring for our whole body health means prioritizing our psychological and emotional well-being. It's not always easy to ask for help when we need it, so I admire your courage to seek help! I have worked in the mental health field for about 10 years, but for the last few years, I have worked as a licensed counselor supporting adults who experience a range of mental health challenges including trauma and PTSD, anxiety, and depression.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • North Carolina


Hello, My name is Denise but I go by Dee Dee. Thank you for being here right now and choosing counseling for yourself! :)

Counseling and looking for a counselor is not an easy decision. (I offer 15 mins. consultation first). It is important for you decide what is best for you and I would love to talk about your needs for counseling first! :D

Counseling and/or Therapy encourages others while seeing the positives when at times it's hard to see that in yourself. You are worth this investment in yourself and a path through pain. I believe counseling is imperative to find the solutions to some of your emotional and body's struggles. I would love the chance to help you walk through the struggles in your life and help you find hope.

I specialize in using brain, heart, and body and how to integrate all three. Wellness is so important to mental health, too.

I hope that I can help you not only find health but healing. I work with all people individually except couple/marriage counseling.

In the end, when we are broken, we all need someone to help us along the way. :) Most of us, including me, found that and we are just passing it forward.
