Therapists for college students near 27705

At Clarity Cove Counseling, we specialize in helping children, teens, adults, and families navigate anxiety, ADHD, trauma, school and work stress, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. Many of the people who come to us are bright, capable, and caring but underneath, they may be overthinking everything, putting enormous pressure on themselves, struggling with confidence, feeling overwhelmed by expectations, or simply not feeling like themselves. Parents may be wondering how to help a child who is anxious, shutting down, struggling socially, or having big emotions. Adults may look like they have everything together while privately feeling exhausted, stuck, disconnected, or caught in the same patterns over and over again. We help our clients understand what's happening beneath the surface and develop practical tools they can use in everyday life. That might look like a teen learning to manage anxiety without avoiding the things that matter to them, a student finding strategies that make ADHD more manageable, or a child learning to understand and regulate big emotions. For adults, progress might look like quieting the constant mental noise, setting boundaries without feeling consumed by guilt, understanding how past experiences are affecting present relationships, responding rather than reacting, and letting go of the pressure to always hold everything together. It can mean feeling more confident in your decisions, more connected in your relationships, and more like yourself again. For families, change might look like calmer mornings, fewer power struggles, more open conversations, and parents feeling more confident about how to support their child without constantly wondering if they're doing the right thing. Our goal isn't simply to help you feel better during a therapy session. We want what happens in the therapy room to translate into real life, at home, at school, at work, in your relationships, and in the way you see yourself. Located in Mooresville, NC, Clarity Cove Counseling offers a warm, down-to-earth space where you can feel understood, build meaningful skills, work through what's keeping you stuck, and begin creating a life that feels calmer, more connected, and more like your own.

I work with college students who are tired of overthinking everything, worrying they did something wrong, and feeling misunderstood—even when they're trying really hard to get it right. Maybe there was a lot of stress growing up. Someone you love may have had a hard childhood of their own, struggled with addiction or mental health, or there was simply a lot going on. You may have learned to notice what other people needed, keep the peace, or grow up pretty quickly. And somehow, you can be incredibly capable while still feeling like you have no idea what you're doing. Being away at college can give you enough distance to start seeing things differently. At the same time, there's that voice saying, "It wasn't that bad." "Other people had it worse." "Maybe I'm overreacting." You can understand why things were the way they were, care deeply about the people in your life, and still wonder whether some of it affected you more than you've let yourself believe. You may want something different without blaming anyone, being ungrateful, or feeling like you're betraying the people you love. In therapy, we don't have to decide whether it was "bad enough." We get curious about how things came to make sense—what you learned, what you needed, what may have been missing, and how it shows up now. We use different questions and approaches so you have more ways to understand yourself and more choices about what comes next. Therapy with me is meant to feel natural. You can start with "I don't know," jump around, use humor, or have no idea where to begin. You can understand where you came from, care about the people who got you here, and still want something different for yourself.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed or stuck in a stress cycle of worry, sadness, or loneliness, you are not alone! These emotions can be natural responses to life circumstances. Sometimes it seems as though you can’t find your way out of these feelings. As a licensed clinical social worker, I am ready to join with you and offer support. Together we can identify your personal challenges, build upon your unique strengths, and develop healthier life patterns. Therapy offers the opportunity to work toward becoming unstuck. I have over 15 years of clinical experience. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, chronic illness and LGBTQIA+. My approach draws from relational, family systems, psychodynamic, and cognitive behavioral therapies. I strive to provide a safe space where you can show up as your authentic self and feel heard, valued, and respected. I primarily meet via telehealth, with limited in-person availability. Give me a call to see if we are a good fit!

I work predominantly with students who are navigating the change of college, interpersonal dynamics, anxiety, depression, and personality disorders. I hope that through our work together, we can find ways to help you thrive and reach your goals.

You are at your threshold and something has to give. Maybe you have been struggling for years, or maybe you have new stress that feels unmanageable. You've tried changing your diet, journaling, talking it out, and nothing seems to change. It may seem as though things will never be different in your life or your relationships. But, after years of experience working with others just like you, here is the truth: lasting change is possible. My clients come to me because they want a shift and are seeking support as they turn onto a new path. Together, we will explore your thoughts and feelings, using a goal-oriented, holistic approach. Imagine what it would feel like to finally be able to let go of the constant worrying, suspicion, anger, and resentment. To feel like you can set boundaries and have the energy to participate in your life and experience joy again.

I am committed to helping you unravel old wounds as you strengthen and create a new direction in your life and relationships. My goal is to create a warm, non-judgmental and safe space for self-reflection, recovery, and personal growth.

I enjoy working with neurodivergent children, teens, adults, and families, including those with autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, and other disabilities. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or struggling with emotional regulation, relationships, school, or daily life demands. Together, we create a neuroaffirming space where clients can better understand themselves, build on their strengths, develop practical coping skills, and find approaches that honor the way their brains naturally work. As an art therapist and former elementary school art teacher, I offer a creative, person-centered approach tailored to each client's needs. I incorporate art therapy, sandtray therapy, play therapy, DBT, CBT, and solution-focused techniques to support emotional growth, self-understanding, and meaningful change. I believe healing happens when people are given space to show up as they are. You don't need artistic experience, perfect words, or everything figured out to begin therapy. If you're looking for a compassionate, collaborative space to explore challenges and strengths, I'd be honored to support you.
