  • You are successful on the outside, yet still feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck.

  • You find yourself alternating between pushing through and shutting down.

  • Part of you knows you're safe now, yet your body still responds as if you're not.

Survival mode is the nervous system's attempt to protect you from experiences it has learned may be unsafe. Trauma Therapy can help create the safety needed for your system to move beyond survival and into growth.

Trauma informed therapy in Greenville, NC. Helping you feel safe in your body, grounded in your life, and truely alive.

Where Growth Begins

If you’ve been living in survival mode, begin your move towards a life that feels safe in your body, grounded in reality, and truly alive. This is a space where your story is honored and your boundaries are respected. You don’t have to hold it all together here. You can settle, be seen, and begin the work.

The work is grounded in safety: in your body, in the room, and in the therapeutic relationship. Together, we create space to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with what’s happening inside you. There’s no need to rush. We move at the pace your nervous system can handle.

When your system feels safe and supported, growth begins to happen naturally.

How the Work Unfolds

Once a sense of safety is established, we begin to gently explore what’s been held beneath the surface.

We slow things down, paying attention not just to what’s being said, but to what’s being felt. At times, we stay with a sensation, memory, or pattern long enough for something new to emerge.

We work with both the mind and the body to help you:

• Make sense of patterns that keep you stuck • Process what was never fully integrated • Give space to parts of you that learned to stay hidden.

This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about helping you reconnect with parts of yourself that have been carrying too much for too long.

When Things Start to Shift

The work unfolds at different paces. For some, changes come quickly. For others, it takes time.

At some point, you begin to notice it... not in a session, but in your life.

In moments that used to feel overwhelming … something is different.

You pause instead of spiraling.
You speak instead of shutting down.
You move through something that used to stop you.

You don’t have to think about it as much.
You don’t have to fight yourself as hard.

Life begins to feel less like something you are managing…and more like something you are actually living.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who do you work with?

I work with adults experiencing the effects of trauma, anxiety, burnout, and difficult relationship patterns. Many appear successful on the outside but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck internally. You don’t need a PTSD diagnosis or a single defining traumatic event to explore whether this work fits your needs.

Can therapy help if I’ve tried it before?

Previous therapy may have helped you understand your patterns while leaving some reactions or feelings unchanged. We can explore what helped, what felt missing, and whether a different approach could support you. Understanding a pattern and being able to respond differently can require different kinds of work.

What types of therapy do you offer?

I have Trauma Focused and Attachment-Based approach while using a range of techniques such as: Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Brainspotting, Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Breathwork, and Expressive Arts. We choose approaches together based on your needs, readiness, and goals, with attention to both your emotional experience and your body’s responses.

What happens during the first session?

The first appointment is an opportunity to discuss what brings you to therapy, what you hope will change, and relevant parts of your history. We’ll explore your current needs and begin developing a plan together. You can ask questions, and you don’t have to share every detail of difficult experiences immediately.

Do you offer in-person and online therapy?

Yes. Art of Growth Counseling offers in-person therapy at 3107 Evans St. Ste. H, Greenville, North Carolina 27834. We offer virtual therapy for clients located in North Carolina and Virginia.

Do you offer a free consultation, and how do I get started?

Yes. I offer a free 15-minute consultation to discuss what you’re looking for, answer questions, and explore whether we’re a good fit. Select “Schedule a Free Consultation” or “New Clients” on the website to get started. You can also call the office number: (252) 947-1924, leave a voicemail message, and I will return your call.
