About

Hi, I’m Deirdre, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina, and I’m available to share time and (virtual) space with you as you work toward change, healing, and GROWth! Have you been having a hard time trying to manage your thoughts and feelings alone? Are you frustrated with trying to be heard or understood by people around you who just don’t seem to get it, or are you frustrated with yourself for not doing what is in your best interests? Are you overwhelmed, not taking the best care of yourself that you could be, or longing to feel better? If any of this feels familiar, I want to celebrate you for taking steps to get connected to a helping professional to aid you in working to change that! I have over a decade of experience supporting and assisting women, men, and young adults in their work to make positive changes to their health and lives, via diagnostic assessments, pre-surgical psychological evaluations, talk therapy, and medical case management services. I have successfully assisted clients living with anxiety, depression, ADHD, chronic health conditions (HIV, Diabetes, chronic pain, etc.), relationship issues, sexual health concerns, financial difficulties, parenting challenges, codependency, disordered eating, and intimate partner violence to better understand and manage their mental health symptoms and improve their overall functioning. I believe that engaging in therapy is one of the best things a person can do to safely carve out defined time to regularly focus on learning how to navigate internal and external stressors and challenges better, as well as how to attend to, care for, and love the self. I look forward to supporting and empowering you as we start where you are and work together to find ways to improve your quality of life and create more sustainable inner peace going forward.
