About George
As a licensed therapist in North Carolina with over four decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life transitions and emotional challenges. My approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each client’s unique journey, with expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal growth.
I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space for exploring sensitive topics including sexuality, identity, life purpose, and interpersonal relationships. My practice focuses on helping clients develop self-love, improve communication, overcome social anxiety, and navigate significant life changes.
My therapeutic work spans a wide range of concerns—from workplace stress and midlife transitions to grief, chronic health challenges, and personal growth. I’m committed to creating an affirming environment that honors each individual’s experiences and supports their path toward healing and self-understanding.
I bring a liberal, inclusive perspective and welcome clients from diverse backgrounds, particularly those in the LGBTQ+ community and older adult populations. My goal is to empower you to develop resilience, find meaningful connections, and create positive change in your life.
