I'm excited to get the opportunity to work with you! Here are a few things you may need to know before your first appointment. If you choose to do a virtual appointment, you must be residing in North Carolina, which is the state in which I am licensed to provide services. This is not a concern if you are choosing to come in person for appointments. If you are seeking play therapy for a child, this is provided in person only due to the nature of the way service is provided, making it a service that does not lend itself to virtual appointments. This is not a concern for traditional talk therapy with adults, which can be provided virtually. Read more

Starting Domestic violence therapy

What is domestic violence therapy?

It is a crucial component of the broader efforts to address and combat domestic violence, a pattern of abusive behaviors within intimate relationships that can encompass physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, or economic abuse.

In domestic violence therapy, therapists create a safe and supportive environment. Domestic violence therapy is often part of a broader support network that includes legal assistance, shelters, and community resources. Its aim is to break the cycle of abuse, promote safety, and foster healthier relationships.

Don’t Let Symptoms of Domestic Abuse Go Untreated – Therapists in Charlotte

Domestic abuse can have lifelong effects for those who don’t seek counseling. The initial feelings during or after abuse often include isolation, fear, anger, and embarrassment. Domestic abuse counseling can help you move past these feelings and through longer-term consequences as well.

You may not be aware of the extent of your symptoms

There’s no question that the actual abuse is painful and difficult but there can be symptoms you don’t recognize as part of the cycle of abuse. Victims often feel anxious and can even develop posttraumatic stress. Remember that these conditions can feel different than you expect. They could show themselves as chest pains, aches and pains, and sweating. They can mimic the symptoms you’d have if you were having a heart attack.

When to see your doctor and when to see a counselor

If you’re having chest pains or other pains that worry you, the right next move is to contact your physician. However, once they’ve ruled out a problem with your heart and have confirmed that you’re dealing with anxiety and / or panic disorders, then it’s time to speak to a counselor. There may be a medication that can help in the short-term but to move forward long-term, counseling is your best bet.

Other side effects of domestic abuse

There can be other side effects of domestic abuse including depression, suicidal thoughts, sexual issues, fear of emotional or physical intimacy, and a tendency to keep people in their life at arm’s distance. These symptoms can impact ever relationship in your life. They can make it hard to develop or maintain relationships with family, friends, and co-workers.

The good news is that there is help. Thriveworks Charlotte Counseling & Coaching is your next step. Let us walk you through this frightening process. While it may feel overwhelming to handle these issues on your own, when you have the help of an experienced counselor it will be less scary and you’ll have a clear path forward. You don’t have to live with the pain or shame anymore. Get help and learn how to finally move forward.

I have been seeing Terryn Maher for a couple of months now and she is awesome!! Very knowledgeable, attentive, thorough, thoughtful, caring, etc. I could go on for awhile. I’ve been in counseling with another therapist for about 14 years but I already feel like I’m getting so much more from working with Terryn. Thriveworks on a whole has been great to work with as well. They are easy to work with and schedule appointments with. I was nervous about working with a company over directly with just the therapist but it has actually worked out well. I highly recommend them!

I've worked with Mrs. Matson for close to a year now and I can say with certainty that she's a great counselor to go to for help with emotional regulation and understanding, grief management, and processing trauma in healthy and beneficial ways. Her use of meditation techniques to get to the root of my emotions and habits have helped me understand so much about myself and why I operate the way I do. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone just starting out looking for a good counselor, or anyone looking for a friendly empathetic professional who listens well and draws from a wealth of information to provide really quality services.

I have seen Dr. Daniel Stillwell for a year for individual and couples counseling and I trust him immensely. He is a skilled, authentic, and highly competent professional. I’ve also referred him to others and they described the same. Thriveworks staff have been very helpful with insurance and appointments.

Adriana Blanco is wonderful. I never felt any judgement from her during our sessions. She is compassionate, firm and extremely knowledgeable. I could not see myself opening up as much with another counselor, thank you for putting her in my path.
