Our approach:

Compassionate. Healing-Centered. Collaborative.

At Create the pause, we collaborate with you to create a safe space where you can get curious about you. Our practice is relationally oriented, somatically- integrated and focused on increasing authenticity through embodiment. Trauma often leads to fragmentation & disconnection and we believe healing arises through re-connection with a safe, attuned other. We incorporate mind, body, and soul while navigating identity, community, culture, and the systems around us.

In-person and remote therapy options:

Our office is located in the Plaza-Midwood area of Charlotte. We also offer telehealth appointments to best accommodate your needs.

Accessibility notes: There are stairs or a ramp you can use to enter the building. The office is on the first floor and has gender-neutral restrooms.
