Feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and exhausted constantly? Isolated and alone because you don’t want to burden your friends or family with your problems? Or maybe you don’t know quite how to name why you feel this way or how to talk about it. Well, there is good news - therapy is the place to explore these challenging thoughts and feelings. I’ve worked in mental health since 2016, helping people of all ages, backgrounds, and challenges. I approach mental health challenges with a holistic mindset to help identify what we can change, inside of our control, and increase resilience. Depression, anxiety, ADHD, and trauma are a few examples of mental health struggles that impact how we live and experience the world. However, the opposite is also true! Because our lifestyles can influence our ability to tolerate stress and feel good about ourselves. My job as a therapist is to help you identify what is working, and what isn't working, and what we can do about it. I believe in us working as a team and supporting you in achieving your goals, so you can reconnect with your inner strength, resilience, and confidence to manage life's challenging ebbs and flows. Why choose me? Well, to help me feel less like a stranger, here is more detail about my background: My M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling is from Lenoir Rhyne University's Graduate Center of Asheville, NC in Dec. 2020. I hold a B.S. in Psychology from Longwood University in Farmville, VA. I'm a Qualified Mental Health Professional with 5.5 years of direct care experience with teens in residential treatment. My graduate internship was community & school-based outpatient therapy with Access Family Services. August 2021 to March 2024, I was an outpatient therapist, in-person and virtual, with the center for emotional health.

I earned my master’s degree in counseling from the University of North Carolina Charlotte. I began my career at Hospice then went to private practice. I believe everyone deserves happiness and peace. With mutual respect, compassion, nonjudgemental curiosity, and motivation, counseling can build resilience, develop coping strategies, and propel the client into a happier, healthier life. The counselor/client relationship should be a collaborative effort. I am certified in women's mental health (including eating disorders), grief and loss and trauma I use evidence-based, trauma-informed modalities including CBT, DBT, CPT, EMDR, MI, Existentialism, Mindfulness, and other person centered modalities.

I will help you take meaningful steps toward finding your purpose, exposing your power and resilience and healing.

My calling is to help heal the minds and souls of people so they can manifest their greater and higher selves. Whether it was through the books I've written, my former vegan catering company, practicing as a doula or navigating spaces as a licensed clinical social worker, I've always understood the assignment of helping folks recognize they have the power within themselves to heal.

I’m a warm, down-to-earth therapist who believes therapy doesn’t have to feel stiff or overly clinical. My style is informal, conversational, and collaborative, creating a space where you can show up as yourself without worrying about saying the “right” thing. I have no expectations for you to present yourself in a certain way, change anything about yourself, or hide anything. Each thing that you share will only help our work together, and guide me to the best understanding of you and your needs, so that we can navigate your challenges as a team, and take all factors into consideration. My goal for my sessions is to create an environment where the people that I meet with understand that they will never be met with judgement, unreasonable expectations, or negativity. Together, we can create a map of what you’re going through, identify and build on your strengths, and find practical ways to grow toward the life you want.

*For those looking, I Do Not Provide Medication Management. I help Christian women unravel the confusion of emotionally and spiritually abusive marriages-whether you're still unsure, just beginning to question, or already walking away. There's space here for your story, your faith, and your healing. You don’t need another professional voice telling you how to heal. You need someone who knows—someone who has walked through the fire, crawled through the ashes, and fought to reclaim her own life. That’s why I’m here. I don’t offer band-aid solutions or quick fixes. I offer truth, courage, and a way forward. I will sit with you in the mess, wade through the lies that have kept you stuck, and help you rebuild what was stolen. If you’re exhausted from carrying the weight of expectations, fear, and silent suffering—I see you. And I’m not afraid to go with you where others have refused to go. You’re not just getting counseling—you’re getting a lifeline. A mirror to see yourself clearly again. A way out when everything in you says you’re stuck forever. Because you’ve been told you have to stay. That this is your burden to bear. That suffering in silence is somehow holy. But it’s not. And I know that agony—the cherished tears that come from realizing everything you fought for is crushing you instead of saving you. The grief of knowing you lost yourself somewhere along the way. But hear me: You are not too far gone. This space? It was made for you. A place where the raw, the sacred, the unspoken are all welcome. Where you can breathe again. Where you can break apart and break free. You don’t have to stay in the darkness. You were meant for so much more. If you’re ready to dig yourself out, let’s begin.

Let’s not sugar coat it! Starting therapy can feel like a HUGE, exciting and terrifying step forward. Let’s not focus on the mountain, let’s focus on what’s right in front of you! You don't have to have it all together, nor do you have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I’m Perleen Daroowalla and I aim to create a safe space where we can be straightforward and honest with each other while working through life’s challenges. I model the same honesty, accountability, and responsibility that I encourage in my clients. Therapy begins with where you are now, factors in where you have been, and builds a plan for where you want to go. You are the expert on your life! The therapeutic relationship is a collaborative process. Together, we will create an individualized plan based off where you want your life to be in a month, 6 months, and/or a year from now. I offer creative and realistic strategies to assist you in tackling life’s challenges. You'll leave sessions with skills you can actively use to accomplish your goals.

Hi there — I’m Madison (Gabriel) Long, LCMHC, NCC, a licensed therapist based in North Carolina and South Carolina, and I’m passionate about helping people move from feeling stuck into genuinely living. My training includes trauma-focused CBT (TF-CBT), child-centered play therapy (CCPT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy (EMDR), and I’m currently pursuing certification in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C). Whether you’re navigating the unique emotional terrain of pregnancy or postpartum, healing from past trauma, or managing the ever-changing demands of parenting and family life, I’m here with you — through the ups, downs, and in-between. I offer virtual therapy so you can meet with me from wherever you are in NC, right when it works for you. I do this work because I believe growth happens when we feel safe enough to face what we’ve been avoiding, and strong enough to embrace the next step. Not only have I been where many of you are, I’ve also had the privilege to see clients emerge from seasons of pain, parenting chaos, trauma’s shadow, and come into more grounded, more resilient selves — and it is an honor to be part of that process. If you’re ready to start feeling grounded, nourished, and confident again — I’d be honored to walk beside you.

I’m often asked, “What made you want to become a therapist?” The answer is simple: I genuinely enjoy helping others. I understand that life can be difficult because I’ve faced my own challenges along the way. My journey hasn’t always been easy, and therapy was an important tool that helped me find support, work through difficult experiences, and continue moving forward. I believe therapy is a journey, and you shouldn’t have to walk that journey alone. My role is to walk alongside you, offering support, encouragement, and a safe space where you can be yourself, explore your thoughts and emotions, and work toward becoming the person you want to be. I’m passionate about helping children, teens, and adults navigate life’s challenges. I strive to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and supported. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, life changes, relationships, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, I believe that change is possible and that everyone has the ability to grow. I earned my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of the Cumberlands and have worked in the mental health and child welfare fields for more than 30 years. My years of experience have given me the opportunity to work with people from many different backgrounds and through many different challenges. Most importantly, those experiences have taught me the importance of meeting each person where they are and recognizing that everyone’s journey is unique. When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me enjoying the outdoors, getting lost in a good book, or spending time with my energetic and adorable miniature schnauzer, Felix.

Trauma has haunted you for years. It’s left you with nightmares and flashbacks. It’s caused you to distrust others and push them away. It’s made you feel broken and hopeless. You’ve tried everything you can think of to shed the weight of the past. You’ve read the books, tried the life hacks… You may have even talked to a therapist. But now, you’re out of options. Nothing has helped you transition from being a survivor to someone who’s truly alive. And you’re all talked out. No matter how many times you tell your story, nothing changes. The search for relief is exhausting. This might be your last shot at getting help.

Hi, I'm Cindy. I'm a trauma-informed therapist and EMDR specialist who believes healing is possible, no matter how stuck you may feel. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, grief, and divorce, providing a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. My approach is warm, genuine, and direct. I don't believe therapy should feel like repeating the same story every week without making progress. Together, we'll identify the patterns that are keeping you stuck, process past experiences that continue to impact your present, and develop practical tools that help you create meaningful, lasting change. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, grieving a loss, struggling in your relationships, or navigating a major life transition, I'll meet you where you are. My goal is to help you gain clarity, build resilience, and move forward with greater confidence, self-awareness, and purpose.

My approach is integrative, trauma-informed, and tailored to each individual from ages 6 through 50.. I see neurodivergent clients, LGBTQIA+ challenges, anxiety, depression, trauma, depression with a holistic approach to healing with psychoeducation on brain-body connection and tools to support the nervous system. As a neurodivergent individual, I am naturally attuned to the challenges and strengths of neurodivergent clients … which leads to greater patience, validation and empathy for my clients. I draw from science-based therapies to support healing on both emotional and nervous system levels. This may include trauma-focused work, nervous system regulation skills, mindfulness, somatic (body-based) practices, cognitive and behavioral strategies, and practical tools to support everyday life. Together, we will work at a pace that feels safe and supportive for you. Therapy may focus on processing experiences, building emotional regulation skills, increasing mind-body awareness, strengthening boundaries, and creating healthier patterns that extend beyond the therapy room.

My name is Amanda Chilleme, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina, as well as a Master’s Certified Addiction Professional. For over 11 years, I have supported individuals in identifying what truly matters to them, navigating obstacles, and building a foundation for a more fulfilling future. My primary specialty is working with men and women struggling with substance use disorders as well as process and behavioral addictions, helping them find a pathway to a life that feels less burdened and more aligned. I also have extensive experience treating anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorders, grief and bereavement, trauma, attachment concerns, and personality disorders. As a clinician, I take a human-focused approach. I am not here to tell you what you need to work on—you already know the what. My role is to help you understand the why, and ultimately the how: how to shift it, heal it, overcome it, or, when appropriate, let it go altogether. Your first session is best described as a two-way interview. As I listen to your story and your narrative begins to take shape, we collaboratively determine two things: Whether I am the right therapist for you, and Whether this therapeutic relationship is the right fit for both of us. If we decide to move forward together, identifying your goals becomes your first assignment. This process allows me to better understand how you think, how you interpret challenges, and how barriers such as stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship dynamics show up for you. From there, we focus on one goal at a time. I see myself as your coach, teammate, and cheerleader! Whether you are just beginning therapy or have been on this journey for some time, I invite you to plant that seed—and see just how beautifully you grow.

​ Do you struggle with feeling bad about yourself, developing and /or maintaining healthy relationships with others? Do you feel down, depressed, feeling you let yourself or others down? Do you experience feelings of anxiety, stress, or trauma? Are these concerns impacting you at home, work, or other places? Seeking therapy can be scary, however, you have made the right decision. I believe individuals are the "experts on themselves" and possess the ability to make the desired positive change in their lives. In the session, we will utilize a Person Center Approach consisting of meeting the individual were they are, actively listening, providing support, encouragement, and validation, as well as utilizing Evidence -Based Treatment Modalities ( such Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness, Person Centered Approach, and Psychoeducation) Supportive Therapy, Stress Management, and Anger Management. Together, we will work collaboratively to treat the whole person and empower the person to find their way forward.

I graduated with my undergraduates in Psychology and Spanish, followed by my Master's of Science in Social Work, and ended with my Doctorate of Clinical Leadership in Social Work. I help people deal with day to day life challenges brought on by mental health concerns in our lives, sometimes due to trauma or significant events in our lives.

I help my clients process and heal from trauma using various methods to meet each person where they are at. Providing therapy is a privilege for me. I'd love to see if I may be of service to you and your needs right where you are currently in you own life journey. Please schedule a session if you're interested in working together.

For most of my adult life, I have had the privilege of helping individuals and families navigate challenges, make meaningful changes, and move forward in their lives. Along the way, life has happened to me, too. I have experienced loss, grief, life transitions, and family conflict, and I understand that sometimes even the strongest among us need support finding our way through difficult seasons. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I bring life experiences, professional training, and a genuine understanding of how complex life can be. I work with adults of all ages who are ready for something to change but may not be quite sure where to begin. My approach is down-to-earth, curious, compassionate, and focused on making our time together meaningful or forward focused.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
