Hi! My name is Jordan Nivens, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina. It can be tough when facing challenges and struggles. Taking the opportunity to seek out help is not a sign of weakness; but a demonstration of strength. I provide a nonjudgmental, understanding, and compassionate atmosphere to assist you in learning tools to cope with life’s problems, while empowering you with the skills and strength to bring about the changes you desire in life. I work with clients with various challenges including anxiety, life transition, women's issues and family/relationship concerns.
I believe emotional honesty is at the heart of any healthy relationship and to model that here is my truth, I did not set out to become a trauma or addiction therapist. In my early years, I wanted to be a cop, actress, or a marine biologist. However, throughout my childhood, I was always drawn to go deep in my relationships. Often being told as a child, I was too deep, or too sensitive. My first therapist in college helped me reframe that narrative, “you experience life deeply”, she said. Born and raised in Charlotte, NC I made my way to the mountains of Western NC just as soon as I could leave home. My first stop was in Boone, NC where I studied Psychology at Appalachian State University and found its teachings inspiring, useful, and fascinating. As for landing in Asheville, that was destiny. I was only intending to be here for one summer and that was 15 years ago. Destined to create a life better than what I had known, I set out to become the person for others that I needed during many of my life struggles, learning to love and embrace all parts of myself and helping others to do the same. I am a person who is eternally optimistic, hopeful, and dedicated to making this world better than I found it. Recovery happens and it is found in community, connection, and through vulnerability, safety, and compassion.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who helps individuals heal, grow, and reconnect with themselves. My approach combines Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to address the roots of distress and promote lasting change. I provide culturally sensitive, experiential therapy that honors your identity, values, and lived experiences. Whether we are reprocessing painful memories, exploring parts of yourself, or engaging in present-moment experiences, I create a compassionate and collaborative space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to move forward.
Life's pressures can leave you feeling like you're constantly running on a treadmill—anxious, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the person you want to be. If you're a young adult trying to navigate career, relationships, and your own sense of self, it’s easy to feel like you're falling short, even when you're doing your best.
My name is Devin, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My own story as a mixed-race, genderqueer femme of Mexican and Laos ancestry isn't just a biography line—it's the lens through which I understand the world. It’s taught me how our identities, families, and communities shape our lives, often in complicated ways. I offer virtual therapy to young adults in California who are ready to explore these layers and find a more grounded, resilient path forward.
Would you like to create space for work/ life balance? Would it be helpful to learn more about the connection between your behaviors, feelings, and thoughts? Are you ready to talk about coping strategies- both those that work and learn new ones?
I work collaboratively with individuals and families to manage stressors, feelings of stress and anxiety, and cope with addictions. I help clients develop coping strategies that may challenge past thoughts and behaviors but lead toward the accomplishment of goals. Sometimes, it is simply reminding ourselves of what worked before and getting back on track and other times, it is about learning something never practiced before.

Hi, I’m Vanecia Storms, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina. I help adults get real about what they’re feeling, reconnect with their strengths, and take powerful steps forward—without the pressure to be perfect.
Therapy with me is a space where you can exhale, be heard, and maybe even laugh a little. Whether you're adjusting to a life change, overwhelmed by expectations, or struggling with past patterns, I’ll meet you where you are—with compassion, humor, and proven strategies for change.
I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience, providing compassionate, evidence-based care in both inpatient and outpatient settings.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals facing a wide range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions.
My approach is collaborative and client centered, focused on building a safe supportive space where individuals feel heard and empowered to create meaningful change. I draw from a variety of treatment, modalities, including cognitive, behavioral therapy, acceptance, and commitment, therapy, g0nny, t, processing therapy, and mindfulness based therapy and supportive interventions.

My name is Angela Wilburn, I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist. I have been a clinician for approximately 10 years; I chose this profession so I can help people navigate their way through those difficult periods in their life when they believe no one sees them or no one cares. I want my clients to know they have a voice
Hi, My name is Kristel. I am an LCSW who provides talk therapy via Telehealth. I am a multifaceted individual with a deep well of life experiences that inform my perspective. As a former military brat and spouse (married 18 years), working mother, single mother, trauma survivor, I've intimately understood the complexities of life's transitions. My journey has taken me from being a stay-at-home mom to transitioning back into the workforce, granting me a unique appreciation for both roles.
I'm a devoted mother of two children, and my path has been marked by significant challenges, including the struggle with infertility and profound grief. I proudly identify as a feminist and supporter of the LGBTQ+ community. These aspects of my identity deeply influence my approach to life and work.
With a background in working with families, individuals, and children, I bring a wealth of experience. My personal journey has shaped my empathetic, compassionate, and inclusive perspective, which I offer as a source of support and understanding to those I work with.
Hello! I’m a therapist who helps people navigate the pressures, transitions, and emotional challenges that show up across different seasons of life. Whether you’re feeling weighed down by anxiety or depression, carrying the effects of past experiences, or simply feeling overwhelmed by daily stress, I offer a thoughtful, structured, and supportive approach to help you regain clarity and momentum.
My clinical background includes training in fast-paced, high-expectation environments where providing effective, evidence-based care was essential. I completed my graduate training with a strong academic foundation and a rigorous clinical internship focused on delivering high-quality mental health treatment. In my work, I draw from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness-based skills to help clients better understand their patterns, build practical coping tools, and move toward meaningful change.
All of my experience as a clinician was gained while serving on active duty in the U.S. Army, including work as a Behavioral Health Officer in a high-stress operational setting. While this gave me a deep understanding of performance pressure, burnout, and work-life balance, my approach is not limited to military-specific concerns. The skills I developed translate naturally to working with civilians navigating demanding careers, relationship challenges, and the emotional toll of modern life. Above all, I strive to create a space that feels approachable, collaborative, and grounded—where you can feel comfortable being yourself while doing meaningful work.
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist who is passionate about helping individuals and families experience meaningful, lasting growth. I provide a warm, supportive environment where clients feel heard, respected, and understood. My approach is compassionate yet direct, blending faith-based principles with evidence-based practices such as CBT and Solution-Focused Therapy.
Clients often describe me as empathetic, grounded, trustworthy, and easy to talk to. I value authenticity, integrity, and creating a space where healing feels both safe and empowering.
For more than 25 years, I’ve helped adults navigate transitional life challenges—whether related to depression, anxiety, relationship stressors, or addictive and self- sabotaging behaviors. I'm solution‐focused, goal‐oriented, compassionate, and client‐centered. I work collaboratively to identify practical steps forward, so we don’t stay stuck in the problem itself. Together, we’ll clarify what’s getting in the way and build tools that help you feel more grounded, capable and aligned with your values.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, I will help you create meaningful, lasting change.

If you’re ready for grounded support and practical strategies to move forward, you’re in the right place.

Welcome to HeartSpace Counseling. My name is Catharine Long, and I have been blessed to work with folks from all walks of life as a board certified licensed clinical social worker for over 30 years. I gear my practice towards after hours support with appointments available Tu-Th in the evenings and on Saturdays. I am currently accepting new clients for virtual sessions and hope to hear from you.
Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with a Master's Degree in Social Work and over 20 years of experience in various clinical and non-clinical settings, including hospitals, government agencies, and private practices. My approach emphasizes collaborative partnerships with motivated clients, empowering them to use therapeutic skills and techniques to achieve their goals and move forward.
I am Dr. Holly Thompson and I am a licensed counselor in the state of South Carolina and North Carolina. I have been in private practice for 5 years and have experience working with clients in various environments. I work to provide a safe space for all individuals looking for healing, whatever that healing looks like and often looks different for many people. I believe that everyone has value and their journey has purpose; I am here to assist in the treatment process through healthy communication, perspective, awareness.
There are times when we feel stuck in patterns we can’t seem to break or disconnected from who we really are under the weight of expectations from family, relationships, and work. I use cultural awareness and acceptance to support high achieving professionals from diverse cultural and racial backgrounds as they navigate expectations, identity, and relationships at work and in their personal lives. It can be life changing to give yourself permission not to fit neatly into predefined boxes.
I’m a holistic therapist who understands that your wellness isn’t just about what’s happening in your life. It’s shaped by your relationships, the systems you navigate, and the identity you carry. I’ve worked with couples seeking deeper connection, individuals managing chronic stress or illness, and families navigating major transitions. I’m also a 200-hour certified yoga instructor, and I integrate mindfulness, breathwork, and body awareness into our work.
This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about supporting your wellness as a whole person. You are more than your symptoms and patterns of behavior.
Hey, I'm Tina! I've been a licensed therapist for 15 years and I have done tons of work with adolescents and adults. I have supported clients with depression, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, self-esteem, and grief. There is no cookie-cutter approach to therapy, and I take my job of active listening and offering supportive guidance very seriously. I look forward to supporting you on your journey!
I have several years of experience treating individuals, families, and adolescents using a holistic, empathic, and trauma-informed approach. Watching friends and family struggle with mental health and substance abuse issues fueled my passion for helping those who struggle with these difficulties from a place of understanding, patience, and empathy. I received a BA in psychology first, which led to obtaining a substance abuse certificate. I gained experience working with families and individuals and, after some time, I was ready to further my education and obtained a Master of Social Work. This helped me expand my clinical skills and learn more targeted therapy modalities, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT, psychoanalytical care, and art therapy. I found these approaches are a great synthesis of neuroscience, trauma, and creativity.
I am pleased to hold space for individuals that is warm, relaxing, neutral and intentional. My goal is for clients to explore who they are, process as they need to, and become empowered to change as they see fit. With more than 20 years of Social Work Practice experience, and 5 years of experience providing therapeutic intervention, I do possess some specific treatment areas. They include, counseling individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease, counseling survivors of intimate partner violence and those individuals having difficulty dealing with life transitions. Other treatment areas include Depression, Anxiety, Grief, and stress management.
I am so glad you're here. I am a therapist who specializes in supporting young adults and adults navigating anxiety, depression and major life transitions. I often work with individuals who are balancing work, relationships, or new responsibilities and may feel overwhelmed or unsure how to move forward. I provide a supportive space where we can work together to build coping skills, increase confidence and help you feel more like yourself again.
Looking through these many profiles can be difficult and draining. Thanks for being here. If you are struggling with sleep and unable to control your worries, or feeling anxious and as if your stress never eases up, I hope we connect. Overthinking tomorrow and replaying yesterday can be exhausting for any of us and can honestly feel like where we live in our minds. Anxiety steals valuable time from us and can cause incredible distress. Depression also robs us of time, and if you live with grief and loss, the pain may feel overwhelming and never ending. I serve individuals in Wisconsin, North Carolina, and Virginia and have many years of experience working with clients suffering with anxiety, many of whom have endured trauma, loss, and live with grief. I enjoy assisting all adults and have worked with many wonderful individuals in addressing life challenges, changes, and transitions. I know it can be especially difficult and uncomfortable to reach out and ask for help when you are already overwhelmed with a situation. I will always strive to provide a safe space for you to talk about whatever concerns are important to you. Some concerns are very private. I respect this and offer a supportive environment which is always free from judgement. I appreciate your time and hope you find who you need in these profiles.

Hi, I'm Lindsay. I have been working as a therapist for over 10 years, but when I take my therapist hat off, I am a daughter, a sister, a friend, an aunt, and a momma to fur babies. Needless to say, I am a major animal lover. I am also a proud Harry Potter adult. I love reading, last year I read 122 books, and my favorite genres are mystery/suspense and fantasy. I also love running, I’ve run five half marathons and would love to run a full marathon one day. My favorite thing in the world is taking my puppies, Nola and Frank, on puppy runs with me (she’s 9, he's 1). If I’m not working, reading, running, or playing with dogs, you will find me fully invested in true crime.
My name is Keesha, and I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) with over four years of experience in the field.

Do you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you? Whether you're a teen navigating the complexities of growing up or an adult facing life transitions, unresolved trauma can quietly shape how you see yourself, relate to others, and experience the world. Therapy can provide a safe and supportive space to begin untangling the past and reclaiming your present. Everyone deserves to feel seen, supported, and empowered to heal. If you're ready to take that first step, I’m here to walk alongside you.

Hi, I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW/LISW-CP) based in North and South Carolina. I earned my Master’s from Simmons University and have been practicing for the past 8 years. Reaching out for support takes a lot of courage and curiosity—and I want to acknowledge that just by being here, you’re already taking an important step.
Life has a way of creating all kinds of transitions. Some can feel like waves of excitement and full of growth and opportunity, while others feel overwhelming, unclear, scary, or just plain hard. I work with people navigating many types of life changes, including (and not limited to): grief and loss, caregiving burnout, medical diagnoses, changes in independence, identity exploration, and retirement.
And with those changes often come things like anxiety, depression, loneliness, or feeling disconnected from yourself. My approach is holistic, somatic informed, and person-centered. That means we’ll focus on your strengths, your body and mind, your story, and what matters most to you as we work together to bring more balance, purpose, and joy into your life.
You don’t have to go through it alone. I’m here to support you.

Great day! My name is Shironda Monique Bryant. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina. I have been providing counseling in some form or fashion since 2005 but have been licensed and practicing in the state of North Carolina since 2012 (I began my career in counseling in New Jersey). I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, anger issues, and ADHD. I have worked in array of environments from prisons to the court systems, schools, hospitals and an army base.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach is existential, which in itself pulls from several other treatment modalities. I am confident that I will be able to tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

Having been through a lot in my teenage years into adulthood, where I learned self-confidence, I have found that if I had someone to help me work through issues of stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and many other life factors I would have been successful sooner.
I have experience in diverse cultures where I have found I learn just as much from the people around me as they learn from me. Having an open mind and listening to my clients helps me to relate and understand them and develop a treatment plan or plan of action with them that makes them feel comfortable.
I have an extensive history helping individuals understand their career path, educational needs, and learning life skills. I have a passion for mental health because of the family history with depression, schizophrenia, anxiety, and substance abuse, and it drives me to want to help others.
I believe it is important to empower individuals, couples, and families towards a sense of normalcy and autonomy, and developing skills to meet the goals they have for their lives. Taking a holistic approach to counseling I take into consideration the whole person and stive to build a good working relationship with each client to better understand them, helping them feel at ease at a time that may feel stressful and awkward, and helping them navigate life's challenges.
In my free time I like to go to the beach, take a walk in nature, and enjoy spending time with my children and 2 dogs. I also enjoy learning, reading, and going to amusement parks when time allows.

Hi, I’m Michelle. If you’re feeling stuck in anxiety, constantly worrying, or struggling with feeling “not good enough,” you’re not alone, and there’s nothing wrong with you. Many of the people I work with carry the weight of past experiences, family wounds, or trauma that still show up in their daily lives in ways they don’t always understand.
In our work together, I offer a safe, compassionate space where you can slow down, feel supported, and begin to heal. I use approaches like EMDR and CBT to help you process painful experiences, calm anxious thoughts, and build a stronger sense of self-worth. For those who would like, I also integrate faith into counseling in a way that feels natural and supportive.
I work mostly with adults who are ready for change but may not know where to start. My goal is to help you feel more at peace, more confident, and more connected, not just in sessions, but in everyday life too.
Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

Through sessions together, I will collaborate with you to assist you in recognizing your individual strengths and strive to empower you with the self-awareness and self-confidence to pursue your dreams. i also practice Internal Family Systems, a means of healing PTSD without having to revisit the event. this is evidence based and rooted in both Attachment Theory and Family Systems Therapy.
I take a person-centered, creative, non-judgmental approach to creating a safe space for counseling sessions, allowing you to unburden yourself and share your goals, while helping you to see how your uniquely shaded lenses of experience have color your perceptions.
Hi there, I'm Tonya Bunch.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 11 years experience serving the community.
I help individuals with anxiety, depression, and PTSD to manage burnout, learn emotion regulation, and balance their everyday lives. Together we will work to identify what is working and what is not working for you to learn healthy coping skills. We will use a person-centered approach to balance your mind, body, spirit and environment. I love using strength-based, grounding techniques, mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to help you learn that you have the coping skills to manage your struggles.
Whether you are seeking help for anxiety, depression, trauma or relationship issues, I am here to help. Seeking therapy is scary and taking the first step is the hardest. I am here to support you nonjudgmentally, no matter the issue. You are making the right choice. I give you the space and time to build a therapeutic relationship to reach your goals. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I will meet you with compassion and use evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits that have been holding you back. Let's work together!
Hello, welcome to the beginning of this new therapy journey. Whether it's your first time or you've been here before - I am happy to support you in whatever you need! I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs, therapy is not one-size fits all! Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
I am licensed in North Carolina with seven years of professional work experience. I graduated from Appalachian State University with my Bachelors and Masters of Social Work, and have held a clinical license (LCSW) since 2019.
I have experience in helping clients with relationship issues, family conflicts, parenting issues, life changes, anxiety, depression, motivation, self-esteem, career difficulties, school issues, financial struggles, and more. I work with any and all age groups, especially with teens and young adults.
Some of my more focused expertise are life changes regarding personal relationships, career changes and loss as well as relationship issues including trust, infidelity, STDs, jealousy, commitment issues, attachment issues, codependency, and more. I have worked in-home with families with kids on juvenile probation, and am trained in Functional Family Therapy - which looks closely at the functions of the family and each member's role and behaviors and how to find solutions to the presenting problems.
My therapy style is very solution-focused and relatively fast paced. I typically meet with clients who need brief therapy for life changes and adjustment, or support with parenting, relationships, etc. but am able to do more long-term if desired!
