Hello. My name is Monica, and I am a licensed therapist in North Carolina (NC). I am a native of New York City, but I have lived in NC for many years. I was once a military spouse, which has helped me grasp an understanding of military life and transitions that only living that life can provide. I have been told that I am easy to talk to and people find comfort in sharing their story with me. My method of counseling is supportive, affirming and client-centered. I am passionate about helping others achieve their goals. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey.

Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and/or others? Do you feel like your life could be more fulfilled? Life entails wins, successes, accomplishments, ups and downs, transitions, unexpected events, detours, stumbling blocks, and so much more. My passion is boosting your self-efficacy, meanwhile, helping you to identify and implement new perspectives and practices to transform and start living a better life. It might mean learning to set boundaries, working through a loss, coping with life transition(s), altering your thinking process, and changing behavior(s) and patterns that are keeping you stuck. Regardless of what it is, my goal is to normalize prioritizing your self-care, improve your coping capacity, build resilience, and increase your self-awareness.

My name is Edward Driver and I a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and I believe my role as a therapist is to give a voice to those who are unable to speak for themselves. Growing up in the projects of Chicago, I was surrounded by substance abuse, trauma, depression, and anxiety linked to the stresses of poverty. I grew up believing that happiness lies in accumulating wealth and achievements. However, after attaining these, I realized my true satisfaction came from helping others navigate their struggles, leading to a profound transformation in my life. Thus, I pursued a Master’s in Social Work at Barry University, where I discovered my passion for working with clients, who like myself were from historically, under-served minority communities, and were disproportionately affected by mental health disparities. As an African-American man with four sisters and three daughters, I've personally encountered and witnessed the unique challenges faced by women of color. My true passion is for helping individuals with histories of trauma, and how this trauma manifests in relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, and severe mental illness.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counsellor (LCMHC) currently serving both North and South Carolina. I have utilized my Masters of Counseling in practice for 8 years. I've spent over 12 years as a Protective Services Social Worker and in that time I had the privilege to serve many people in many walks of life. That experience has given me a unique talent for connecting with people. I enjoy assisting older and young adults struggling with life, relationship and career stress, and others just finding it difficult to become the best versions of themselves.

Hi there! I'm so glad that you have taken the step to begin your journey to becoming the best version of yourself... A little about me, I have a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Kean University in Union, NJ. I also have a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration from The University of Texas at Arlington. I have experience working with clients in a variety of settings and diverse backgrounds. I have worked within hospitals, residential treatment facilities, community mental health centers, non-profit organizations, schools, major health insurance companies, and private practice. The past few years have been difficult for so many of us... It seems like any issues we had before the pandemic were put on hold and we were then faced with a brand new set of overwhelming issues to cope with! Now that it seems we are beginning to return to some sense of normalcy, there's finally time to focus on personal growth and healing.
