My practice over the past 30 years as an LCMHC has allowed me to help people of diverse backgrounds overcome a variety of life's challenges. I help people by meeting with them, learning about their problems and discovering ways for them to feel more at ease. The most common issues that I help people with involve their moods (for example sadness, worrying, anger or stress) and with their relationships. All types of people come to see me; people just like you who have hit a bump in the road and want to help themselves feel better again. I've focused on adults and couples struggling with anxiety, depression, controlling anger, family conflict, substance abuse, and behavioral issues. If you're looking for someone to help, I'd welcome your call!

Change can be scary, but it doesn't have to be. We all face situations throughout life that can make us feel overwhelmed and in need of support, encouragement, strategic planning or goal setting. You are not alone. I provide a safe, warm and friendly environment for growth and healing. You may need support in family life transitions, a parent-child relationship, peers groups, marriage, divorce, social issues, academic challenges or behavioral issues. While we are working together, I take a collaborative approach to help you to achieve your goals and overcome the challenges you're facing in life. I am here to support and empower you on your personal journey. Recognizing when issues in life have become too much to handle alone and seeking assistance is a great first step on your healing journey. It takes a lot of courage to reach out to someone, so I applaud you on taking that first huge step.

Hi, I’m Ashley. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and live in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina with my dog. My passion is supporting people in all stages of life work towards finding purpose and becoming the best versions of themselves. Maybe you can relate to some of my story. I became a therapist in 2019 to give back some of the hope that was given to me as I embarked on my own mental health journey. I remember thinking to myself, “Who am I?”, and “Am I good enough?”. I remember, and still know how that style of thinking can be overpowering, and become what I have learned to call “sticky thoughts”. These thoughts can lead to anxiety, depression, irritability, and can be the root cause of unhelpful coping skills and habits. Once we get into that negative cycle, it can feel impossible to get out. This occurred for many years, and consumed my entire being until I had support from family, therapists, sports coaches, and friends, and reached out for help. Let me tell you from experience, recovery is not easy. Working on yourself is one of the hardest things you can do, but the most rewarding, and I would be honored to walk alongside you as you do this meaningful work.

Hi, I'm Teshia. Despite your best efforts, do you find yourself on the verge of divorce? Your marriage may be a disaster, but your divorce doesn't have to be! As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with nearly 20 years of experience as a family law paralegal, I possess a unique set of skills that are invaluable to those who find themselves in the throes of divorce. In addition to providing support through one of the most difficult life transitions, understanding that the legal process of divorce has the potential to inhibit the healing process and completely devastate families, I provide my clients with a better way to divorce...a way that builds up instead of tears down...a way that refashions your family instead of leaving it shattered. Since every ending brings a new beginning, my goal as your therapist is to guide you through the uncertainty of divorce, help you regain your balance and help you lay the foundation for a HEALTHY new beginning. No matter where you are in the divorce process, whether working as your therapist or as your divorce coach, I am dedicated to helping you regroup, recover and grow.

Hi, I'm Victoria, I've been honing my specialties for 30 years. I specialize in releasing trauma and old beliefs, rewiring mental habits to result in improved confidence, self esteem, clarity to follow dreams and goals. Since training in the bilateral therapies (EMDR, A.R.T., and Brainspotting) I've witnessed healing on a whole new level. Changing beliefs, thoughts and feelings that have been lifelong takes more than talking about, in my opinion. It requires change in the deep sub conscious, a place easily entered and "edited" utilizing these therapies, works much better and faster than only talking. This is my experience, and the reason why I specialize in these deeper, more sub conscious therapies. In addition, there are times when people prefer to talk, gaining much needed insight (light bulb moments) and releasing thoughts they don't feel comfortable sharing with others. Or, you need to problem solve, work through something cognitively. I practice other therapies that utilize talking as a main modality, too. The main priority is that you're comfortable. We will explore and find just that right fit, regarding modalities that work and also feel in sync with your needs.

Welcome! You made the first step of looking up a therapist. Regardless of family structure, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, race, or other minority identity, you are welcome. Though it’s up to you to determine whether I meet the definition of ‘ally’, I will always do my best to provide a welcoming, inclusive, safe space for all, and view therapy through a social justice lens. I know from personal experience how hard it can be to recover from burnout, body image + identity issues, trauma, and chronic stress. It can take deep and extensive self-care, reflection, and big life transitions. I get it – change is hard, but you already have what you need within you to make it happen. If you're telling yourself you should be able to get better on your own, that's really not true. It's a made up rule you're telling yourself and it's rooted in stigma. Everybody needs some help sometimes! My style has been called refreshingly honest, direct, and I've been told I have a good "BS detector". I enjoy helping people learn to become better at trusting their own intuition. I like helping people who want to start living differently by making big changes. There is a lot of laughter in my office.

As a seasoned psychotherapist and owner of my practice for over a decade, my purpose has always been to enlighten, uplift, and support those pursuing personal growth. My approach, rooted in a rich tapestry of therapeutic modalities, particularly shines with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and innovative techniques that bridge profound understanding.

My mission is to guide you toward empowerment, enabling you to sculpt the most authentic and elevated version of yourself. In my quest to stay at the forefront of therapeutic innovation, I have integrated groundbreaking modalities like Frequency Therapy and Virtual Reality (VR) Therapy into my practice. VR Therapy, a pioneering approach, offers clients an immersive experience using VR headsets, granting them 24/7 access to guided meditations, mindfulness exercises, and breathwork sessions. This avant-garde method enhances focus and serves as a steadfast ally during moments of heightened stress or anxiety. Excitingly, I am broadening these eclectic therapeutic horizons by venturing into the metaverse and expanding my services to reach and resonate in this burgeoning digital realm.

I am a seasoned therapists who places significant amount of importance on developing a therapeutic relationship. My skillset includes a whole person approach that covers both physical and emotional well-being. I utilize primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Mindfulness. In addition, I utilize my certification in Health Coaching to ensure physical aspects are addressed that may be impacted your mental health. I have never narrowed my practice to a specific diagnosis; however I do find that I work a lot with Depression, Anxiety, Relationships, Co-Dependency, and Weight Related Diagnoses.

I am a Therapist who is a little bit more "seasoned" than most of the Clinician's that seem to be available in most practices, where my many life experiences have helped me work toward the main goal in my life, to be able to come along side others. Every client has their own stories which bring them to the place of seeking help and the seasoning(s) occurring in my life have helped me to be able to empathetically listen to the client's particular situation(s) and help them work toward achieving the goals and therapy outcomes they are seeking in their own lives.

While I specialize in anxiety, trauma, ADHD, substance use, and depression--I have significant experience with a wide range of diagnoses. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Pennsylvania and have been committed to creating a safe, supportive, and down-to-earth space for healing and growth ever since. My goal for each session is for you to leave with direction--knowing a little more clearly what you should do next.

Well hello! My name is Lori. Are you feeling the need to live your life differently? Are the things you've tried in the past no longer beneficial or adequate for this stage in your life? I encourage my clients to do the things that they've never done in order to experience the life they've always wanted. I help them identify the source of what has limited them and caused them emotional pain, whether it be from anxiety or depression stemming from childhood trauma, broken relationships, toxic work environment, sexuality, aging, or religious trauma to name a few. I enjoy working alongside my clients and being a part of their "aha!!" moments on their life's journey. I utilize my belief in the interconnectedness of humanity with nature to assist my clients in understanding life, growth, change, grace and what constitutes true success.

Hello! I have worked as a counselor for 10+ years now. I earned my bachelor's degree from Lees-McRae College in beautiful Banner Elk, NC, and my master's degree from Western Carolina University in Cullowhee, NC. As a therapist, I truly delight in problem-solving and coming up with solutions. But I also value being a good listener and holding space (I know, that term is a bit overdone right now….).
