A Big Hello to you. You are scanning all these profiles. Looking for something to stand out to make you say,"I will go with this one." It is daunting but you have made it this far. Here is the tip. Your choice is not terminal. It is absolutely ok to try multiple therapists to see who gets you the best. Who understands you the best. After each session, you should feel lighter. You may not recall all that was said, but you will note how you feel. Did you feel heard? Understood? Did the therapist talk to me like they were reading a book or did it sound like they really got me? When you get the right one, those questions will be answered with a firm, Yes.

Hi there, I am Jen. Do you want to improve the quality of your life? Do you want to make long-lasting changes that improve areas of your life such as work and relationships? I empower clients to overcome the daily challenges of dealing with such issues as depression (or other mood disorders), anxiety, PTSD/Trauma, and grief. I'm here to help clients (ages 10 & up) get back to a place in their life where they feel more balanced, secure and to a place where they feel happy with their overall quality of life. I do believe in a holistic approach that focuses on the mind-body-spirit connection. I utilize various techniques that include mindfulness, helping you identify and address irrational thoughts, motivational interviewing and more. I work with clients to identify treatment goals at their 1st appointment, if possible and I also like to assign therapeutic "homework" since this helps clients practice and eventually acquire the skills they need to feel better about themselves and their lives. No matter the issue, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy is a brave thing to do and I will provide a safe space to help you heal and grow. In our sessions, I will provide empathy, active listening and humor to help you overcome what is troubling you. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Hi! I'm Kayla Sease, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of North Carolina. I received my BSW at UNC-Pembroke in 2014 and my MSW in 2015 from the advanced standing program at UNC-Pembroke. I have 8 years of experience in composing the minds of individuals of all ages. I have experience working in various Social Work settings. However, I am passionate about helping young adult women navigate the unique challenges that come with ADHD, especially during the whirlwind years of college life. Balancing academic pressure, social demands, and personal growth can be overwhelming, and ADHD often adds an extra layer of difficulty. But I believe that with the right tools and support, you can not only manage your ADHD but also embrace your unique strengths. My approach is rooted in helping you find composure—a sense of calm and control in the midst of life's chaos. Together, we'll work on strategies to improve focus, manage stress, and develop the self-compassion you need to thrive. Whether it's tackling procrastination, organizing your academic life, or finding ways to stay grounded, I’m here to guide you through it with practical tools and a compassionate, non-judgmental space. If you’ve been struggling with ADHD in college, feeling overwhelmed or disconnected, know that you are not alone. My goal is to help you feel confident, balanced, and equipped to face the challenges of both school and life with clarity and composure. Let’s work together to build the resilience and self-awareness you need to succeed—on your terms.
