Hello! I am a licensed therapist in both North Carolina and New York. I find great fulfillment in working with individuals needing assistance in better managing their mood stability, emotions, anxiety, relationships, codependency, and life adjustment stressors. Reaching out to a new therapist for the first time can feel overwhelming and very vulnerable. My main goal is always helping potential and established clients feel safe, respected, and heard.

Hi, my name is Eva. I have been practicing in the mental health and substance-abuse field for almost 30 years and during that time I have come to learn a lot about what it takes to help a person move from one place to another and it has also taught me how to move from one place to another so that I too can live my best life . I believe that we all need help from time to time and someone to help us see clearly when we have difficulty seeing things clearly ourselves. My best practice of therapy is being eclectic, which means in simple terms that I use whatever technique I need to to reach my client wherever they are at. This includes all best practices that are evidence-based to work with women, young adults, men and children who all have a common need to feel heard and supported. I specialize in a variety of treatment modalities that include trauma, substance abuse, anxiety/ depression, and other mood/mental disorders, and I desire to help all my clients improve their current life situation so that they can begin to live their best lives.

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.

Need faster healing that addresses mind, body, and emotions? As a Marriage and Family Therapist and Spiritual Life Coach with over 25 years of experience, we can work through your pain or confusion together in a fast and healing way. Whether you’re navigating a short-term challenge or seeking to dive deep into longstanding patterns, I offer a gentle, fast, and holistic approach to healing. My work addresses trauma, heartbreak, confusion, inner child work, grief, anxiety, toxic family dynamics, breakups, relationship issues, narcissistic abuse recovery, major life transitions, car accidents, illness-related challenges, or just needing someone to help work through issues. Many of my clients come to me after trying traditional talk therapy that felt too surface-level or slow. They’re seeking something deeper—something that truly connects the mind, body, spirit, and emotions. My integrative approach combines evidence-based practices (neuroscience, EMDR, CBT, solution-focused strategies) with holistic methods like writing, breathwork, customized meditation, and somatic processing. It’s holistic, real, and focused on genuine, upfront conversations to create meaningful change. I'm also a spiritual life coach and have travelled and helped many on this journey. My style is honest and direct—I work best with clients who are motivated, open to feedback, and ready to actively engage through writing, homework, and weekly sessions.

Hello, I'm Dr. Tatenda Perry, DPA. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Clinical Addictions Counselor (LCAC) with 13 years of experience helping clients work through anxiety and depression. Whether related to work, school, family, relationships, body image, and/or self-esteem, I begin by working with my clients to identify their personal trigger(s). To this end, I tailor each session to specifically address who I’m with, where they are with their unique challenges, and where they are in their life. Then, with this framework setting the stage, I provide an environment of understanding and compassion to allow each client to feel safe and supported as they work to set boundaries and meet their goals. I believe my clients already have what they need within to be successful. It's my job and honor to help them unveil their "hidden" potential in ways that are nurturing, non-judgmental, and compassionate.

Life is full of seasons, some more difficult than others. Many people struggle a long time before seeking mental health care. But mental health is health! Just like in other health specialties, preventative mental health care can be so effective in avoiding crisis and more serious illness. You do not have to suffer to deserve support! No matter the level of stress you are going through, you are worth taking care of. Therapy is a process in which you will clarify how you feel, what you need, and learn how to get more satisfaction from your life. I specialize in working with adults and adolescents that are feeling stuck or overwhelmed by their life circumstances. You are not alone. Together we will work to identify what you need to grow to your full potential!
