Therapists in North Carolina

Hi! I’m Jada, a licensed therapist dedicated to helping individuals feel more grounded, confident, and emotionally balanced in their daily lives. I specialize in working with high-functioning people who may appear to have everything together on the outside, yet internally feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained. I understand how easy it can be to get stuck in cycles of overthinking, people-pleasing, and constantly prioritizing others while neglecting your own needs. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling exhausted, uncertain, or disconnected from themselves, and are ready to make meaningful changes. My approach is warm, supportive, and direct. I aim to create a space where you feel comfortable being open and honest, while also helping you challenge patterns that no longer serve you. I believe therapy should not only provide insight but also offer practical tools you can apply in your everyday life. I am passionate about helping my clients build healthier boundaries, improve their relationships, and strengthen their sense of self so they can show up more confidently and intentionally in all areas of life.

I have a nurturing, empathetic nature no matter how difficult the situation you may be facing. I use this to provide comfort and stability that you may not be experiencing elsewhere. I would be honored to help guide you through your journey whether it be major or simply needing a listening ear. I have several years of experience working with many different individuals.

I received my master’s degree in social work from University of South Carolina. My post-graduate work focuses predominately on child welfare, specifically working with young children, young adolescents, and their families who have experienced trauma within their home. I also have considerable experience working with numerous populations such as victims of domestic violence, mental illness, substance abuse, homelessness, and those who are developmentally disabled. I use a number of different therapeutic approaches when working with clients, focusing mainly on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with 10 years of experience in treating anxiety, depression, as well as specializing in trauma and how it impacts the individual and family unit. I am highly experienced in working with active duty and retired military, as well as other first responders. In addition to military trauma I also am highly experienced in working with sexual trauma of many forms. Mental health concerns can present in many ways and impact our quality of life to various degrees. My goal as a therapist is to help you to overcome whatever challenges you may be facing in your life and help you feel like “you” again. It is an honor to work with people in the most vulnerable areas of their life, and this is a commitment I take seriously.

Howdy! My name is Russell and I look forward to meeting you and working together! Taking the step to seek out therapy services can be the biggest hurdle to overcome, yet here you are. You made it! Even exploring options for therapy demonstrates the motivation that you have for positive change in your life. I enjoy taking a collaborative approach to working with all of my clients because you are the expert in your own life and know yourself the best. I am here as a support while you discover more about yourself. I am a LCMHC (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor) with the state of North Carolina. I have a background working with various ages and demographics in a variety of settings. This includes children aged 6+ to pre-teens, adolescents, adults, families, and couples. I have worked in inpatient hospital settings, assisted with Intensive In-Home services for at-risk youth and their families, as well as with clients in traditional office-based environments providing outpatient therapy. My clinical expertise and the most frequent concerns that I help clients with are anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger management, relationship issues, family issues, and phase of life concerns. I tend to naturally gravitate toward adolescents who are struggling with navigating their lives, however, I enjoy working with all individuals regardless of age or background since life is a struggle for all of us. I tend to take a laid-back, relaxed (but professional) stance when working with clients to make the therapeutic process as welcoming and comfortable as possible!

I have over 12 years of experience within the mental health field and I am solely focused on helping you move through life’s challenges with clarity, confidence, and real support.

I earned my master’s degree in social work from UNC Chapel Hill in 2008 and became clinically licensed in 2021. My career has been spent in physical and mental healthcare, with a focus on hospice, chronic illness, and caregiver support. I specialize in supporting people facing serious or life-limiting illnesses, as well as those navigating caregiver stress, anxiety, anticipatory grief, and grief after a loss. I also have extensive experience working with individuals and families through adoption, infertility, miscarriage, and pregnancy loss. I know how stressful, lonely, and scary major life changes can be, and want to be a safe, nonjudgemental presence for you to sort out your complex feelings, and discover your capacity for healing and growth, even in the darkest of times.
