I’m a licensed clinical mental health counselor. My approach is warm, person-centered, and grounded in empathy, honesty, and collaboration. I work with individuals and couples navigating life transitions, trauma, grief, anxiety, relationship issues, and identity-related challenges. My goal is to help each client feel seen, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes. With over a decade of experience, I specialize in trauma-informed care, drawing from Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I’m also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which allows me to help clients process and heal from past trauma in a safe and structured way. Before counseling, I worked in nursing, where I saw firsthand the impact of unaddressed emotional pain. That insight continues to shape my commitment to holistic, compassionate care. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready to grow, I’m here to walk alongside you with curiosity and care. At R&R Counseling, I strive to create a space where you can breathe, reflect, and take steps toward the life you want. Therapy isn’t about fixing you, it’s about rediscovering your strength.

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!

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. I sincerely believe that life's experiences, even the challenging ones, are vessels of wisdom. In our sessions, together, we will unravel the core barriers holding you back, harnessing those insights to face life's challenges head-on. 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.

I am a licensed therapist with over 7 years of experience specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), couples counseling, and Christian counseling. My passion is helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, emotional resilience, and purpose. In my work with individuals, I primarily use CBT to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns that impact their mood and behavior. I believe in a practical, goal-oriented approach that equips clients with tools they can apply in everyday life, whether they're dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, or life transitions. My sessions are collaborative and supportive, creating a space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. With couples, I focus on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and resolving conflict in ways that foster deeper connection. I draw from evidence-based methods like the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy, tailoring the process to fit each couple’s unique dynamic. For those who desire a faith-based approach, I also offer Christian counseling. I integrate biblical principles, prayer, and spiritual reflection into the therapeutic process when appropriate. This allows for holistic healing that honors both emotional and spiritual needs, offering hope and a stronger sense of purpose. What sets my practice apart is my commitment to creating a warm, judgment-free environment where real change can take place. I see therapy as a partnership—one that honors your story, builds on your strengths, and supports you in becoming the person or couple you’re called to be. Whether you’re facing a specific struggle or simply seeking to grow, I’m here to walk with you through the process. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to go through it alone.

Hello, I am Darrell Patterson Does your life seem to be dictated by everything around you except for you and the things you want and love about being able to be fully you without shame, guilt or apology? I assist people with centering or recentering their thoughts around their intentions, their attentiveness and their mindfulness in healthy and helpful ways to live life on a win-win basis. Together, we can identify what is healthy and helpful to your intentions giving you the ability to set a path that is supportive of you and the intentions you have for success in all areas of your life (mentally, emotionally, spiritually, socially, financially and so on). We will explore a love for your whole self approach to address the areas of yourself that are not currently a welcomed part of the whole. Whether you are experiencing feelings of being overwhelmed, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I am here to assist you. Seeking therapy can feel uncomfortable but you are making a conscious choice to regain the best version of yourself. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. I believe the most important thing about therapy is being compassionate and introducing evidence-based techniques and interventions so you can overcome the adverse experiences that have become hindrances to your intentions for a healthy and happy life. Let's work together to find your win-win path and village.

My training, clinical background and experience supports a culturally informed and sensitive approach focused solely on your needs, beliefs and goals. I look at our collaborative therapeutic relationship much like being an honored passenger seat support for your path as the driver. I believe in inherent, unconditional and unchangeable self-worth as the fundamental foundation. Life’s ups and downs being the variable factors that can impact confidence, self-esteem and emotional well-being. I believe in therapy because I have seen the value it brings both as therapist and as a client myself. Thank you for considering me, I look forward to working with you. :-)

I also enjoy working with couples of any age and type. I prefer to utilize the Strengthening Families Program. An evidence-based practice that has fantastic material related to thought management, symptom/feelings management, communication skills, and life/family structure. I highlight the importance of rest, nutrition, and exercise for anyone trying to get better at anything or trying to be more healthy.

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read my biography. I am so happy you went with your instinct to start counseling. I have been a Therapist for over 14 years and my specialization is marriage and family therapy. I have over 30 years experience working with people in one capacity or another. I was a substitute teacher at an alternative high school; I was a silver star rescue diver and an EMT-Intermediate; and, I had worked at a psychiatric hospital for people ages 12 through 80. These few noted experiences have led to my capacity to be an empathetic Therapist while helping others achieve their own goals using their own strengths. My fee is $150 cash only for couples or families. Otherwise, for individual therapy you are able to use your insurance if accepted.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by North Carolina rather than a city like Charlotte?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across North Carolina from Raleigh to Greensboro! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in North Carolina.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Couples Counseling?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Couples Counseling, is filtering therapists in North Carolina that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
