Therapists in North Carolina

Welcome! If you are seeking a down to earth and relaxed therapist- you are in the right place! I specialize in creating a safe and affirming space for individuals within the LGBTQ+ communities- where I have lived experience, any individuals navigating chronic illness and caregiving, and folks impacted by hoarding behaviors. I understand how important it is to feel heard and validated, especially when dealing with sensitive topics such as anxiety, chronic disorganization, gender identity, transgender health, trauma, depression, boundary setting, communication skills, and more. I write letters of support for gender affirming care.

I received a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and Social Psychology from Lehigh University in 2003 and graduated from Columbia University in 2007 with a Master of Science in Social Work. I started Endurance Counseling, my private practice, in 2023 after working as a pediatric transplant social worker at Levine Children's Hospital since 2019. I specialize in health/illness, medical education, medical/social trauma, anxiety/depression, chronic pain/disability, grief/bereavement, and loss. I trained in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at Columbia Presbyterian Children's Hospital in NYC and was subsequently hired to work there in Pediatric Oncology with patients diagnosed with Leukemia and Lymphoma. I worked at Columbia for 5 years before transitioning to working in Adult Oncology at NYU Langone Health for the following 5 years. While at NYU, I primarily cared for patients diagnosed with Gynecologic cancers and Neurological cancers such as neuroblastoma and glioblastoma. Some of my focus included patients with hematological cancers, breast cancer, lung cancer and carcinomas such as prostate cancer. I have extensive experience facilitating support groups for patients at various stages of illness and treatment specifically diagnosed with ovarian, endometrial, cervical cancer and breast cancer. I am a thoughtful, sensitive, empathic, collaborative, and hard-working clinician who genuinely cares and strives to make a difference in the well-being of each of my patients. My passion is working with children and families impacted by medical issues and chronic pain. I have extensive experience working in hospital settings providing a range of supportive services to patients diagnosed with acute and chronic medical conditions.

Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), licensed in North Carolina. My passion is working with people who are in transition to a better life, or know that they want a better life, but not sure how to get there. One of my passions has become helping teen girls improve their relationships with their mothers, so when the girls become adults, there is actually a friendship.

I am a veteran of the helping professions, having served since 1982 in some capacity or another, and I still find excitement in the possibility of helping those who need such assistance. I am currently licensed in two states, both North Carolina and Pennsylvania. I find many people respond to my ability to simply listen and that shows that they do not often feel they have been heard and sometimes this is all that is necessary to start the journey to begin healing. Certainly more is often required, and helping people connect with effective treatments whether provided by myself or not is the best help that can be given.

My goal is to assist you in developing your vision and journey in becoming your best and desired self. I am person centered and enjoy applying creative strategies in my practice; such as the use of art, music-videos, narrative mediums and activities. I believe that everyone is capable of change. I have extensive experience with working with adolescents, adults, and families. I am an active supporter of persons and groups of varied cultural backgrounds and individuals in the LGBTQ+ community.

Hi there! I am Stephen Kovacs a licensed clinical social worker with 5 years of experience helping adults who feel constantly “on edge” from anxiety and panic—always braced for the next shoe to drop, even when life looks fine from the outside. I’m licensed as an LISW-CP in South Carolina and an LCSW in North Carolina and Virginia and practice predominantly in the evenings via telehealth. My focus is on high-responsibility adults who are tired of living in survival mode: racing thoughts, worst‑case scenarios, physical symptoms like a racing heart or tight chest, and the burnout that comes from holding everything together for everyone else. Together, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what anxiety and panic are doing in your body and your life, and build concrete tools to manage spirals, reduce avoidance, and feel more in control day to day—not with fluffy advice, but with step‑by‑step, doable changes.

Have you ever been blindsided by life? Do you ever feel overwhelmed by your feelings and emotions? Are you having difficulty balancing and navigating through relationships, finances, and/or your career? Do you compare yourself to people who seem to have it all figured out? Trust me, we have all been there trying to figure out this beautiful thing called LIFE. It is my passion to assist people navigating through the highs and lows of their personal life. I like to view our sessions as collaborations to help you put things in perspective and hopefully obtain the solutions you seek. My desire is to empower you to live the life that you want to live. I have experience working in various settings such as school, jail/prison, and in the community. Because of my clinical experiences and background, I can provide a non-judgmental approach for you to speak freely about any life situation. Let’s get through life together.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, mentally unsteady, or unsure how to move forward — you don’t have to carry that alone. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and graduate of North Carolina State University. I work with adults navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, relationship stress, and questions of direction or purpose. Many of the people I support feel capable and motivated — yet internally worn down, struggling to feel grounded, present, or confident in themselves. My primary focus is helping clients stabilize emotionally and mentally — so you feel more anchored, regulated, and clear. From that place of steadiness, we begin to explore how you can grow into the fullest version of yourself, making the most of your strengths, values, and lived experience rather than trying to become someone you’re not. Therapy with me is not about pushing or fixing — it’s about creating a solid foundation where clarity, confidence, and meaningful change can naturally emerge. For those who find meaning and strength in their Christian faith, I welcome that as part of our work together — though spirituality is never required or assumed. You bring what matters to you, and we build from there.

In life, we all move through peaks and valleys. While the high points can feel expansive and full of possibility, the valleys often feel isolating, overwhelming, or unclear. My work centers on helping clients feel less alone in those difficult moments and more empowered to navigate them with confidence, clarity, and self‑compassion.

If you’re ready to step into a space where you don’t have to navigate the valleys alone, I’m here to walk with you.

I help people untangle the messy parts of life, whether it's anxiety, relationship hiccups, burnout, or just that nagging feeling that something's "off".

I use evidence -based techniques and empathy to assist you in making sense of your story and editing it as you may, build resilience, and move forward with purpose.

I love love, and I love helping people to heal. Understanding healing occurs on all levels, I've dedicated myself for the last 23 years to being a vessel to help people navigate those levels and find their peace.

I provide individual and family therapy using a person-centered, collaborative approach that meets you where you are—without judgment and without pressure to be “fixed.” I view therapy as a partnership, and I work alongside clients to support meaningful, sustainable change. My approach focuses on helping clients identify their strengths, increase self-awareness, recognize support systems, and take accountability in ways that promote growth rather than shame. I use an eclectic, evidence-based framework, drawing from Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, Family Systems Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness-based practices. Interventions are always tailored to each client’s unique needs, goals, and lived experiences. My work is grounded in a few core beliefs: people are doing the best they can with the skills they have, people are capable of change, and people do get better. I also believe that a strong therapeutic relationship creates the safety necessary for healing and growth. To support progress outside of sessions, I may offer practical, collaborative between-session exercises that help clients apply skills in their daily lives. I am a Christian counselor, and my faith informs my values of compassion, dignity, and respect. I work with individuals from all backgrounds, beliefs, and identities, and faith is incorporated into therapy only when requested by the client. In addition to my professional role, I am a wife, lifelong learner, and mother of three, including a son on the autism spectrum. These experiences deepen my empathy and understanding of caregiving, advocacy, and navigating complex systems.

Do you experience feelings of anxiety, stress, or trauma? Are these concerns impacting you at home, work, or other places? Seeking therapy can be scary, however, you have made the right decision.

If you have energy circling a specific question, issue, concern, or experience and/or are finding yourself missing or longing for something, feeling stuck, wanting more, intellectualizing less, or wanting to feel more connected in some way to what you already know, please reach out.

I work with clients navigating stress, trauma, grief, and major life transitions, and I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you can feel heard and understood. My approach is collaborative and focused on helping you build practical coping skills, strengthen resilience, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.

Hi, I'm Brie Hardy, and I'm so glad you found your way here. If you're a woman navigating anxiety, depression, stress, or a major life transition, you are in the right place. Maybe you are juggling work, relationships, or new responsibilities and feeling overwhelmed or unsure of how to move forward. Maybe you just feel like you have lost touch with yourself somewhere along the way. Whatever brought you here, I want you to know that you do not have to figure it out alone. I specialize in supporting women through the everyday challenges that can feel anything but ordinary. My approach is warm, collaborative, and completely tailored to you. I create a safe, judgment-free space where we can work together to build coping skills, increase your confidence, and help you feel more like yourself again. Sessions with me feel like a real conversation. I take the time to truly understand your experience and what you need, not just what is on the surface. Together we will work at a pace that feels right for you toward the changes that matter most. Outside of my work I am passionate about spending my faith, spending time with my family and getting creative with crafts, cooking and baking, which keeps me grounded and connected to the human side of this work. If you are ready to take that first step I would love to connect with you. Let's get started.
