Therapists in North Carolina

Welcome! It can be intimidating to sign up for therapy, so I applaud you for being here! I am Christine Kirby, a Licensed Mental Health Therapist for the past 29 years. I graduated from New York University and have worked in various inpatient and outpatient mental health programs. I primarily use a mindfulness-cognitive behavioral, trauma-informed approach to therapy. I enjoy working together with my clients to build on strengths and manage feelings of anxiety and depression, whatever the root cause. I am particularly passionate about helping young adults find their way in the world, working with parents who have children with special needs, couples counseling, healing from trauma, assisting women through the menopause transition, and navigating family and career challenges. We will partner to help balance emotions and strengthen your relationships with yourself, family, friends, and coworkers. I value creating a space for you to openly discuss your feelings and experiences in a nonjudgmental setting that can help you better manage the stress of life.

I am a long time insight meditator who has committed their life to finding ways to solve the problem of human suffering through gentle skills teaching. The practices I use with my clients are the same ones I use in my own life. I believe in developing self compassion and skillful communication to improve harmony and insight into our inner worlds and with our relationships with others.

Would you like to create space for work/ life balance? Would it be helpful to learn more about the connection between your behaviors, feelings, and thoughts? Are you ready to talk about coping strategies- both those that work and learn new ones? I work collaboratively with individuals and families to manage stressors, feelings of stress and anxiety, and cope with addictions. I help clients develop coping strategies that may challenge past thoughts and behaviors but lead toward the accomplishment of goals. Sometimes, it is simply reminding ourselves of what worked before and getting back on track and other times, it is about learning something never practiced before.

Whether through meditation, words, or movement, I am ready to help you move you through “this” into the next phase of your life. Most of my social work career was in the case management area, so problem-solving treatment, motivational interviewing, setting and knocking down goals is a favorite approach of mine. I’m also a certified, trained yoga and meditation instructor, and reiki master, so I also am able to incorporate eastern philosophy into our work together. Whatever the approach, we are in this together. “This” could be depression, anxiety, transitions, loss, life. Let me help guide you to find your strengths, embrace your innate resiliency, and reach your best you. With the combination of various healing processes, we will work together with respect and compassion to develop the tools to get you to where you want to be.
