As a former military brat and spouse (married 18 years), working mother, single mother, trauma survivor, I've intimately understood the complexities of life's transitions. My journey has taken me from being a stay-at-home mom to transitioning back into the workforce, granting me a unique appreciation for both roles. I'm a devoted mother of two children, and my path has been marked by significant challenges, including the struggle with infertility and profound grief. I proudly identify as a feminist and supporter of the LGBTQ+ community. These aspects of my identity deeply influence my approach to life and work. With a background in working with families, individuals, and children, I bring a wealth of experience. My personal journey has shaped my empathetic, compassionate, and inclusive perspective, which I offer as a source of support and understanding to those I work with.

Hi, I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina. I earned my Master’s from Simmons University and have been practicing for the past 8 years. Reaching out for support takes a lot of courage and curiosity—and I want to acknowledge that just by being here, you’re already taking an important step. Life has a way of creating all kinds of transitions. Some can feel like waves of excitement and full of growth and opportunity, while others feel overwhelming, unclear, scary, or just plain hard. I work with people navigating many types of life changes, including (and not limited to): retirement, grief and loss, changes in independence, career shifts, caregiving stress, medical diagnoses, identity exploration, separation or divorce. And with those changes often come things like anxiety, depression, loneliness, or feeling disconnected from yourself. My approach is holistic, somatic informed, and person-centered. That means we’ll focus on your strengths, your body and mind, your story, and what matters most to you as we work together to bring more balance, purpose, and joy into your life. You don’t have to go through it alone. I’m here to support you.

Welcome—I'm so glad you're here and taking the step to prioritize your well-being. With the pressures of the world and our own self-criticism, it can feel impossible to uncover our own self-confidence, self-esteem, and self-worth. These emotions and feelings can show up in our lives in many different ways. Not wanting to get out bed. Placing limits on yourself due to a fear of failing. The expectations you place on yourself and are given to you by others can feel suffocating. I offer a comfortable space to be allow yourself to be vulnerable and find your strength to lead your life the way you choose. We will work on recognizing patterns of behavior and disrupting negative cycles. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to on track. Life is too short to not give yourself an opportunity to make positive changes in your life. Reaching out to a therapist can be intimidating. The fact that you made it to my profile is a WIN! I hope you can take the time to reach out and schedule an appointment to start this change in your life. I would like to help assist you along your journey.

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.

A little bit about me, my name is Amanda Chilleme, I am a Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Master’s Certified Addiction professional. For the last 11 years I have been helping my clients identify intrinsically important goals, overcoming obstacles, and build the foundation for a better future. My specialty has been working with men and women struggling with both substance abuse and process or behavioral addictions; helping them to find the pathway to a life unencumbered. I also have years of experience treating clients with anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorders, bereavement, trauma, attachment, and personality disorders. As a clinician, I utilize a human focused approach. I am not here to tell you what you need to work on; you already know the “what”. As a clinician, it is my job to help you understand the “why”, and eventually, the “how” (to fix it, overcome it, or just plain throw it away). Your first session, is essentially a two-way interview; as I listen to your story/narrative, and the “rough draft” begins to unfold, WE as a team determine if, 1) I am the right therapist for you, and 2) If you are the right client for me. If we both agree to move forward from the first session, identifying your goals will be your first assignment; giving you the opportunity to do this, helps me to better see how you think and interpret your barriers (i.e. stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, etc.). I am your coach, teammate, and cheer leader! We will focus on one goal at a time. Whether you are just starting this process, or you have been in it for a while, I encourage you to plant that mustard seed, and watch just how beautifully you can grow.

Hello, I'm a LCSW in the great state of North Carolina with 4 years of professional work experience working as a Psychotherapist on an assertive community treatment team. I have experience in helping clients with anxiety, depression, anger management, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, and developing self-care and coping skills. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. During the initial intake it is important to build a therapeutic relationship while obtaining a clear understanding regarding the expectations of the person being served. Once the intake has been completed it is important to develop a personal center plan in-order to work toward accomplishing short-term and long-term goals tailored to meet the unique and specific needs of the individual being served. Over the past 4 years I have been using evidenced based interventions CBT, ACT, and Psych Rehab to assist the people I serve with reducing the severity of their ongoing symptoms and problems. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I look forward to working with anyone who is looking to take that first step.

My name is Laurie Kaufmann and I am a licensed clinical social worker based in North Carolina. I received my Masters degree from Adelphi University in NY and have been practicing for 12 years now. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults and worked in a residential treatment facility for teen girls on Long Island for 22 years. I enjoy helping my clients look back on the family history that shapes them and learn ways to live in the present and successfully move forward. I work on helping my clients develop coping skills, think positively, change negative cognitions into more positive ways of thinking and bolstering self-esteem. I want to help a glass half-empty thinker to see that glass as half-full, or as full as we can make it.

Hi, I’m Tia and I approach therapy with the mindset that every client has internal skills that give them the ability to reach personal goals. I am a Licensed Professional counselor (LPC,) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC). I utilize an integrative client-centered approach, where the client takes the lead as the expert on their life and patterns of behaviors, and I help guide the client to uncover causes of core belief systems that fuel areas of concern. My role in this process is to support clients with encouragement while also maintaining accountability for positive change.

Welcome! I'm Chelsey! First and foremost, I would like to thank you for coming to Grow to acknowledge your current mental health needs. I know that this can sometimes feel overwhelming, scary, and uncomfortable. It is important to know that you are validated, and heard. As an open-minded therapist, I want you to know that it is important to me to be able to have a relationship with you that is professional but yet comfortable. I want you to feel the ability to speak freely in so you can begin the healing process. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. Counseling can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share. • I received my Master’s degree at Indiana Wesleyan University. • I have been practicing therapeutic services since 2020 in the height of the Covid-19 Pandemic. Prior to this, I was fortunate enough to also work as a case manager in both the community, and in the schools. I have experience in telehealth as well as enhanced services in Medicaid on a state & county level. I have experience with all ages and client developmental and life stages. I primary assist with issues of depression, anxiety, trauma, life-transitions, family dynamic transitions, grief, complex illness, and end-of-life issues. Please feel free to ask any questions as I am happy to help in any way I can.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide compassionate and culturally sensitive care for adults navigating grief, loss, trauma, and major life changes. I know how overwhelming it can feel when life shifts in ways you never expected, and my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you don’t have to carry those feelings alone. My approach blends genuine empathy with evidence-based strategies, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and grief-informed practices. Together, we’ll work on practical skills to manage strong emotions, set healthy boundaries, and find moments of peace in the middle of pain. I believe deeply in honoring each person’s story, culture, and strengths. I also recognize that Black individuals and other marginalized communities often face unique challenges around grief, resilience, and mental health, and I strive to hold space for those experiences with care and understanding. Healing isn’t about “moving on,” but about learning how to carry your experiences with more balance, meaning, and hope. Whether you are coping with loss, adjusting to major changes, or feeling weighed down by stress, I will walk beside you with compassion and encouragement. My hope is that our work together helps you reconnect with your strength and rediscover a sense of healing and renewal.
