Hello, I am Wanda Kellyman, a dedicated and highly qualified professional specializing in mental health and personal development. My extensive qualifications include National Certified Counselor, Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, Board Certified Life Coach, and Mindfulness Practitioner. With these credentials, I've honed my expertise in providing transformative therapy and guidance to individuals seeking personal growth and healing. My therapeutic approach is rooted in holism and strength-based principles. I understand that each person is a complex being with interconnected aspects of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Rather than focusing solely on problems or deficits, I empower my clients by highlighting their innate strengths and resources, helping them effectively navigate life's challenges. To create a more engaging and dynamic therapeutic process, I integrate various forms of creative expression into my sessions. Through poetry, art, music, meditation, and movement, I encourage clients to explore and communicate their inner emotions and thoughts. This creative dimension not only fosters self-expression but also deepens self-awareness and introspection, leading to profound personal insights and growth. By harmonizing my certifications, experiences, and passion for holistic well-being, I strive to cultivate a supportive and compassionate environment where individuals can flourish and embark on their unique journeys of self-discovery and transformation. I firmly believe in the immense potential within each person to lead a fulfilling and purposeful life, and I am wholeheartedly committed to guiding them on that empowering path toward mental and emotional well-being. The overarching theme of my approach can be summarized in three words: Engagement, Empowerment, and Bliss. Through engagement in creative and reflective processes, clients find the power to empower themselves and ultimately achieve a state of blissful well-being.

Hello and thank you for stopping by. Right now you may be searching for some peace of mind and need help with that. Perhaps we could work as a team to find some good, solid problem resolution tools to help you get that relief and regain some emotional balance. I like to use small measurable goals that add up quickly to a solution. That technique tends to remove a great deal of angst around issues and usually takes less time. I also can and do fit techniques and tools to your specific needs and requirements. My active credentials are Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor. I am licensed in North Carolina and have over twenty years of counseling experience. Most clients select weekly sessions that go an hour. I am flexible with audio and video, so I can adapt to the mandates of your insurance requirements. If you are interested in pursuing this journey together, you can easily receive the initial intake form, complete it and send it back. Then we can schedule and start our process. Remember that wherever you go, whomever you choose, I just want you to get the help you need and start feeling better. Respectfully, Melody Flannery, MS, LCAS, CRC, LCMHC

Hi there, my name is Briana and I am here to support you through various challenges and transitions. We can oftentimes feeling frustrated, stuck, or anxious - whether this be as a spouse, parent, employee, or just feeling overwhelmed as a human in general. We can all experience getting to a place where we feel completely numb & just trying to survive. You might feel like a hamster running on its wheel, feeling completely stuck and going nowhere, unsure of what to do differently. Maybe you're trying to heal on your own from the things that you never talk about, and are in need of someone who can listen & validate your emotions.

I specifically use interpersonal psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Family Systems Therapy, and Mindfulness Based Counseling. All treatments are supported by the following values: • People are doing the best they can with the skills that they have. • People can change. • People do get better. • People may not have created their problems, but they do have to live with them. • The therapeutic relationship is a safe place to explore issues, learn innovative ways of thinking and acting, and practice skills. To maximize the benefits of counseling, I will often ask clients to complete homework assignments including practicing new skills with follow up reports. I am also a mother, wife, life long student, parent of a disabled child, and support to many.

Well hello! My name is Lori. Are you feeling the need to live your life differently? Are the things you've tried in the past no longer beneficial or adequate for this stage in your life? I encourage my clients to do the things that they've never done in order to experience the life they've always wanted. I help them identify the source of what has limited them and caused them emotional pain, whether it be from anxiety or depression stemming from childhood trauma, broken relationships, toxic work environment, sexuality, aging, or religious trauma to name a few. I enjoy working alongside my clients and being a part of their "aha!!" moments on their life's journey. I utilize my belief in the interconnectedness of humanity with nature to assist my clients in understanding life, growth, change, grace and what constitutes true success.

Imagine life is like a journey completely in your control but you feel stuck. Choices you make dictate life’s obstacles and they can be tricky. Life’s journey comes with no instruction pamphlet or ready-made companions. A path unfolds and you decide what to do and who to trust along the way. As you journey you begin to see things you want, potential companions, places you want to explore, and tools you can use to make travels simpler. There are so many choices to make with no time to stop and contemplate the best decision; you have to keep going by making choices every day, about everything. Decisions and deadlines do not wait. Consequences of decisions do not wait for preparations of readiness. Age does not determine how hard life can be nor deter reality. Whether you are age 5 or 95, you have to wake up daily and continue life’s journey, but it is not always an easy task. My theoretical orientation is Person-Centered Therapy and Gestalt Therapy. Let me be your Phoenix! I believe life’s tools are inside of us, self-actualization, self-trust, coping strategies, and the willingness to grow. We simply must explore them. At Rapunzel's Phoenix Counseling Services, I help toddlers, children, adolescents, adults, families, and the LGBTQIAPK community. Online Counseling Services are available upon request.

After completing my undergraduate Degree in Media Communications at Asbury University, I spent a year working alongside at-risk youth in inner-city Houston where my desire to become a counselor began. Upon leaving Houston, I moved back Charlotte to be close to family and pursue a Masters In Clinical Mental Health at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. During that time utilized my creative abilities to teach high school photography, full time video edit, and freelance local photography and videography. Upon graduating with my masters and becoming licensed, I worked in community-based services for more than 4 years, counseling teens and at-risk youth and their families in the Charlotte area. During my time, I gained a wealth of knowledge in clinical care, confidence in myself as a new clinician and, developed a love for in home therapy and higher levels of care. Even though my desire to own my own practice led me to step down fully from community based services, I still continue to clinically lead an intensive in home team with a local organization in Charlotte on my days when I am not in the office. On the weekends you can almost always find me hanging out with my husband, hiking, eating my way though the city—and making up for it on the Peloton—or constantly laughing at my goofy Sheepadoodle named Pepper—I have high hopes that one day she will be chill enough to be my therapy assistant.
