A candidate at the Psychoanalytic Center of the Carolinas in Chapel Hill, Dr. Boyce has a deep appreciation of the complexities of the mind as well as the impact of early experiences and relationships. Psychodynamic and psychoanalytic theories offer a comprehensive understanding of human nature. As opposed to other models that aim to solve a particular problem or target symptoms, psychoanalysis gets to the heart of the matter. Dr. Boyce provides therapy that addresses the whole person, helping the individual to develop inner capacities that can improve relationships as well as foster a richer, more meaningful life.

As a clinical therapist, I am dedicated to providing a safe, supportive and comfortable environment for my clients to share their stories and experiences. I am here to offer guidance and support while helping clients navigate through life’s challenges and transitions that may create feelings of anxiety, stress, or depression.

I am Nate Wilson, Jr., MSW, LCAS. I am a Licensed Clinical Addiction Psychotherapist, Specialist. I’ve been in the field of mental health for over 25 years. I’ve worked with various people from various backgrounds as it relates to cultural diversity such as race, gender, religion, ethnicity, and other distinct groups, each of which has different values and lifestyles. I earned my Master of Clinical Social Work from Fordham University, NYC, NY. I have been practicing in a licensed capacity since 2016. As a therapist, I use eclectic therapy approaches that cover many theories.

From a young age, I always knew that I wanted to support others. Creating a space where others feel heard, seen and supported brings me a sense of purpose. As a therapist, I have a passion for working with adults who experience anxiety, grief depression and those who are adjusting to transitions in life. Matt Haig once said "Mental health problems don't define who you are. They are something you experience. You walk in the rain and you feel the rain, but importantly, you are not the rain." This is one of my favorite quotes because it confirms that we have the power to not only define ourselves but create the life we want to live.

Life can bring waves of transition; many are excellent, and others are more complex. I enjoy partnering with older adults and their families to provide support and explore ways to improve the quality of life for all. Typical areas of exploration may include retirement, end of life, grief, loss of independence, caregiver stress, role reversal/confusion, depression, isolation, anxiety, and life inventory. I offer a holistic and client-centered approach embracing empowerment, narratives, and strengths to rebalance joy and fulfillment as life transitions.

I believe we all have the potential to grow through challenges. Rather than living in distress, we can find ways to ease through the difficulties of life. Through my work with cancer patients, I developed a therapeutic framework based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients with various issues move from distress toward peace. In addition, I understand that one size does not fit all, so I use an integrative approach that draws from several disciplines.

Is it time to find a new path? Life can be a difficulty journey, but you are not alone. My name is Dr. Nikki Hozack and I am here to help you navigate life's roadblocks so you can enjoy the ride.

My treatment modality includes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). I pride myself in assisting individuals of all ages with the adverse effects of various life stressors to improve their quality of life. I have counseled individuals who struggle with childhood trauma, anxiety, and depression. As a clinician, I strive to maintain a strong therapeutic alliance, based on trust, respect, and non-judgment. I understand that no two clients are the same, and treatment should be person-centered based on each unique individual.
