Therapists in 28801

Hello! My name is Holly Young, a licensed clinical mental health counselor with over six years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, women's issues, grief & loss, and assertiveness training for teens and adults. I use a mix of modalities such as Dialectical (DBT), Eclectic, Trauma Focused, Motivational Interviewing, and Supportive therapy. I believe that kindness and authenticity are a great quality to have.

Do you want to change something in your life that isn't working for you? Perhaps you've been struggling with anxiety or depression, a relationship that isn't fulfilling, or a lack of purpose for your life. You may have gotten help before but found that it didn't last, or merely removed the symptoms. I will help you get relief by working to resolve your problem at its root cause.

I approach mental health and personality from a holistic perspective. I consider multiple variables when working with clients including mental health, medical history, nutrition, exercise and environment. I would describe my theoretical orientation as eclectic. Eclecticism incorporates therapies from a number of different sources ranging from cognitive-behavioral approaches to alternative treatments such as mindfulness training and meditation. The therapeutic techniques that I use vary from client to client because what works for one person may not work for another. Moreover, I often use more than one therapeutic method depending on my clients' needs.

Are you feeling so overwhelmed that you can’t seem to move forward? Maybe you’re struggling with feelings of sadness or disconnection, or you can’t quite figure out why things are so difficult right now. Navigating life in general is hard and it takes courage to seek help. I’m so glad you’re here. Taking the first step towards therapy can feel overwhelming and scary. I can provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you where you feel seen, heard, and accepted. I strive to do this by showing up authentically with warmth and compassion and using a person-centered, relational approach.

Being a young adult female in high school, college, or in the beginning of your career can be both an exciting and terrifying time. Whether it be anxiety, perfectionism, self-esteem struggles, issues adjusting to and balancing new schedules/demands, or just figuring out who you are and what feels right in this stage of life… I am here to help you sort it out and find healthy coping patterns that work for you.

Hearing from the heart and seeking help with paralyzing personal challenges can be a daunting experience. Finding someone to connect with in the process of personal healing is half the battle to a solution. Keeping the person at the center of the therapeutic process is a goal for me. I have employed this approach for over 16 years of practice in Western NC. While this majestic mountain setting is a place of unique beauty it is not free of personal challenges that may need a calm and skilled approach to navigating life' s challenges.

Hi there! I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate at Melissa Villodas Counseling and Consulting. Working with new parents, children and athletes is my passion. I have additional training in perinatal care and am working towards my Certification in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C). Supporting you through your time of transition, stress or discomfort and helping you move to a place of peace and growth is my goal.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Stressed? Trying to keep up with all the demands on you while working/living/parenting/doing/being during these times? Things feel hard. Being able to navigate rocky times is essential. I believe in the importance of being able to tell your story and for your story to be heard. My hope is to empower you to fully know yourself, your values, strengths, and aspirations and for you to feel more peace in your mind, body, and spirit.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 20+ years experience working with individuals and families. Issues addressed include trauma, anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, relationship issues, self-esteem, grief and old patterns of behavior that negatively affect my clients' well being. I believe it is important to provide a safe and supportive space for my clients to experience healing and personal growth.

www.lissafriedman.com - I like to help people find the deep knot of their pattern, gently lovingly untie it, and bring healing to the wound. I have been a therapist for about 30 years, and in private Practice since 1987. While my style is eclectic, it is my warmth, compassion, and acceptance that underlie all of my work. I try to provide an environment, much like a container, for my clients to open to their own natural self compassion and acceptance. Seeing each person as whole, rather than deficient provides an environment for people to come to a natural place of healing.

Welcome! You are not alone. It can be challenging to navigate life transitions while trying to discover and understand your true authentic self. Symptoms such as hopelessness, inadequacy, lack of motivation, and racing thoughts can complicate matters more. Many people have also experienced trauma, which can create further barriers to self-growth. You are so courageous for taking this first step toward healing and taking back control of your life. I will create space for you that feels warm, empathetic, non-judgmental, and safe to process your thoughts and feelings while learning new skills to help you cope.

Hey, thanks for checking out my listing. If you're struggling with difficult emotions related to your past or feeling stuck in old patterns and trying to manage these issues has only created more problems, help is here for you. If you can relate don't hesitate to reach out. I won’t pretend to know exactly how you're feeling, but as a healer and fellow traveler on the path of wellness, I understand these challenges in a unique way. Contact me for a free unhurried consultation.

When certain parts of our life feel outside of our control, it creates stress that impacts other parts of our life. Seeking help can feel like an additional stress. Not only do you have to find someone that you feel like is a good personality match, but you are expected to tell your story to someone you don’t know. That can be a hard thing to ask of someone.

Over the years, I have worked with individuals who experience challenges with symptoms related to anxiety, who have been experienced challenges in relationships, and those who are wanting to increase stress management skills. Some folks seeking support during times of transition and some folks are interested in focusing on a specific area of their relationship with their partner or their coworkers. Together, we can determine which goals to focus on and how to best achieve the desired outcomes.

The gift of therapy is that it is a safe place for self-exploration and self-expression. I believe in the possibility of healing and that individuals have answers within. Therapy is a tool that can help one find meaning. I enjoy taking this journey with my clients and it is my goal to support others in their growth and expansion. I aim to utilize the creativity and imagination of my clients so that they have a fulfilling experience. I am open to incorporating various traditions and spiritual philosophies. I have a background in health and wellness education and promotion which benefits my clients on their path to wellness.

Thank you for taking the time to seek counseling. That is a huge step to trigger the change you want in your current situation. Congratulations! As a psychotherapist, I strive to provide a comfortable and nonjudgmental environment where my clients feel heard. I utilize an eclectic approach,  using a variety of tools according to the situation that the client presents.

As a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist I am deeply committed to supporting individuals who are struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, body acceptance, or trauma. I know that full recovery is possible for many and that all are worthy of support whether they get "all better" or not. I am trained in EMDR, Internal Family Systems, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and Embodied Recovery for Eating Disorders.

I am an integrative therapist focused on healing the split associated with trauma. Trauma can disconnect you from your authenticity and power, creating a misalignment in your mind-body and spirit. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and the Inner Counselor are two highly effective approaches used for healing. I see clients with panic disorder and depression, sexual abuse, abusive relationships, codependency and self-esteem issues and more. Bringing health and balance back around areas that have become compulsions (eating, sex, alcohol, relationships, etc.) is another important part of this personal healing journey.

I am casual and tattooed, and that tends to work for most people... even if it's vastly different from how people picture a typical 'therapist'. I feel very privileged to work with members of the LGBTQ+ community and believe I offer a unique perspective as a trans man (that also happens to be a therapist). I really enjoy providing support to folks while they explore components of their authentic identities. I am comfortable working with folks that identify with being poly and/or kinky (No shaming here!).
