Therapists in Charlotte, NC

Helping men is the primary focus of my practice, and I also see couples. Anxiety, Relationships, Sexual Issues, Depression, Young Adults, Motivation/Focus, Social Anxiety, Assertiveness, Anger, Infidelity, Porn/Sexual/Gaming Addictions, and Career are concerns I often address. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Gottman Method (for relationships), and other relevant skills to help you enact change. This is a space to talk freely without judgment, with a Doctoral-Level Therapist who's helped navigate the challenges we face, sometimes uniquely as men, for almost two decades.

We're all on a long, strange trip through life. I'm honored to help you make sense of it. I work with couples and adults navigating the challenges of life and death. For couples, I use the Gottman Method and attachment theory to address relationship difficulty. I understand the challenges of an ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) partnership. With individuals, I generally take a transpersonal or holistic approach, with special emphasis on spirituality. I'm an interfaith minister and death dula, trained to be spiritually relevent in a diverse community.

I offer counseling for PTSD, childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, OCD and relationship difficulties. If you struggle with PTSD because of the past traumas, I will gently help you decrease distress by processing and making sense of traumatic events and equipping you to respond rather than react in triggering situations. If you need counseling for anxiety and depression, we will work on skills to regulate your emotions, bring your anxiety to a healthy level, and help you experience joy, purpose and connection with others. If you seek counseling for OCD, I can help you tolerate uncertainty and fears to improve your quality of life.

We are a group of counselors who are dedicated to the well-being of our clients as we practice professional counseling from a Christian perspective. Whether it's anxiety, depression, trauma, losing a loved one, challenges at work, having hard time parenting your children or dissatisfaction in your marriage - we provide a safe place for you to come individually, as a family, or as a couple to explore the issues you might be experiencing, gain new perspective, and work on overcoming your difficulties. While taking an integrative approach to therapy, we welcome all people who seek counseling, regardless of religious background.

We care about you and your ability to thrive! JCCC is a proud believer in positive psychology and the ability to work past all of life’s curveballs. Be it early childhood development years or difficulty navigating marital issues, we employ unique and fun mental health-based therapies for an explorative approach towards healing. We utilize different techniques such as Play Therapy, Equine-Facilitated Psychotherapy (horses), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and much more! Our creative approach to therapy is a unique way to assist many clients with overcoming various challenges in their lives.

Are you struggling in your relationship? Feeling like things just aren't clicking the way they used to? It's tough when you're holding on by a thread, trying to meet everyone's needs while feeling like yours are being overlooked. Maybe you're wondering if it's normal to feel this way, or if there's something more you could be doing. You're not alone. Many couples find themselves in this situation, where it seems like no matter how hard they try, they can't seem to communicate effectively or meet each other's needs. But there is hope.

There are times in life when our struggles seem unbearable and overwhelming to deal with on our own. Therapy can be a wonderful resource to help unpack those heavy emotions and navigate the difficult times. As a trained therapist, I am here to guide and support you through those difficult times. My goal is to help you gain insight and a new perspective to your current circumstances, as well as help create effective coping skills. I am committed to providing a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to become the best version of themselves.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, I specialize in working with pre-marital couples, distressed couples, and individuals (21+). My experience includes counseling pre-marital couples, conflicted couples, trauma survivors, divorce care, women grieving betrayals, anxiety, panic attacks, grief, and adjustment after life-altering accidents and medical conditions.

Life is full of transitions and challenges that can lead to depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and family problems. You may feel frustrated, anxious, and disappointed leading to your desire to seek help. I believe everyone needs a person that supports, advocates, and listens to them. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I strive to build a space of acceptance to promote your growth and honor your strengths. I believe everyone has their own unique experiences and therefore, I adapt my approach to fit your needs and goals.

My therapy approach is very collaborative. I believe you are the expert of your life and I will work with you to achieve your goals. Research clearly indicates that having a good relationship between the therapist and client is crucial for positive outcomes to occur. I am compassionate, an empathetic listener, and I strive to create a space that feels comfortable for you to express yourself. In a safe environment, together we will explore, process, and learn what can be done differently in order to achieve greater satisfaction and peace.

Life doesn't always go how we think it should. We face difficulties - maybe with a spouse or co-worker, maybe within ourselves. I strive to create a safe and warm place to help you though challenges, such as anxiety, anger management, grief, depression, communication skills, low self-esteem, life transition, relationship issues, and spiritual/religious questions. Having been married for 15 years, I enjoy helping married couples to find a healthy relationship. Combining compassion and directness, I work with you to explore the difficulties and change them. I enjoy integrating Christian faith and counseling, if desired by the client.

Major life transitions, communication issues, unmet emotional needs, addiction, infidelity, and relationship neglect can all produce a sense of disconnection. We help couples work through these and other issues in a way that builds trust and closeness.

Life and love can be messy. Our 24/7 world can make otherwise successful people get out of balance in their lives and in their relationships. The good news is: quality, research-based counseling works for couples and individuals. Together, we can help you and/or your relationship feel better.

Life is not always easy. Sometimes life is challenging because of circumstances related to our actions; sometimes these challenges are a result of circumstances beyond our control. Regardless, these circumstances do not define us. It is, instead, our response to these circumstances that determines our course. My passion is working with individuals and families who are facing these storms. I love walking with my clients through these storms and into a bright new day. It is my hope that each of my clients will learn not just to weather and survive these storms but rather to conquer and overcome them.

We serve clients virtually in NC & SC.

Hi! My name is Donisa and I help couples and individuals heal after trauma and betrayal. As specialists in affair recovery and couples trauma, we have the tools you need to get your relationship where you desire it to be! Through the use of Gottman Method Couples Therapy, we have the evidenced-based practices to rebuild the foundation of your relationship. There is no shame, only hope, and healing - for whichever path you choose!

I’m guided by my belief in the eternal worth and inherent wisdom of each person. Each individual is the expert of their own experience, and, within each of us, lies an immense power for self-healing. My therapeutic style can be described as warm, collaborative, and experiential. I view my role in this process as a facilitator, working alongside individuals as they reflect upon their experiences, broaden their awareness, and investigate ongoing behavioral patterns. Together, we may begin to freely explore prevailing paradigms and construct a more personalized path forward.

You are the only expert of your own life, but sometimes we need a little help. My perspective is that I'm the GPS and you're the driver- you know where you are isn't where you want to be and I am there to guide you and re-route as needed. I have worked with a wide range of clients with a focus on military members and dependents, life stressors, trauma (combat and otherwise), marital distress, depression, anxiety, and domestic violence. I am LGBT+, kink, and sex work friendly. I believe that it takes courage to come to therapy and you deserve authenticity and a space where you can address your concerns without fear of being judged.
