Therapists in Alamance County, NC

Parenting has been challenging for a while now. Your child has become defiant, disrespectful, and seems to have anger outbursts most days of the week. You’ve read countless self-help tips on managing your child’s behavior- time outs, rewards, punishments, spankings. These things worked for a couple of weeks, but there have been no long-term results from any of them. You always end up back at square one. Although, you don’t want to admit it, you’ve begun to dislike your child. You feel desperate for a change in your child’s behavior. You also feel hopeless that a change is possible. Is this what parenting is supposed to be like?

You’re a guy. You’ve known you needed help but you’ve been handling it. But something has changed and it's too much. Your wife/girlfriend and family are upset with you. You get things done at work but you’re overwhelmed with life. You worry all the time and are overcome with sadness. The fear of losing everything and being alone is too much for you. Your anger about situations comes out without your permission. Your wife says you are a good husband but the voice in your head says otherwise. It’s time to do something about it.

Are you feeling lost or struggling to navigate the stressful events happening in your life and in the world around you? Or feeling overwhelmed as you try to balance work and home responsibilities? Do you find yourself feeling anxious about your choices and your future or feeling overwhelmed when you evaluate where you are and where you would like to be on your journey? Or maybe you are experiencing grief due to the loss of a loved one, or grief that can accompany life's transitions.

We all strive to find our way in a difficult world. Yet many people find themselves feeling alone and misunderstood. I specialize in helping people with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and legal issues. I work primarily with adults and adolescents and am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor.

My mission is to empower my clients to navigate their lives in a new way which brings joy. Through therapeutic work, I strive to bring clarity and awareness to patterns of thought which prevent healthy and happy living, and redirect ineffective thought patterns into productive solutions.

Hello! I am so glad that you are here, the fact that you are here means you are choosing to make positive changes to your mental health! You deserve to feel heard, cared for and to know that no matter what you are working through or towards, you are enough! I have always had a desire to help others and am excited to work with you!

You want to make changes in your world, but you feel overwhelmed. Feelings of stress and anxiety leave you unsure of where to even start. You would like to talk to someone, but you are afraid of being misunderstood and judged. The loneliness from not being able to open up about what is happening just creates more helplessness, confusion, and pain.

I have worked as a mental health counselor for the past twenty five years in a variety of settings. My experience includes counseling persons who have experienced anxiety, depression and trauma. Over my career, I have been fortunate to have acquired many skills and experiences which I refer to as my "tool box". I believe that no single theory or approach has the "answers" to effectively treat and help you with the problems that you hope to address in counseling. My belief is that you have the answers to your problems, and we can work together to find healthy solutions. I also provide supervision services for LPCA's.

Welcome! Here at Elon Psychological & Wellness Services, PLLC, I realize that no two people are the same, and I tailor our therapy to meet your specific needs as an individual. I love helping people understand the things that are holding them back with an in-depth approach. After recognizing underlying problems, clients can fully realize their strengths and adjust certain behaviors and thoughts to see things in a different, healthier way.

Are you feeling stressed, strained, drained, or anxious? Are you finding yourself overworked, sleepless, with no one to talk to or process with? Sure, you have friends, but it’s hard to imagine dumping everything you are feeling on them, so you hold it in. You might not even know what you are feeling, so how can you explain it to them? You are trying so hard, but nothing is working, and you are losing motivation. On top of everything else, you feel like you are losing interest in the things that used to matter to you.

Have you ever made a choice and immediately asked yourself: "Why in the world did I do that?" Imagine if you had talked with someone you trusted before you made that choice. What a difference some compassion and understanding can make. Lighten your burden with someone to walk with you through your difficult life choices. Whether you're wrestling with a work-related challenge or a situation in your intimate relationship, I can offer you a safe space, a ready ear, and help with the choices you're trying to make. Feel heard, understood, and confident in your decisions. That's what therapy offers.

Does life feel heavy right now? Are you feeling overwhelmed or struggling with taking the slightest step forward? Stress can seem unrelenting and never ending. Trauma can seem staggering and unbearable. Whatever the challenges -great or small- if life has you feeling anxious, depressed, stressed, stuck, or shattered; and you are looking to grow, gain clarity and clear footing, or just to maintain your overall mental well-being, ICARE is a great place to start your journey.

Accepting new virtual clients! My name is Mirrah and I am a therapist and mindset coach. I became a therapist to put happiness and positivity back into the world by guiding individuals to find their light and inspire others to do the same. I work with clients who experience depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, and self-image issues. I specialize in working with athletes and have worked with individuals across the lifespan (16-65+ years old). I help clients identify the origin of their dysfunctional behavior, heal from their past trauma, find their voice, and unashamedly live as their true self.

Everyone’s path to healing is unique, and I’m here to support you on your healing journey. Reaching out to begin therapy can be a difficult first step, but you are deserving of healing! I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up unapologetically. Culturally sensitive care is at the forefront of my work, and I enjoy connecting with communities of color and those who hold marginalized identities. I work with many individuals who are seeking therapy for the first time. Welcome!

Struggling with anxiety, depression, racing thoughts, disrputed sleep, grief, career choices, and relationship strain make life tiring. It doesn't have to be this way. There are many tools you can learn to ease the struggle and find greater joy in your everyday living. Men often hesitate to seek help given how we are socialized to 'be strong' and 'not show emotion.' In fact, men who DO seek objective help tend to benefit greatly from an experience unlike most in male friendship circles.
