Therapists in Burlington, NC

I believe that we are all capable of growth and healing. We sometimes just need some extra help and support along the way, as I do not believe we are supposed to go through life alone. That is where I come in. I walk alongside you as you uncover, discover, and explore areas in need of healing, growth, or change. I will utilize your own personal strengths to help you set, pursue, and accomplish goals. You and I will, collaboratively, come up with strategies that best suit your life and situations and I will be there to support and encourage you as you navigate through what life may bring.

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.

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my page! As a counselor, I believe that everyone has had unique experiences that have had a direct impact on them as individuals. I truly enjoy helping others learn to navigate through problems they may be experiencing, which prevent them from functioning in a healthy manner. I offer a holistic therapeutic approach designed to help individuals and families explore and find new solutions to issues they may be experiencing. Please contact me with any questions you may have or to schedule an appointment. Thanks!

Are you tired of feeling depressed, anxious, or overwhelmed? I am here to support you along your journey towards change and healing. I will actively work with you to create goals toward improved relationships, emotions, and behaviors. I believe that you are the expert in your own life, but sometimes we need extra support to foster change. As a therapist, I strive to be culturally sensitive and provide you with a safe environment that allows you to work towards an improved self. I primarily work from a cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness-based approach, while also incorporating other techniques like play therapy and brainspotting.

Being stressed may feel normal, but it doesn't have to continue. Your days are full, you are tired, and taking care of yourself comes in last place on your to-do list. From the outside looking in you appear driven, responsible, and confident, but it never feels like enough. The things you are pouring yourself into don't feel as fulfilling as they once did. You feel accomplished, yet empty; successful, but waiting for the other shoe to drop. You've worked hard to build your life, but you know you want to, and need to, make a change.

Sometimes things in life are difficult to understand and navigate. Are you experiencing overwhelm and stress? I would like to work with you to reach your goals, find healthy coping skills, and live a positive life. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 16 years of experience, and work with teens (13 and older) and adults with general mental health concerns, life stress, grief, depression, anxiety, and trauma. I have extensive experience in vocational counseling and provide support for career changes as well.

Stress, anxiety and other difficult emotions may be a normal part of life, but they don't have to be in the driver's seat on life's journey. Through my 25+ years of experience as a counselor and my personal experience of having to reclaim the driver's seat from debilitating anxiety/depression, I have learned the truth behind Marcel Proust's claim that "The voyage of discovery is not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes". It is my goal to help people gain new "eyes" through which to view current or past experiences.

When I think of counseling, I envision all kinds of people who need all different kinds of support. I strive to be able to provide as many kinds of support as needed for my clients. People might want to explore their past, develop coping skills, learn how to respond to a certain life issue, find a listening ear, or have any other goal that will help them live their best life. My goal as a counselor is to help as many people as I can by promoting their wellness, in whatever way that looks like for that person, in a culturally responsive manner.

Life can be challenging, and at some point, filled with obstacles, it can be challenging to adjust. The therapeutic environment that we build together will provide a safe and non-judgmental place for you to explore ways to cope, adapt to change, challenge yourself, and work through emotional difficulties. I believe in incorporating each person's unique experience and embracing individual identity to promote self-growth through guided discovery and acceptance. Using a variety of techniques tailored to my clients' specific needs, ultimately, I hope for each client to graduate from therapy feeling empowered and autonomous.

Something feels off. Something in life just is not working. You feel defeated. Despite numerous successes or reasons you feel you should be happy, you are overcome with sadness, guilt, and shame. You find yourself uncomfortable in your own skin, leading you to avoid everyday life, or overindulging in drugs or alcohol to cope. You feel trapped, and unsure how to fix it. When you make the decision to seek help, it can be an intimidating and overwhelming step to take. As a therapist, I strive to create a space that is safe for clients to be themselves and realize their personal vision for change.

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!

Therapy can often feel like unfamiliar territory even when we know we need help. I provide a calm, safe, judgment-free zone. I meet the client where they are. I believe that what we think and feel can affect our everyday lives. In addition to that, our physical and spiritual wellbeing can also affect our mental health. Whether this is your first time in therapy or you’re familiar with the process, I’m here to take that leap of faith with you!

I am confident in the idea that, as individuals, we are all capable of the growing and healing process that leads us to a free mind. My main goal as a therapist is to begin exploring the problems which brought you to therapy, and then collaborating together in developing strategies and setting specific goals in which you would like to target. My ideal clients are adolescents and young adults who are having trouble expressing themselves, showing signs of low self- esteem, and/or are struggling with anxiety/depression. For adolescent clients, family involvement in the counseling process is required.
