Codependency Therapists in Foxcroft, Charlotte, NC

Hello and welcome. Seeking therapy is a brave first step. Let me tell you a little about myself and my practice. I am dually licensed in both addiction and mental health. I have 11 years of experience working with individuals who are experiencing issues in their lives that are a result of: alcohol, drugs, and other compulsive behavior, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, self-esteem and self-worth, trauma and PTSD, abuse and neglect, mood and thought disorders, and codependency. My therapeutic practice is crafted to meet you where you are and to help guide, give a voice to, and empower you to heal yourself.

I have worked with individuals, couples, and families for over 25 years as they seek help for challenges that bring them to therapy. I have trained extensively in the treatment of anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, codependency, relationship issues, and trauma. Mindfulness is an integral part of my personal life and therapy practice. My intention is to be a compassionate and wise guide as my clients engage in the work needed to heal.

My ideal client is a person who is willing and ready to create profound change in their life. Through hypnosis, hypnotherapy techniques, and NLP, I assist clients with improving relationships, changing unwanted habits, weight loss, letting go of fears, phobias and anxious feelings, increasing their self-esteem, and helping them create a happy and fulfilling life. I am honored to help those who are ready to let go of unwanted beliefs and habits. Together, we will achieve lasting results that will improve your relationships, career, and other areas of your life.

I earned my masters in counseling from the University of New Orleans in 1987. I earned my masters in social work from the University of South Carolina in 1994. I have worked for over 12 years as a clinical therapist/professional counselor. My clinical and counseling experiences have been in a variety of settings to include private practice, mental health agencies, foster care, department of social services and community outreach. I have had the opportunity to work with children 11+, teens and adults. I believe that therapy has the ability to promote hope, growth and change.

I strive to meet people where they are and create a safe environment where people can process underlying trauma/life-challenge to support more alignment with their intuition/goals. Part of my work with people entails reframing/challenging negative self-talk, helping set realistic short-term goals to aid in accomplishing long-term ones, improving emotion regulation, and developing mindfulness skills. I am an ally in all forms and address people-problems regardless of labels. I enjoy helping LCAS-A, LCAS-R, CADC-A, CADC-R clinicians through virtual weekly supervision groups on Wednesdays at 12pm. Individual supervisions are available.

Life sure is complicated. And our nervous systems act up, making it difficult for us to function. Whether it's anxiety, depression, divorce, loss or other issue that you are going through, I use the most successful approaches to help you. I offer a comforting rapport that incorporates a no-nonsense and laid-back approach to help you maneuver life's challenges and come out the other end better for the experience.

Maybe you've been listening to podcasts, been in masterclasses, and reading self-help books thinking about your emotions so much that you haven't been feeling them. Maybe you feel as though you are experiencing your emotions "too much." Either way, if you could do this by yourself (whatever the "this" is for you), you would have done it by now! Being truly seen & understood can be profoundly healing, and this is foundational in the type of therapy that I work to provide. As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I offer resilience informed therapy as an overall approach to emotional wellness as well as an approach to trauma recovery.

Hello, my name is Ama Owusuaa, and I believe therapy is a collaborative effort. My approach is client-centered, based on the belief that every individual brings a unique outlook on personal, family and cultural experiences. In our sessions, we will explore different areas in your life that you feel may be causing you distress. We will look at the way your family/cultural history has impacted your values, behaviors, and relationships in a safe environment. My hope is that together, you will gain insight that will promote awareness and lead to a positive change

I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in North Carolina for over 25 years. I take seriously the trust that clients place in me when choosing to work with me in psychotherapy and as a result I create a safe, non-judgmental space where life's challenges can be examined and explored and where a sense of health and well being can be found or reestablished. My specialties include relationship/couples counseling, trauma resolution, and the integration of spirituality and psychotherapy using the spiritual framework of my clients.

If you think something is missing in your life, it is probably YOU -- Robert Holden.... I am passionate about helping my clients live a life they truly love. I believe therapy is a partnership; people have all the tools they need to thrive. My purpose is to be the catalyst for self discovery and healing. Together we can co-create the life you want!

Life is challenging at times. Maintaining healthy relationships may feel the like the greatest challenge of all! Our relationships are influenced by our childhood, family, & life experiences. Relationships take work! They can be overwhelming with the intensity of different emotions we experience, and sometimes this leads to make choices that can be unhealthy for us. Isolation, infidelity, & substance use hold us back from having a fulfilling relationship with ourselves & with others. Through exploring our challenges, accepting who we are in this moment, & leaning into the opportunity for growth we can Embrace all life has to offer!

Therapy is a healing and transformative process, and it takes courage to seek help with the issues often brought to counseling. I believe healing involves looking at the whole person, and it is important to me to provide a safe environment for my clients where they can explore their challenges without judgment, and share with honesty and openness. I work with children, adolescents, teens & adults who want to become their best selves! Many are seeking greater self-awareness & guidance on their path, & many struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, body image, relationships, family stress & life transitions.

I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor with over ten years of clinical experience. I am passionate about providing people with space to share their story, and I am always working to fine-tune my ability to fully hear and respond to that story. My ultimate goal as a counselor is to help people move toward insight, authenticity, and connectedness.

At The River Wellness LLC, we aim to help our clients move forward from their problems and reestablish their personal, professional, and social connections.

My practice focuses on supporting individuals who are dealing with transition, life evaluation, chronic illness, loss and change. I have had the privilege of working with individuals who are dealing with caring for both children and aging parents, caring for a spouse or loved one or grieving the loss of an individual or relationship. I have also found that families benefit from dialogue regarding changes in roles within the family system as members get older and more/less dependent. Additionally, some of my clients come to counseling to work through the age old question of "What am I doing with my life?".
