Career Counseling Therapists in Charlotte, NC

Life doesn't get better by chance, it get's better by CHOICE and CHANGE! As an Integrative Wellness & Life Coach, I believe you have the power to change your life! I partner with you as a guide and accountability partner as you do the work to heal yourself. I support clients in healing core issues and negative patterns while empowering them to change their life with effective tools, techniques, and specific action plans. Successful clients gain freedom from the past and overcome habits and patterns that block fulfillment in all areas of their lives. Let's get to work!

My goal is to create a safe space within the context of a counseling relationship to help individuals come to a greater understanding of self, as well as to navigate difficulties of relationships, traumatic life events, and current sources of stress or difficulty. I take a holistic approach to help clients reach a greater place of healing, wholeness, and competency to face challenges in the present and future. I work with adults, adolescents, and couples. I have a particular interest in helping adolescents and young adults navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, career exploration, and life transition.

At times, life can be challenging, frustrating, and complex. As we head into our "new normal," you may notice you are experiencing fear, worry, or angst. Or perhaps you may experience being overwhelmed with feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or despair? You may often feel down and unmotivated, making it challenging to get through your day? If you are experiencing these difficulties, as you return to work at the office, in-person learning, have challenges identifying a more satisfying career , or lack the confidence to obtain a new role at work, I want to help you to the other side of your journey!

Note: I can provide telehealth counseling. Even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems and most of us have battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you are struggling with grief, anger, depression, mismanagement, I am here to help as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I specifically specialize in women issues, Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) and issues that challenge young adults.

Life doesn’t always go as planned, and let’s face it, it can be hard. My goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental place for you to explore ways to cope, adapt to change, challenge yourself, and work through emotional, career and personal difficulties. My hope is for each client to gain a sense of empowerment, learn their abilities and work together to create a unique, individual plan for their personal success.

The truth is we all deserve to live life in a mentally healthy space and I'm here to provide you with the support and resources that will help you start your transformational journey to healing. Life is ever-changing, overwhelming, and challenging at times, but through therapy, you can develop the right tools to improve your mental wellness. We all experience seasons where it feels impossible to manage, but you're not alone. The challenges life throws at us can leave us feeling hurt, disappointed, lost, fearful and unable to see a way through. Wherever you are, I will meet you there.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, making a life transition, experiencing loss or feeling stuck, it requires looking at your whole self! I have over 30 years of experience ranging from working in hospice and bereavement care to assisting older adults and their families as a Geriatric Care Manager, as well as being a Certified Integrative Health Coach from Duke Integrative Medicine and doing Integrative Psychotherapy. I will skillfully help you become your true and best self with the necessary tools to build a healthy, meaningful life, not in spite of, but because of, any challenges you face.

Perhaps you have hit a rough patch in your life, your health, your career , or your relationship and you see no way forward. Maybe you just want to be happy, less stressed, or break out of your comfort zone and explore your potential. I understand that it can be hard to find your way in difficult times. Everyday I help my clients face these challenges and live their best life. I can help you too. Welcome. I am happy you are here.

I understand that it can be difficult to take the first step towards counseling. I’m here to help with what you are experiencing, and I welcome the opportunity to assist you with your needs. In my work, I strive authentically to help my clients to achieve their goals. I accept you where you are nonjudgmentally, work with you to identify practical strategies to overcome struggles you are encountering, and help you to gather tools needed to thrive in life. I’m happy to serve as a safe place to assist you in getting to the places where you’d like to go.

I am a seasoned, licensed clinical social worker and I received my master's degree for the University of Michigan. My experience includes working with people dealing with anxiety, depression, divorce, life changes, caretaker fatigue, grief, domestic violence, self-esteem concerns, and career challenges. My areas of specialty include utilizing strength-based, cognitive-behavioral, and solution focus therapy. It takes courage to seek a happier and more fulfilling life by taking the first steps toward change. Are you ready? I'm here to support and empower you.

I work with clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety, a wide range of relationship issues (including marital, pre-marital, divorce and singleness), chronic illness, grief and also offer career assessment and counseling. I combine a practical, problem solving approach with a focus on the client's emotional and family history to facilitate greater insight for the client as we collaborate to bring balance and wholeness to that client's life. In my many years of practice, I have been on staff at a university counseling center, a large private practice and currently am with a ministry-based counseling center.

My practice includes work with families, couples, and individuals ages 3 and older. My office is small and I work part-time because I also teach at colleges in Charlotte and surrounding areas. My clients have told me they feel very comfortable working with me and they appreciate my direct and results-oriented approach. Although I assist my clients with a wide variety of problems and challenges, my specialties include play therapy, trauma, and work/life issues. I love my job and I am always happy to help!

Life has a way of catching up to us when we least expect it. Life transition occurs regardless of what is happening in your life. When transitions occur, you may experience one or more changes in your relationships, family, health, home, career , or spirituality. As a result of life transition, adjusting to life can become difficult and unmanageable to navigate alone. When life changes become difficult to manage, speaking to a therapist can significantly affect your outlook on life.

I am a Doctoral Licensed Clinical Psychologist offering psychological services as well as education and career consulting. I have a diverse background of experience helping individuals, couples, and families with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, relationship difficulties, divorce, workplace challenges, and autism spectrum disorder live more productive and fulfilling lives. I also offer parent coaching and divorce coaching when someone is contemplating entering the divorce process or has been through the litigation process. In addition to being a therapist, I am also a Certified Autism Specialtist.

Overcoming mental and emotional challenges can be difficult, but even more when you feel like you are dealing with them alone. It's not always easy finding someone who's willing to listen and understands from a culturally responsive lens, especially when discussing personal challenges that have been discouraged outside of the home. Stress can come from many different avenues of life ( career , family, relationships, society, and culture, etc) and can bring about depressions, anxiety, anger, isolation, and low-self esteem. It's not easy learning healthy ways to cope, managing your symptoms, and even recognizing that there's a problem.

Are you stressed? Overwhelmed? Anxious? Down? Scattered? Stuck in your own head? Do you want: Life to get better? To feel better? To know what you want and how to get there? To wake up excited to go to work, feeling alive, useful, and engaged? To be healthier, physically and mentally? Have you experienced a loss? Are you still reeling? Grief-stricken? Unsure how to move on?

Dr. Medlock is accepting coaching clients. My goal, as a coach, is to help you move from where you are to where you want to be, helping you get unstuck and change perceptions, habits and behaviors to move forward. My clients seek coaching at a point in their lives where they are asking questions...Why am I not my best self or happy in my life? Why can't I seem to reach my goals? Why can't I figure out what I want? These questions begin a path to change. I use a strengths-based and positive psychology approach to work with adolescent and adult clients in life and career transitions and those straggling with ADHD/ADD/EF issues.

I am Jeanette Jones, Certified Life Coach with a Master’s Degree in Community Counseling and a Life Coach Certification from Life Purpose Institute in San Diego, CA. I have over 13-years of experience working in the field of Mental Health.

Currently taking new clients. Are you feeling overworked? Burnt out? Exhausted? I work with folks who are struggling with issues like career change, anxiety, overcontrol, relationship issues, and perfectionism. Together, we can rekindle passion in your everyday life. My hope for you is that when you learn to live authentically, you can find relief, rest, and joy again.
