UnitedHealthcare UHC | UBH Therapists in North, Raleigh, NC

Motherhood can be challenging and adjusting to your new life can be harder than expected. Whether you're facing the aftermath of a traumatic birth experience, struggling with the challenges of postpartum depression, or navigating the complexities of parenthood, I am committed to walking alongside you every step of the way. Struggling with infertility can be a deeply emotional and isolating experience. Whether you're facing difficulties conceiving, undergoing fertility treatments, or coping with pregnancy loss, know that you're not alone.

I feel that it is important that each individual find a path to wellness that is comfortable for themselves, as all of our journeys are unique. Life brings challenges and roadblocks which at times require us to seek outside supports. I strive to provide a safe and caring environment for individuals to explore life's difficulties, and receive the respect we all deserve.

I believe the best aspect about therapy is the ability to create a meaningful therapeutic relationship with another built on trust and open honesty. Further, clients are able to be their authentic selves during that time without fear of judgment or stigma. A therapist can notice values or beliefs that have not been seen, and challenge one to grow beyond measure. In therapy and the time together, it is the moment when you can work to feel more control of your lives, thoughts, and feelings. It’s the moment where you can give yourself permission to do what is best for you. In therapy it is your time breakout and break through.

Ava is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) who works with a wide range of age groups; however, she has a passion for children and adolescents with issues such as anxiety, depression, and ASD. Having a child with autism sparked a passion for those individuals and families who face the challenges and struggles associated with a childhood disorder. Ava embraces the position that every individual can develop the skills to have a healthy and fulfilling life.

I believe in working in partnership with clients to utilize their strengths to help them sort out their challenges and achieve their goals. One of my specialties is providing a safe and interactive environment to tackle difficult traumas. My style is active and engaging within a safe and judgment-free space to encourage healing conversations and positive change.

Reaching out to seek therapy says something positive about you! It reflects that you recognize the need to ask for help, which is always the first step and sometimes, the hardest step. It also means you are coming into therapy with an open mindset and are willing to do the work necessary to achieve your goals. I am passionate about developing a healthy, trusting relationship with my clients, so we can begin to work on whatever issues you are facing. I specialize in treating issues related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem, grief, and career counseling.

Everything you need to improve and transform your life you already possess inside of you. My job as your therapist is to empower you to use your strengths to achieve your goals and change your life.

I want to be more than just your therapist—I want to be a trusted partner on your path to healing and self-discovery. Life can throw some incredibly challenging curveballs our way, and I'm here to offer you the specialized care and unwavering support you deserve. I'm deeply committed to participating in your journey, and it's an honor for me. You don't have to face life's challenges alone because I'm here to provide you with the specialized care to navigate the complexities of life to ensure you emerge from it with increased strength and confidence.

I recognize that everyone’s path is unique, and that healing is a deeply personal experience.

I provide psychotherapy to adult individuals and couples who are seeking support due to life's challenges. I specialize in mental health, addiction and family dynamics. I believe in creating an atmosphere of safety and non-judgement allowing you to achieve your goals.

My areas of work include, but are not limited to, those experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, mood disorders, personality disorders, relationship issues, communication issues, bullying, low self-esteem, self-criticism, impulsivity, self-harm, addiction, and substance use disorders.

Have you recently experienced a life changing event such as a relationship ending, the loss of a job, or ongoing problems within relationships? Do you set goals and still feel unaccomplished? Does the uncertainty of your future keep you up at night? These events alongside many others can bring stress to the mind and body and disrupt your life in many ways.

Guaranteed response in 2 business days- Are you feeling like you are successful, functional, and efficient but still struggling with feeling completely satisfied and fulfilled? You may be confused because you have so many things to be grateful for and to be happy about. Maybe you're on the fence about even needing therapy or professional help because you know people who have been to therapy and you're different than them. Allow me to tell you something you probably already know in the back of your head (because you're here): everyone can benefit from therapy and some non-judgmental support.

Finding a therapist can feel overwhelming. The hardest step is just showing up, and you have already accomplished that! Everyone has different needs and goals - and there is no "one size fits all" approach to therapy. As such, the techniques that I use differ from client to client. We can work collaboratively to address your individual needs and goals! Some of my focus areas include Anxiety, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Intergenerational Trauma, Narcissistic Abuse Recovery, Family Trauma, Career Counseling and Stress Management.

My name is LeShana Moore, a Licensed Clinical Social Work Associate. I obtained a Master’s Degree from North Carolina Central University and a Bachelor’s Degree from East Carolina University. My academic background and professional experiences demonstrate a long-standing commitment to public service and helping others in their time of vulnerability.

My name is Jenny Bates, and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with over 22 years of clinical experience working with Individuals, Couples, Families, and Minors who are experiencing ADHD, Anxiety, Grief, Stress, and Relationship Issues. I use a mix of Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Eclectic, Family Systems, and Person-Centered therapies during treatments with my clients. I believe that successful therapy will require the client to play an active role both during and between sessions to practice new skills and learn ways to strengthen them.

I specialize in supporting individuals, families, or couples at each stage of life: families and teens preparing for college; adults contemplating career change; couples planning to marry or experiencing relationship difficulties; and women and men adjusting to aging, retirement, or conflicts with adult children. For 20 years, I worked as a clinical social worker and then completed my Ph.D. in psychology at mid-life. Originally from Nebraska and Colorado, I have lived in Indiana, Oregon, LA and now in Raleigh for 30 years. I've helped people from all walks of life, including diverse ethnic, racial and spiritual backgrounds.

My passion is helping child and adolescent victims of abuse and neglect heal emotionally and break free of invisible scars that are holding them back from feeling empowered and leading their best life. I work with caregivers and family who are inevitably touched by these painful experiences to help them help their loved one and improve their own emotional wellbeing. I also provide a compassionate, non-judgmental safe place for adults with unresolved trauma, past or present, to collaboratively work through issues and learn to process thoughts in healthier more adaptive ways, pursue goals and thrive rather than just survive.
