Therapists in West, Raleigh, NC

Limited availability for new clients at this time! My passion for helping others started early on and as a teenager I decided that I wanted to become a therapist so that I could make a difference in others’ lives. Today I have over 20 years of experience working with individuals of all ages from diverse backgrounds in a variety of therapeutic settings. Every individual is different, so I utilize an open-minded, eclectic approach to empower clients in finding their own path.

While it may have affected us all differently, the past two years have been like no other. They may have left you wishing for someone to talk to, or a quiet space of support. They also may have given you the time to reflect and recognize the changes you'd like to see in your life or the challenges from your past that you would like to face. In these times, it can be difficult to begin the process of healing, coping and processing, while trying to regain whatever sense of normalcy we can. It is my goal to aid and support you as you go through this journey, as I get to know you and the unique factors which bring you to counseling.

As a counselor, I work from a person-centered approach to therapy, partnering with you to meet you where you are, leverage individual strengths, and identify areas of growth and resilience. I enjoy working with people experiencing anxiety and panic disorders as well as depressive disorders. If you experience feelings of dread, difficulty sleeping, worries about health, your loved ones or yourself, lack of motivation or loss of interest in activities, therapy can be a place to process these concerns and develop ways to ease your symptoms.

Thank you for being here! I want to acknowledge that looking for help and for the appropriate therapist can be hard. You deserve a space where you feel safe, seen and heard. As a therapist, my intention is to partner with you and cultivate a safe space full of self-compassion and self-awareness. I am a bilingual (Spanish/English) and bicultural licensed clinical social worker. I work with people experiencing anxiety and depression symptoms and I also specialize in working with survivors of trauma: domestic violence, sexual violence, and racial trauma.

Eunoia (yoo-noy-uh) is ancient Greek and holds the meaning of “beautiful thinking” or “a well-balanced mind”. ​ Eunoia Counseling was founded to celebrate your beautiful and unique ways of thinking and to help you better understand yourself in the process of overcoming challenges and obstacles. Coming to therapy does not mean there is something wrong with you or you need to be “fixed” – it simply means, you would like to work toward becoming a better version of yourself.

Accepting New Clients! Are you a parent desperately seeking help for your child or teen from a Christian perspective? Maybe your child isn't who you once remember - now overwhelmingly anxious, depressed, stressed, affected by trauma or struggling in some other way. You might be wondering where God is in the struggle. You want back the person you know underneath that behavior, anxiety, depression, or trauma. You've tried and are out of options, but you know it's time for a change. You are ready to live as God intended: to smile again, to be lighter, less burdened...To live joyfully, healed, and renewed!

There are times in life where we all feel exposed, vulnerable, and unsure. Life can seem scary, frustrating, hopeless, and chaotic. We forget who we are or admit we don't know where we are going. Life experiences and our mindset can stop us from living. There are times when emotions run the show and lead to choices that make things worse.

Everyone needs some moments to be heard without judgement. I believe therapy can offer that unconditional space for people. All we need to do is to invest time and effort to come to the space to explore the stories inside of us. Nothing is wrong and everything teaches us something. I am here to witness the process and support self-determination within a safe space where the client and I build together. I take insight oriented indirective approach to help clients to find connections to themselves.

Hello! My name is Lillian and I am a Mental Health Counselor. I am passionate about supporting others’ healing, growth, and development. By creating a safe environment conducive for self-reflecting and self exploration, and with the guidance of a counselor providing unconditional positive regard and acceptance, one can reach the hidden parts of oneself, thus allowing for healing, change, and growth. Ultimately progressing towards self-awareness, self-acceptance and self-love. I work with adolescents, young adults, older adults and families to improve communications and strengthen relationships.

I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist with extensive experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I am also an assistant professor of Marriage and Family Therapy and a clinical supervisor. I have been able to help many couples and families acquire the necessary skills needed to cope with very real relational problems (e.g., communication issues, infidelity, and power dynamics). I also help individuals from multiple cultural and ethnic backgrounds struggling with anxiety, depression, acculturation, and discrimination/oppression issues. I am committed to offering you a safe space where you can grow.

In today's society, there's a lot of conflicting information out there, which might leave you feeling confused or even frustrated. Do I have trauma? Am I doomed to diet forever? Why am I so anxious? Is healing even possible? Does anyone even care about me? What the hell does it all mean?! Well, that's where therapy comes in. As your therapist, I provide space to sort through all of your questions and concerns, beyond just a diagnosis. We might look at your past and the present, in order to provide clarity for the future.

Are you tired of feeling stuck? Are you ready to take control of your life? Let me work collaboratively with you to help you find answers, peace, and break free from what is holding you back. I strive to create a welcoming and safe place for my clients where you can come where and how you are, and I will meet you there. I also work to create a non-judgmental environment where clients can feel heard, validated, and can be vulnerable. I aim to create a positive, client-centered, holistic, and collaborative client-therapist relationship providing a climate where it is my goal to model and create a healthy relationship dynamic.

Are you feeling sad or down, confused, having difficulty concentrating or experiencing worry or guilt? Maybe you’re tired, not wanting to be around friends or enjoy your usual activities…. Whatever the case may be, you’ve come to the right place where we can collaborate to pinpoint the root causes of your difficulties and help you find a sense of peace.

In this ever-changing and evolving world, we are all feeling some confusion, perhaps isolation, and a little anxiety in our lives. I see this in my clients’ lives and in my own. Therefore, I am dedicated to working with adults and teens in individual and couples counseling because I can empathize and help people learn new tools to live a healthier, more joyous life. Trauma, relationships, and even family can sometimes negatively affect us. I strive to empower people to become unstuck and move forward with more positivity and strategies to make great changes for themselves.

As a psychotherapist I specialize in helping individuals who are interested in learning and growing in self-awareness and confidence. I work well with people who are exploring patterns of substance use, intimate relationships, performance anxieties, lack of confidence/satisfaction, major life transitions (job/school changes/relational/grief). I am a relationally and present moment-based therapist. This means we will work from a framework that everything (past/present/future) can be addressed by exploring the relationship you have with it in "right now". My role is to help guide you on your path of wellness.

I believe that we have all experienced challenging situations or have felt lost at some point in our lives. Taking the leap to seek additional guidance and support takes courage and vulnerability and I believe it cultivates our growth and well-being. Together we collaborate to examine thoughts, emotions and behaviors and identify new tools and solutions that will move you toward a place of worthiness, purpose and authenticity to meet your personalized goals. With over 14 years of experience, I specialize in treating adults who have concerns regarding anxiety, depression, relationships, life transitions, trauma, and women's issues.

Are you seeking a deeper understanding of self? Are you feeling overwhelmed or burnt out? Do you have a hard time feeling grounded or saying no? I am passionate about holding a healing space for highly sensitive, people-pleasers to find confidence & inner peace. Through exploring your past and building a deeper mind-body connection we can overcome self-doubt, patterned relationship issues, anxiety and the pressure to overachieve. If interested, we can also use tarot, symbolism and dream work to deepen our understanding & intuition. I would feel an immense amount of gratitude to walk alongside you & support you through this journey.
