Female Therapists in Raleigh, NC
As a therapist, I strive to create a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and respected. My approach is grounded in authenticity, warmth, and validation because healing begins when we feel safe enough to show up as our full selves. I also see humor as a powerful tool in therapy, helping to make the process feel more human and accessible. While I’ve worked with people across the lifespan, I’m especially passionate about supporting pre-teens/teens, LGBTQ+ individuals, and those looking to build healthier boundaries and communicate their needs with confidence. Communication is my jam, and I love helping clients find their voice!

Maybe you're struggling with exhaustion, or feeling short-tempered, or even disconnected from what used to bring you joy. I specialize in mindfulness, anxiety, mood, attention, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, life changes and relationship issues.

Hi, I’m Emery Hanson. I recently graduated from NC State University with a Masters in Social Work. I also graduated from the University of North Florida in 2020 Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelors in Psychology. I believe in creating a nonjudgmental space where I accept clients where they are and provide space for them to express themselves. My experience with children has led me to want to work with them clinically; however, I am also open to working with teenagers and young adults.

Are you struggling with anxiety, burnout, injury, self-esteem, or life/career transitions? You are not alone! My speciality is working with performance-based populations: military, athletes, and performers. The pressure to maintain peak physical and mental readiness to achieve high levels of success, whether through operational missions, winning competitions, or delivering flawless performances can lead to emotional distress. These mental health struggles are often compounded by a culture that prioritizes physical achievements over mental health, making it difficult for these populations to seek help.
