Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Raleigh, NC

Children, teens and parents can all benefit from taking a step away from the chaos and spending some time listening to the help what their bodies are asking for. Through tactile sessions such as painting and sand, calming music and a lot of plants, let's work on what is causing the anger, why we are self-harming, what is the root of the family fights. Parents, let's find something different to do because yelling and crying does not feel good and it does not work. Come as you are, and you will be welcomed. I embrace all with a warm heart, an open ear, and with hot chocolate :)

I am pleased to announce the release of my new book, "Affirmative Parenting." It is available as an ebook and paperback version on Amazon. My goal is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental, positive environment where thoughts, feelings, and behaviors can be explored and understood. I want to help people achieve problem resolution through personal and emotional growth. I have used this approach in a variety of mental health settings and, presently, in my private practice. Please visit my website for more details at www.drdalesheffield.com. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.

Historically, I have worked mostly with adolescents confronting issues with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation , and self-esteem, while in an outpatient setting. However, I have also worked with adults ranging from 21-60+ dealing with substance use issues. As a school counselor, I’ve worked with elementary aged children, dealing with a range of issues. I am confident in my ability to serve each of the listed populations. If you or your child have goals to become the best version of yourself, learn to confront ongoing mental health struggles, and desire to learn to live at your best “post”-pandemic, please reach out to me.

My passion is to support those in their healing journey with depression, anxiety and many other forms of mental health needs. Creating a safe, honest and open environment for all people to explore their treatment needs. I believe that every person has the ability to become adaptable, resilient and confident in their ability to tackle life challenges and be the best version of themselves. My approach with clients can be interactive and finding creative ways for individuals to feel confident in their ability to take charge in their treatment with their mental illnesses.

As a therapist and fellow “in-progress” human I believe that we are all constantly growing and changing through many seasons. Some seasons can feel like they last a lifetime, but no matter how difficult the season or how long it sticks around, I believe no one is without hope. I strive to instill that hope and confidence in you and create a space where you feel comfortable navigating tough questions, big emotions, and difficult situations.

Do you feel like the same scene is playing out in your life over and over again, but you have the inability to change the script? Do you feel powerless in managing intolerable feelings and even more consumed in trying to identify why you feel this way?

My goal as a therapist is to help you be free of emotional pain, to achieve your goals, and find meaning/purpose in all aspects of life. I approach all sessions from a strength-based perspective, assisting you in drawing upon your inherent resources.
