Therapists in North Carolina

I would like to help you with the many stressors that can make it difficult to make decisions and to live life with passion. My background in Marriage and Family Issue, Addictions, and Faith-Based Counseling help me to facilitate the peace of mind that is needed for you to effectively live life and address challenges. These challenges may include anxiety, depression, or addiction in your family. My greatest satisfaction is to help you to restore healing, hope, and balance to your life.

It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey. Now that you have taken the first big step in this process I would love to help you continue moving forward. If it is struggling with anxiety from the moment you wake up until the second you are finally able to fall asleep or feeling stuck in a relationship that you once thought gave you everything you wanted. Life can throw some difficult challenges at you and it can be so easy to get lost in survival mode just trying to get through the day.

I love the helping process, and I am here to learn about you – your wisdom, your creativity, and the ways that you have coped with challenges in the past. During our time together, we will explore the experiences you have had in an attempt to bring awareness to things that are working well and things that you would like to change. Maybe you have struggled with self-esteem and fear being judged by others. Perhaps you’re dealing with changes in your life, taking on a new career, entering a new relationship, or navigating parenthood – transitions that all can bring both joy and stress.

If you have been feeling lost, unsure of what's next, feeling increased worry, self-doubt, guilt, or shame—these may be indicators that it’s time to pause. I’d like to help you peel back your layers and make more room to breathe. If relationships have become increasingly difficult to maintain, I’d like to help you build your skills around communication, increasing intimacy, and improving effective dynamics to get your own needs met. Sometimes coping through alcohol or drugs is a part of the struggle, and you are safe to talk about this here without judgment or a hidden agenda.

We all struggle. It is universal. But we can all also learn practices, tools, and insights to help us struggle well. Whether you are feeling hopeless, lost, confused, or down, I believe we can work together to find a way through the tough times and develop the skills you need to keep moving forward in positivity. Areas of focus include mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, ADHD, substance abuse issues, veterans' concerns, and parenting skills.

Marriage is fucking hard. I heard a quote recently where someone asked the secret to making marriage work. The response was, “We never wanted to get divorced at the same time.” Marriage can feel like a roller coaster. Then add the obstacles of children, work schedules and stress, and daily ups and downs and you may find yourself miles apart from your partner. What happened to the fun? What happened to the intimacy and connection? Where the hell did it go? It’s time to make your marriage the priority. It’s time to reconnect and reignite the fire that was once there. It is possible to salvage and repair what has been broken.

I strive to provide a private, informal and comfortable office setting where my clients can expect to be treated with respect and dignity while facing life's challenges. I work with children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples. Some of my interests include: Self esteem, career/work, aging, stress and anger management, women's issues, eating disorders, addiction, conduct disorders, obsessive compulsive disorders, life coaching, assertiveness training, parenting and relationship skills, marital, pre-marital or divorce issues, depression, anxiety, grief/loss, dependency; emotional, sexual and physical abuse, trauma and ADHD.

Every person I serve has a unique story. While some clients experience challenges in just one area, most experience difficulty multiple areas (mental health, trauma, loss, addiction), creating a complex, vicious cycle if not all parts are addressed. The circumstances that bring someone to therapy do not come in 'neat little packages.' I enjoy sorting out the pieces with each client, getting to the root of the issue, and offering a combination of evidence-based therapeutic interventions that help clients finally begin to experience relief, and start living a happier, more fulfilled life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience providing evidence-based therapy to adolescents, children, and adults.

I do my best to practice the tenets of empathy and unconditional positive regard while using an eclectic approach that informs my therapy including Humanistic, Family Systems, CBT, DBT, Solutions Focused, schematic therapy, reality, and relational therapy.

We are looking for couples who want sessions from both a male and female perspective as my husband and I can provide sessions together through our couples package.

Immediate virtual evening sessions. We're living in such uncertain times. You may have already been living with financial stress, health issues, or perhaps relationship complications. On top of those, there’s an unpredictable virus that’s been holding us all hostage, as well as political and social unrest. That’s a lot for any one person to try to unpack alone. If you want to talk about how these things are impacting your life, or the other stresses you were already facing, reach out to me at your convenience. Serving clients in NC and VA.

Do you find yourself struggling with overthinking, relationship satisfaction, or relieving past hurts or scary moments? Please know that you don't have to go through this. Establishing treatment with the goal to manage these symptoms, and in many cases eliminate the symptom is within reach. To wake up feeling light and burdensome free, without past hurts shadowing over your present is reason enough to establish care.

Hi! I'm Leslie. My speciality is providing down to earth, exploratory, strength based therapy. I take a collaborative approach with my clients in addressing a variety of concerns ranging from life transitions and relationship issues to anxiety/depression, stress management, parenting concerns and ADHD (and just about everything in between.)

Everyone has times in their life that they need to talk to someone. Throughout my career, I have worked with a broad range of people-children, individuals, and couples.

My life experiences have taught me to look at each client as an individual with their own needs and strengths. I believe that therapy can help us find specific solutions to our problems- whether those struggles are internal, external, personal, or relationally oriented.
