Therapists in Durham, NC

I am passionate about supporting people who range in age from early childhood through adulthood. My background in child psychology informs my work with adults as well, as I am always considering how a person's developmental path and early relationships have shaped them. In therapy, I strive to bring empathy, warmth, and humor to the process. You can expect me to be curious about and accepting of your experiences as I support you in actively working towards change. I am sensitive to issues related to disability, immigration, and non-traditional forms of family building, and welcome all to my practice.

My goal in therapy is to guide you in self-exploration so you can better understand yourself and the issues you face, and then learn what it looks like to live in alignment with your values. At the foundation of this work is a trustworthy therapeutic relationship. I have experience and am trained to help clients navigate eating disorders/disordered eating, anxiety, depression, religious trauma, pregnancy/postpartum, and significant life transitions. I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming clinician devoted to creating a safe space for all identities. I enjoy working with clients of all ages and am Health at Every Size (HAES) aligned.

Are you or your child struggling with feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or depressed? Are you dealing with a stressful life transition and need support? I provide virtual therapy to adults, teens, and children ages 8+. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, perinatal mood issues, attention difficulties, behavior issues, trauma, and grief/loss. I'm also a mom of 3 and enjoy helping parents navigate life changes and find work/life balance.

I am the owner of Attuned Psychotherapy. We are a private group practice in NE Raleigh, NC. Our team offers child/play therapy as well as individual, couples, family, & group counseling. I specialize in treatment of complex childhood trauma, domestic violence, religious trauma, & pregnancy/infant loss. My primary framework is attachment focused. As humans we are designed to enjoy connection with others. From before birth we are already making connections to significant people in our lives. We need secure loving relationships in order to function optimally. When safety is threatened & love is absent we become overwhelmed.

Are you stuck and needing to process childhood trauma? Is your child sad, anxious or angry, and you know they need help? Do you feel like no one understands the challenges of creating a family (infertility, perinatal loss, miscarriage, IVF, adoption)? I shifted careers into mental health counseling in 2016 after 20 years of community advocacy to address injustice and empower women, children, and communities. I am a healing-centered, trauma-focused therapist now because I believe you - and your family - deserve guidance and support to reimagine and re-author your life narrative.

Hi! My name is Angelica and I am currently accepting new clients for online counseling! I am a LCMHC and a NCC. I am part of a private practice, Lifeologie, located in Raleigh & Durham. I offer services across North Carolina through online counseling. I enjoy working with all age groups and am passionate about helping others work through life transitions, managing stress, depression, and anxiety. I believe in facing problems with clients and listening in order to understand what clients’ specific needs are in order to help them navigate through their problems.

Rumi wrote, “Don’t turn away. Keep your gaze on the bandaged place. That’s where the light enters you.” We spend a lot of time running from our pain, trying to drown it out or stuff it down with distractions--work, relationships, media, alcohol. When we stop running, stop hiding, we are able to face our pain head on. Only then, are we able to be fully present and aware, which is the first step to acceptance and later, transformation. Partnering with a therapist can make this feel less daunting. I can teach you skills to manage your emotions so that they won’t overwhelm you. Together, we can help you find where the light enters you.

I’ve had the pleasure of serving the child, adolescent and adult population in a variety of settings! I approach therapy from a person-centered, cultural and trauma-informed perspective. It is my belief that each client’s life experience shapes their perspective on the challenges they face and their approach to facing those challenges in a healthy manner.

Are you experiencing difficulties in your life related to anxiety, depression, communication with your partner, or the long-term impact of trauma? I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor (LCMHCS) with over 17 years of experience helping Children, Adults, Couples and Families. I have extensive expertise in treating traumatic stress, anxiety, depression, oppositional behaviors, relational issues, and couples issues. I founded Potter Counseling & Consulting in 2016 and devote much of my time to training and supervising our team of clinicians.

Hello, my name is Jenny. I have a deep passion for helping individuals struggling with depression, relationship violence, PTSD, trauma, and addiction. Specifically, I aim to help serve women, men, and the LGBTQIA community as an ally in both my personal and professional life. To best reach this goal, I've armed myself with specialized certificates in LGBTQIA support, co-occurring disorders, family healing, and trauma-informed assistance.

Do you feel like you're holding yourself back? I work with people who want to get out of their own way. They identify as over-thinkers, high achievers, and perfectionists and are often experiencing anxiety and depression from feeling like they’re not reaching their full potential. They might be musicians, singers, dancers, actors, cheerleaders, athletes, or working professionals. They feel frustrated that their own self-talk and perfectionism gets in the way of their ability to perform to their highest level.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor & Supervisor and have over 15 years of experience working with clients of all ages. My approach is warm and supportive and I view clients through a strengths-based lens. I understand that the challenges facing us today are stressful and unpredictable, and I will work in collaboration with you to help you regain balance, presence, and compassion for yourself in your personal growth.

Have you or your child been struggling with paying attention, meeting life/school goals, and/or making progress despite being in therapy or taking medication to manage symptoms? Are you looking for answers and recommendations that can help to improve your or your child's success in your relationships, work, home, and/or school? Are you an adult struggling with a transition in life or a parent who is seeking support managing the stressors of being a new parent or raising a child(ren)? We can help! At Waite PTS we are dedicated to helping you identify and achieve goals so that you can live your best life.

My passion centers on the ways in which early relationships, life experiences and cultural contexts shape our worldviews and impact our choices, coping and performance. I also focus on the interplay between the mind and the physical body, and the ways we can use this connection to increase well-being and overall functioning. Over the past 15 years I have worked in various academic medical institutions and hospitals (UCLA, CHLA), using research-based interventions to guide individuals (children, youth and adults), couples and families in working towards agency, personal growth, positive change, insight, and adaptation to life events.

Do you feel like the relationships in your life are not healthy or fulfilling? Maybe you made decisions in the past that you regret? Or perhaps you are stuck in a situation that doesn’t make you happy, or where no one listens to you? Maybe you want things to change, but don’t know where to start. You have made the right choice by coming here to seek help. Many of us worry about these things on a daily basis and you are not alone. If this resonates with you and you came here to look for answers, you’ve taken the most difficult and important step. I know that changing can be scary, but it is possible.

I offer individual, couples and family therapy, and have extensive experience working within the LGBTQIA+ community. I believe being seen, heard and affirmed are integral in the healing process and center clients accordingly. I work with grief, trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship challenges and changes, un-partnered parenting and coparenting, family crisis and early childhood issues. I draw from Trauma-Informed practices and Evidence-Based techniques including Emotionally Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems Therapy and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT).

Adaptation, growth, and healing can happen within the right therapeutic alliance. For some of us, pursuing therapy is just acknowledging that we are capable of more joy and more ease on this human journey. I have worked with a wide range of presenting concerns, ages, and abilities. I take pride in my creativity with customizing therapy tools to fit clients who learn best in less traditional ways.

I specialize in the treatment of adolescents (ages 7+), adults, and families, utilizing an approach that I tailor to the presenting concerns of my client(s). I frequently employ dialectical behavioral therapy for the treatment of eating disorders, depression, anxiety, and self-injurious behaviors. I enjoy using humor and various mindfulness-based approaches in therapy and take a collaborative approach with my clients to ensure clients play an active role in their treatment. I particularly love working with tweens and teens and strongly believe in learning mindfulness and various ways to cope with strong emotions as an adolescent.
