Women's Issues Therapists in 28806

The last thing we wish for in the midst of struggle is to feel shame for our human experiences. We often benefit from having another person to partner with during our healing process. It is especially important that we are in the presence of a person who is genuine in creating a space for us that is safe, inclusive, and nurturing. I admire you for taking this step for yourself and I hope you might find it with me - where I will strive to facilitate an environment where you feel free enough to come as you are. I believe that together we can discover the type of love towards yourself that could lead you to a life filled with joy.

Are you struggling with women's issues, trauma, relationships, grief, anxiety, or major life changes? There comes a time when we need some help from a licensed professional to cope with many of life’s challenges, and I’d love to help you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery. My approach is to help you delve deeper into understanding some of the cyclical patterns created and to liberate yourself to optimum health mind, body, and spirit so that you can thrive instead of just survive. I honor the opportunity to explore with an individual their underlining traumas of lacking a spiritual connection to everything around us.

Hello! My name is Holly Young, a licensed clinical mental health counselor with over six years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, women's issues, grief & loss, and assertiveness training for teens and adults. I use a mix of modalities such as Dialectical (DBT), Eclectic, Trauma Focused, Motivational Interviewing, and Supportive therapy. I believe that kindness and authenticity are a great quality to have.

I have a special interest in working with the LGBTQ+ community, women's issues, and trauma survivors. Specifically, I enjoy working with identity and sexuality concerns, self-esteem concerns and empowerment, anxiety, adjustment, and trauma-related concerns. Meeting clients where they are at and working at their pace is of the upmost importance to me.

I am passionate about supporting individuals who identify as women as they navigate the challenges of life. Addiction and recovery, relationship issues/co-dependence, chronic mental and physical dis-ease, and pregnancy/postpartum and parenting can bring us to places of deep loneliness, suffering and desperation. Past experiences have shaped our path and our behaviors. Brilliant strategies that enabled us to survive through trauma and adversity no longer serve us. It IS possible to shift those patterns. With loving connection and non-judgment I create a safe space for individuals to do the deep work that results in real life change.

Welcome! The calming presence of a seasoned therapist can provide much needed respite in an increasingly complex world. At its best, therapy can also help you to get to know yourself better and learn new tools to move forward from a place of self-compassion. I help individuals develop tools to heal from trauma and loss, let go of unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, and identify what they most value at work and in relationships. My deep-seated empathy drives my work with clients, which is informed by my 15 years as a licensed professional counselor and three years as a meditation instructor.

Maybe it’s that feeling of dread you notice first thing in the morning, exhausted before you even start your day. Over-thinking every choice and every interaction is a full time job and most days you would rather hide in bed. On top of that, maybe you feel guilty for feeling what you feel & it's exhausting to work so hard, only to constantly feel like you’re not measuring up. Deep down, you know the controlling, the numbing, the yelling, is not how you want to live your life. You have a sinking feeling that issues from the past are preventing you from moving forward in your life and, deep down, you know you need some support.

Hi, I'm Brit. I'm a neurodivergent and highly sensitive expressive arts therapist. I support folks in Asheville and virtually throughout NC. I focus on working with adults and families who are pregnant or postpartum, as well as with folks across the lifespan who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, low self-worth, sensory sensitivities, grief or loss.

I can help you find more balance, manage stress, and find more satisfaction in your life. I will help you articulate your aspirations, create action plans to achieve your life goals, and hold you accountable. I want to help you to create a life that is fulfilling, meaningful, and joyful. My style is enthusiastic, direct, and fun! I will push you out of your comfort zone, support you when you stumble, and celebrate your successes along the way as you start living the life you want and deserve. I often incorporate wholistic wellness practices into my sessions as well as mindfulness techniques.

A common misconception of counseling is that it is meant to "fix" an individual. More accurately, it is a catalyst for emotional stability, successful relationships, and satisfaction in life. Counseling is meant to build upon one's existing strengths resulting in the ability to manage stress in a healthier way. Often one's innate resiliency is overlooked and problems are approached with the assumption of a deficiency or "illness." A more positive, strength based, approach leads to a more intentional life with a grounded presence.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will uncover behavior and thinking patterns that are probably holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

I enjoy working with women, teens, and first responders in the areas of anxiety, stress, self-esteem, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, trauma, and life transitions. It is within the context of our relationship with self and others that we find or lose balance. It can be hard communicating our feelings and needs with others in an effective way. I offer a whole person, mind-body approach to treatment within the context of a safe and trustworthy therapeutic relationship.

I am a Certified IFS Level 3 Therapist. Counseling is a courageous step toward healing and emotional growth, and I am honored to walk alongside those willing to start this therapeutic process. I am committed to providing professional and relationally based counseling that allows clients to grow, heal, and live from a place of restoration.

Do you want to reconnect and fall in love with your partner again? Or maybe your relationship has felt distant and you really want to feel close again. Do you feel lonely within your relationship and question if it’s even possible to get back on track? You want to build deeper intimacy and trust between you and your partner, but each time an issue arises you both get defensive and it spirals downwards, leaving you feeling more alone. You deserve to have a relationship that feels supportive and nourishing and it is possible to rebuild a deeper connection of trust and intimacy.

Hi there! I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate at Melissa Villodas Counseling and Consulting. Working with new parents, children and athletes is my passion. I have additional training in perinatal care and am working towards my Certification in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C). Supporting you through your time of transition, stress or discomfort and helping you move to a place of peace and growth is my goal.

Way to go about taking the first step to start therapy! Life is crazy right now. It's tough to feel any balance. Stressors weigh on you and may even add to your anxiety and depression symptoms. Perhaps you or your child may be struggling and at a loss for what to do. I can support you to find the best strategies to tackle these stressors and get back to balance despite the things we can't change in the world now. I've spent many years working with individuals to navigate their symptoms to work together to make daily life feel back in balance. I have extensive training and experience to treat the whole person with a mindful approach.

I believe in feelings. YOUR feelings. Usually, people come to me with emotions like overwhelm, isolation and invisibility. They say, “I’m afraid I’m a failure,” and “I don’t think I’m doing this right.” My job is to spark curiosity about your inner landscape. I support your gradual unfolding: learning to metabolize and negotiate feeling states, becoming mindful of the present moment, and locating patterns that you might not even be aware of. I help people understand the nature of attachment, the physiology of pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period, and how authentic connection nourishes our psyche and promotes long-term health.

Welcome! I believe that you inherently have all you need within you to heal, and together we will begin to discover & utilize it. I sit with those who are moving through transitions in life, navigating relationship or family conflict, processing loss & grief, or have survived unwanted sexual experiences & trauma during childhood or as an adult. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or are questioning your self-worth or how to move forward, we will uncover ways to bring ease, peacefulness and growth through building self-acceptance and self-trust as a foundation.

As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner with a specialization in early attachment, I love to support clients to access the incredible power of their own bodies. Focusing on body awareness, mindfulness and empathy, I hold a safe, compassionate space for my clients to move from old traumatic behaviors, thoughts and relational patterns toward freedom and joy. Together, we bring loving attention not only to what hurts but to the self underneath. I love seeing how inner growth helps people shape a life of real connection and creativity.
