I have worked with people with a wide range of concerns including various types of trauma such as emotional, physical and sexual abuse, anger issues, depression, grief and loss, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems and PTSD.

It takes courage to reach out and to take the first step towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to walk with you.

Hello. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile . I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina. I have several years of experience working with people impacted by anxiety, depression, grief/loss, abuse and trauma; among other issues. I specialize in working with domestic violence survivors and families involved with the child welfare system. My belief regarding counseling is that the client possesses the power to change, and that it is my role to help the client become aware of how to utilize that power and guide them through the process. I work from a strength-based perspective and my primary approach to therapy is an integration of person-centered, mindfulness-based and cognitive behavioral therapies. I also integrate techniques from different therapies based on my client’s needs. I have been trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy, which is an evidenced based cognitive- behavioral treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and related problems. Congratulations on taking the first step toward healing! I hope to provide you with the best services possible.

I assist in life transitions so that you may help find your true self. I believe that the answers are all right there inside of us but we often have so much piled on top it is hard to find them. This is where I can help be your "tour guide" in the "treasure hunt" of your life. "Where there is ruin, there is hope for treasure" - Rumi This is so true!! And through the use of your preferred therapeutic technique we can work together to rediscover your true self.

Recovery is a long and soulful process. Finding a counselor with whom to collaborate on your personalized journey to a more whole and independent life is like a hero who needs a good sidekick. If you choose to work with me on your recovery and healing journey I will be a faithful sidekick and you will be the hero of your story. I will encourage you, give you feedback, share hard truths with you, maybe even confront you, give you sage counsel, and essentially be part of your tribe. But like every hero's journey, at the end you will have to face your fears without me. But you will have changed, grown, become larger than your anxieties, rewritten your story by replacing words of doubt, pain and languish with words that more accurately and compassionately represent you and the growth you have worked so hard for. I am a psychotherapist here in the mountains of North Carolina. Since I graduated from Montreat College I have achieved full licensure. For the past 7 years I have worked in a recovery based, person-centered therapeutic community with incredible individuals who suffer from major mental health challenges and in some cases addictions as well. Empathy, warmth, humor and confrontation are my strong suits in the therapeutic relationship. My specialty is in treating disorders of overcontrol by learning and practicing radical openness. Does your self-control get in the way of expressing yourself, or get in the way of living a meaningful life? Maladaptive perfectionism falls into this category, along with all-or-nothing thinking, resistance to feedback, loneliness, anxiety, treatment resistant depression and OCD. My preferred modality is Psychodynamic and I also practice Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Eco Therapy, Existential Therapy and I do Brainspotting, Natural Flow EMDR, and mindfulness. I would be honored to get to know you. May your recovery be profound, may your recovery lead to wholeness, may your recovery sustain. Respectfully, Thomas Wilder MA, NCC, LCMHC, LSAC-A
