I am a Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in North Carolina, Oklahoma and Virginia. I have over 30 years of experience working with clients presenting with a wide range of concerns including relationship difficulties, depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD and adjustment problems. I am certified as a telemental health provider.and also as a clinical trauma professional. My intake process involves a thorough assessment of needs and strengths, usually from a Solution Focused Brief Therapy approach. I strive to help clients to clearly identify the problems that brought them to therapy and the challenges they are facing, and then to collaborate with them to formulate specific, measurable goals to address the identified problems and challenges and find effective solutions. I have extensive experience working with both individuals and couples and enjoy working with clients of various ethnicities and cultural backgrounds. Before moving to North Carolina in 2019 I worked primarily with active duty or retired military members, their spouses, significant others or family members through the Department of the Navy's Fleet and Family Support program. Military families experience problems arising from frequent moves, extended family separations due to deployments or other assignments, and the anxiety and fear family members feel when the service member is in a dangerous situation or when regular communication is not possible. In addition I assisted clients who had experienced domestic violence or childhood abuse or neglect. I also have extensive experience working with parents to improve communication with their children, learn and apply more effective discipline techniques, and develop helpful behavior management practices. I am also well qualified and experienced in providing clinical services from a Christian perspective for clients who prefer a faith based therapy approach. My approach to therapy is individualized and focused on the unique strengths and challenges of each client. My therapeutic style is engaging and collaborative exploring with each client the strengths he or she already has to find solutions. I draw on tools and perspectives from several approaches including Brief Solution Focused Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I know that it takes courage to reach out for help. I would be honored to assist you as you address the concerns that are motivating you to seek counseling services. I believe that together we can find solutions.

Hello! My name is Tonya and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). Originally from Chicago, I earned my MA from University of Chicago in 1998, and since then I have worked in a variety of therapeutic settings including domestic violence shelters, a foster care/adoption agency, and a parenting organization as well as managing a private practice where I currently reside in North Carolina. I work with clients affected by depression, anxiety, life changes, trauma and parenting and relationship challenges. My approach to therapy is client-centered: clients are the experts on their lives and determine the direction and depth of therapy. Through a strengths-based and solutions-focused lens, I draw on multiple treatment modalities to guide clients in identifying strengths and developing treatment plans that accomplish their goals. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I assist clients in exploring relationships among thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to aid in discovering dysfunctional thought patterns leading to self-destructive behaviors and beliefs. Using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I support clients through developing skills: mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotion regulation with the goal of moving clients towards a life involving the capacity for experiencing joy and freedom. Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy cycling, swimming, reading, knitting, cooking, and spending time with my family and friends.

Hello! My name is Donna Cummings and a I am Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist Associate. I received my Master's Degree in 2015, after having worked in the mental health field for 9 years. I have experience working with addiction issues, depression, anxiety, building life skills, and promoting self esteem, self compassion, and other self worth behaviors. I utilized Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy. I believe in providing support, compassion, and therapies, as well as understanding diversity and cultural awareness in assisting my clients in reaching your life goals. I also provide life coaching to clients who do not feel they need therapy, just someone to talk to and work on life skills and other topics. I began my career in mental health after realizing the lack of mental health services available in my community. I feel that there is a need and that everyone deserves to be able to access these services that can enhance their daily living activities and self care. I also feel that there needs to be a move towards normalizing counseling and removing the stigma historically associated with counseling . I will provide a confidential and nonjudgmental setting to assist you in moving towards your goals. I look forward to working with you.

Hi there, I'm Kim! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 14 years of experience in the social work field across various settings. This journey has shaped my understanding and compassion for building healthier mindsets and breaking generational cycles to sustain personal growth and balance. I provide a supportive space to help individuals navigate challenges and achieve lasting peace and purpose. My approach My therapeutic approach is client-centered, rooted in empathy, understanding, and collaboration. I utilize a blend of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to address thought patterns, solution-focused therapy to identify and build on strengths, and trauma-informed care to ensure a safe, supportive environment. My goal is to empower individuals to break cycles, foster resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. My focus My client focus is on individuals seeking personal growth, healing, and balance in their lives. I specialize in helping those who want to break generational cycles, navigate life transitions, and improve their mental health. Whether you’re facing challenges related to stress, trauma, relationships, or self-esteem, I am here to provide support and strategies tailored to your unique needs and goals. My communication style My communication style is warm, empathetic, and supportive, with a focus on active listening and creating a safe, nonjudgmental space for open dialogue. I am very transparent and will guide you in a way that serves your goals. If lasting change is the goal, sometimes uncomfortable dialogue is necessary, but I assure you it will always be approached respectfully and with your best interests in mind. My journey to mental healthcare My journey to becoming a therapist started back in middle school when I became a peer mediator. That experience opened my eyes to how people navigate their emotions and relationships, and it gave me a chance to practice important skills like listening without judgment and helping others find solutions to their conflicts. I quickly realized how much I enjoyed being a support for people in difficult situations, and it sparked something in me—a desire to help others in a deeper, more meaningful way. Over the years, I’ve had moments in my own life that reinforced this path. There were times when I faced challenges or needed guidance myself, and I saw firsthand the power of having someone there to listen, offer perspective, and help me through tough times. I think these personal experiences played a big role in shaping my decision to pursue therapy. As I moved forward, I also found myself naturally gravitating toward roles where I could support others—whether through volunteering, mentoring, or just being there for friends and family. Every time I was able to help someone process their emotions or make sense of their struggles, I felt more certain that this was the work I wanted to do long-term. Eventually, I decided to dive deeper into the field. I pursued formal education and training, learning about psychological theory, therapy techniques, and ethical practices. Through internships and clinical placements, I got hands-on experience and really saw how therapy can transform lives. That solidified my passion for the field. Looking back, I can see how my own experiences, along with a strong desire to help others heal, guided me on this path. It’s been a combination of personal reflection, growing empathy, and a commitment to learning that has brought me to where I am today—a therapist always ready to support others in their journeys. My goals for you I approach goal setting with clients collaboratively, ensuring that the goals are meaningful, realistic, and tailored to their unique needs and circumstances. Together, we identify specific areas for growth, break down larger goals into manageable steps, and create a clear plan of action. I also incorporate regular check-ins to celebrate progress, adjust as needed, and address any challenges, always keeping the client’s values and desired outcomes at the forefront. My first session with you During the first session, clients can expect a welcoming and supportive environment where we’ll focus on building rapport and understanding your unique story. We’ll discuss your concerns, goals, and what led you to seek therapy, as well as review important background information to help me gain a clear picture of your experiences. I’ll also explain the therapeutic process, and answer any questions, and together, we’ll begin creating a plan tailored to your needs and aspirations.
