When floating down the river of life we sometimes come to rapids that we aren't prepared for. Whether we have a raft boat full of experienced paddlers to help us get through the whitewater rapids or we're going at it alone, it's always great to have someone help us get to dry land.

Mount Holly is home to the U.S. National Whitewater Center and the largest recirculating river that is manmade and capable of producing up to Class IV whitewater rapids. Mount Holly also attracts many other outdoor enthusiasts for kayaking, ziplining, and rock climbing. Take a risk and talk to a professional counselor nearby today.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and trauma specialist with over 10 years of experience working with individuals experiencing varying levels of unwanted mental health obstacles. An office and couch was not my style to impact others, so I built my career coming to them, working with clients inside residential treatment, in-patient psychiatric, and in-home counseling with high risk families. By having worked for the high risk community, I can say not only have I heard "almost" all, but I've been there and carried some of the battle scars too. I've always preferred environments where I've had to give my best work but work fast with client's who did not have the time or patience for a more drawn out treatment. It's been my desire to specialize with those clients who were dealt the most challenging of hands. I guess you can say those are my people. I'm accustomed to working in areas of depressive episodes, panic and anxiety, broken family relationships, life stressors, parenting issues, abnormal psychiatric, spiritual issues, and traumatic experiences. While I may utilize multiple evidence based treatment strategies, inner healing doesn't come in a box, and is different for everyone. I believe the best therapy is done through having as much first hand experience in the trenches with what it is that we are working on. Some wisdom can only be gained by experiencing. Is this counseling or therapy? Counseling may look like just casual chatting back and forth via messaging as some seem to prefer to have a second party help them look at their life. For others focusing on more significant distresses, therapy could consist of the traditional order: a more comprehensive session to identify the sometimes hidden roots of the problem (what sustains it) and then at your readiness some live sessions to begin the work to promote your mind and body Healing, Our Head is still attached to our body, so for some it may be necessary to take re-ownership of both components. But you may be thinking: Therapy doesn't really work, I'm not a mushy feelings type of person... You're in good company; We're just re-learning balance. You used to have it! Finding again that place of optimal functioning. If your mind rattled your world enough to get you to even consider therapy, it's more likely you have a talent for a very strong mind, but you may just need to learn to control your power. Our professional relationship and your trust in my care for people and confidence to help them overcome, I hold as my greatest skills.

Hi, my name is John Reid and welcome to the BetterHelp platform. Thank you for allowing me to provide you with Professional Counseling Services and thank you for considering me as your Therapist/Counselor. The five most important personal and professional characteristics that I consider necessary for a successful Counselor are: to be a good listener, to be non-judgmental, to genuinely care about people, to be professionally trained, and to be experienced. Yes, experience is necessary. I began Pastoring in 1968 while in college. I have pastored two churches and served as a Director of Missions for a Baptist Association of 50 churches for more than 20 years here in Western North Carolina. Afterwards, I began being a Professional Counselor for the next twenty-five years at a Counseling Agency, a Baptist Residential Cottage serving teen age boys and their families, as a Therapist with two different Mental Health agencies, as a therapist in public schools, and as a BetterHelp Counselor working with Clients in the US from the Pacific to the Atlantic and working with International Clients in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, the Caribbean, and from Canada to Mexico in North America. I have worked with English speaking clients in Thirty-Three Countries around the world. Yes, education is necessary. I earned a Master’s Degree in Counseling in 1976 and used the Counselor training in my church work. I became a Licensed Professional Counselor in 2007 and recently completed a five year training program in Gestalt Therapy with Appalachian Gestalt Training Institute in Asheville, NC. I am required to do forty hours of Continuing Training every two years to maintain my Counseling License. While education, training, and experience are important, nothing replaces a willingness and an ability to listen at a deep human level and relate one to one. I know there is a lot of stress in our lives. Along life’s journey I have made some mistakes. Out of these experiences I have learned that everyone, no matter who you are or what station in life you are, makes mistakes. Experiencing forgiveness is important. One can recover from mistakes and move forward. And I learned not to be judgmental. I will not judge you. All of my life experiences have taught me to genuinely care for others and the concerns they have in their lives. I have helped many people, adults and children, with a variety of Mental Health issues included but not limited to: Depression, Anxiety, various Mood Disorders, ADHD, Low Self-Esteem, Marriage and Divorce, Divorce Reaction, Blended Families, Relationship Issues, and Anger Management issues to mention a few. My wife and I have been married for forty-nine years. We have two successful daughters and a beautiful granddaughter. When doing Christian counseling, I use the Bible as a text but not as a weapon. I do not believe in using the Bible to beat people over the head. I believe that love in all its expressions heals.

I am a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina and South Carolina with 13 years of psychotherapy experience serving adults and older adults. Over the years, I’ve supported clients through a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, life transitions, family dynamics, and geriatric-specific challenges. My ideal clients are often those who identify as BIPOC, as I deeply recognize how cultural experiences, identity, and history shape the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. For many, these experiences can bring unique strengths as well as unique challenges. I am committed to holding space for those perspectives, helping clients explore how culture influences their thoughts, behaviors, and healing process. At the same time, my practice is inclusive and welcoming to clients of all backgrounds, and I value the opportunity to work with anyone seeking support. I take an eclectic approach to counseling, meeting clients where they are. I draw from solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness to create a plan that feels personal and practical for each individual. Every client receives care that is tailored to their unique needs. I work to create a relaxed, judgment-free environment where clients feel safe to share openly. I bring compassion, support, and empathy into every session, with the belief that dignity and worth are at the core of personal growth. I also allow my clients to set the tone of our work together; whether interactive and energetic, or calm and reflective, our sessions will reflect your personality and comfort level. I admire the courage it takes to invest in yourself and to work toward becoming the best version of you. If you feel we may be a good fit, I would be honored to walk alongside you in your journey of healing and growth.

Psychotherapy helps in managing your feelings, making better choices, and removing the obstacles to your goals. As a licensed psychotherapist I work with individuals, couples, and families from diverse cultural backgrounds dealing with emotional difficulties, relationship problems and various psychological conditions. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, and adjustment disorders. My goal is to help my clients define what they truly want, and then help them manage the obstacles that get in their way. We will explore symptoms and concerns in the context of your personality, your history, and patterns in how you have come to deal with your feelings. I believe change occurs in therapy as you begin to understand unconscious patterns in the way you think, feel, and relate to others.

I have worked in the counseling profession since March 1995. My experience includes working as a counselor for adult women in an inpatient psychiatric unit specializing in clients presenting with eating disorders, personality disorder, psychotic disorder and other clinical presentations. I was employed as a child and adolescent therapist at Park Ridge Hospital with responsibilities that included family, individual, group and conjoint counseling. I co-facilitated a group for at risk adolescents through the Juvenile Crime Prevention Council for four years and facilitated a weekly group for the same population at the Polk County High School for 4 years. I was employed as a therapist for Rutherford/Polk Mental Health from 2001 through 2004. My responsibilities included individual, group, and family therapy, along with assessments and crisis intervention. After the N. C. mental health reform in April 2004, I began to work with New Vistas Behavioral Services where I was employed as a therapist working children, adolescents and adults in their community location, as well as in the local High School. I was employed by Cooperriis Healing Community in Mill Spring, N.C. From 2005 until the end of 2018.

Use of diagnosis: Some health insurance companies will reimburse clients for counseling services and some will not. Most will require a diagnosis of a mental-health condition and indicate that you must have an “illness” before they will agree to reimburse you. Some conditions for which people seek counseling do not qualify for reimbursement. We will discuss the use of diagnosis and if/when submitted to your insurance company it will become a part of your permanent insurance records. I began working with BetterHelp as an online therapist in October 2021. All billing and scheduling is handled through the BetterHelp platform. Diagnosis is not used as a tool in this format and clients must agree to use 911 for emergencies as this is not a platform to be used for crisis intervention. All billing is handled through their organization. Some other telehealth organizations will require a diagnosis and will bill insurance. Private practice sessions are usually 50-60 minutes. Cost varies between individual and family conjoint sessions. I provide phone sessions for clients who live out of the area. These sessions are generally 30-45 minutes in length. Use of a diagnosis will be discussed and can be used as a road map for treatment in my private practice if on a self – pay basis. I will keep confidential anything you say as part of our counseling relationship with the following exceptions: You direct me in writing to disclose information to someone else, it is determined you are a danger to yourself or others, or I am ordered by a court to disclose information. Although clients are encouraged to discuss any concerns with me first, you may file a complaint against me with the organization below should you feel I am in violation of any of these codes of ethics.

My name is Tracy Lewis. I have been practicing for almost twenty years. I have a master's degree in Social Work. I am also a Certified Integrative Health Coach. I enjoy working to help people improve their lives. My favorite treatment approaches are Client Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Clients often know what they need. They just need someone to guide them to. In this approach, you act as an equal partner in the therapy process, while your therapist remains non-directive and not past judgments on your feelings. The therapist help guide clients to grow psychologically, become more self-aware, and change their behavior via self-direction. The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy-based approaches are designed to help clients deal with anxiety, stress and depression by teaching them how to develop their skills needed to stop negative or unhelpful thoughts and start thinking, feeling and behaving in more positive ways. I look forward to working with you to guide you to become a better you!

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about licensed therapists and mental health services

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Mount Holly area can be found below:

Does BetterHelp take insurance?

Yes, BetterHelp has joined with major insurance carriers in select states to provide in-network therapy coverage. Coverage may vary by plan, provider, and therapist availability. Insured members pay an average co-pay of around $19 per session. Average co-pay is based on current insured BetterHelp members. Explore insurance coverage in major Texas cities like ArlingtonLubbockPlanoCorpus ChristiEl PasoHoustonDallasSan AntonioFort Worth, and Austin.

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Mount Holly due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • With therapists: $100-300
  • With a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Mount Holly may not take health insurance, some in the state of North Carolina may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of North Carolina you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $70 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

Is BetterHelp right for me?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Mount Holly is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

With a lot of people in NC, therapists may be booked out with clients.

Should I find a Mount Holly therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Mount Holly licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is therapy worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Mount Holly, North Carolina can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
