Therapists in Stokesdale, NC
Stokesdale, North Carolina was once known as Green Pond. Perhaps this town that once put their General Store, post office, and public meeting room all under one roof, is better characterized by the motto that citizens chose for their town seal—“Amor Vincit Omnia” which means “Love Conquers Everything.” In most cases, love does conquer everything, but it won’t cure your ills when you’re not feeling your mental or emotional best.
It’s not necessary to feel like you’re sinking in a pond of the green swamp. Your perfect match of a professional licensed counselor in the Stokesdale area is willing to work with you to improve your well- being so you can get back to feeling like you can conquer the world.

Hi, I'm Carol, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Addictions Counselor in North Carolina. I've been working in mental health, addictions, and/or crisis intervention since fields of mental health, addictions, and crisis intervention over 30 years ago when I was first in graduate school in Southern Illinois. I started volunteering at a drop-in crisis agency, and from that experience and my graduate school counseling work I fell in love with talking to people, getting to know them, hearing about what they were struggling with in the moment, what they were wanting to do, and what they were stuck with that was making it challenging to reach their goals. I took a circuitous route to getting my graduate degree in Rehabilitation Counseling with a mental health and addictions focus as I worked through some of my own issues, then I started working in residential and outpatient settings with people dealing with addictions, mental health issues, and eating disorders. After awhile I went back to school, this time in New Orleans, for a Master's Degree in Social Work. Since then I've been continuing with crisis intervention, mental health therapy, and addictions work. I'm passionate about helping people look at their lives, notice what works and doesn't work, identify what they want to be different, and help them find ways to accept what is or make changes that fit for them. Although I recognize sometimes we cannot change what is, I believe we can usually change what we think and believe about what is, which in turn changes how we interact within our relationships and the world around us. I am a compassionate, gentle, caring person who is highly ethical, believes every person can choose their own way to be in the world, and that every person has a right to do so within the limits of not hurting others and, preferably, not hurting themselves either. I am accepting of people of various races, cultures, beliefs, colors, values, sexual preferences, genders, etc. I am quiet, calm, easy to talk with, love cats and other animals, listen well, enjoy reading and listening to books, and watch minimal TV. I have lived in Washington, Kentucky, Illinois, Alabama, Iowa, Missouri, Louisiana, and Colorado. I have worked extensively with military Veterans and come from a military family.

To all my Prospective Clients: Hello, I am Sherry Friedman, a National l Board Certified Counselor (NCC), clinical mental health counselor licensed in Rhode Island, North Carolina, and South Carolina with twelve years of experience. My clinical orientation is Jungian (transformational and psychodynamic) and my counseling approach is holistic and multi-dimensional. This means I explore my clients' biopsychosocial, emotional, environmental, cultural, energetic, spiritual, and cosmological influences that may be creating stress, anxiety, grief, emotional trauma, relationship issues, and career challenges. As an HSP (Highly Sensitive) Person HSP Psychotherapist (https://hsperson.com) Empath, and Reiki Master, I am skilled at creating an emotionally safe space and empowering my clients to discover and embrace their gifts and strengths with healthy boundaries. I offer a warm, interactive counseling style and I practice "Listening with HEART" (Healing, Energy, Awareness, Resiliency, Transformation) and HeartMath coherence as a mindfulness-based treatment approach. The ultimate goal of all therapy is transformation, so that we can move forward as the highest, best version of ourselves. This typically involves finding one's life purpose and who we incarnated on this planet to become. Deeper self-discovery and getting to the root cause of pain requires a rare form of bravery. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and take that first step toward change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to empower you and look forward to working with you! All the best, Sherry Ann ("Share") Friedman, NCC, LCMHC MA School Psychology, (Ball State University), MS Ed Gifted Education (Purdue University), MS Clinical Counseling (Bellevue University)
