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.

(NOTE: Right now I am only accepting new clients that either can schedule during day time hours OR are text only clients) My name is Valerie Glass. I have worked as a therapist in a variety of settings for nearly 20 years. I currently hold a doctorate in marriage and family therapy and also work teaching students who are studying to become therapists. I have extensive experience working with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship issues, and family issues. In addition, I specialize in LGBTQ clients and women's issues. Clients come to therapy for many different reasons. Some clients need a space to process life changes and challenges. Other clients seek direction and accountability. I meet clients where they are and provide a non-judgmental and collaborative space. I think of therapy as a journey to healing and becoming better - whatever that means to the individual. My role is to really understand where clients are coming from and to support their desired direction. I am quite humbled by my role as a therapist and the vulnerabilities I see and experience as part of this role. I project an open and honest atmosphere and respect the challenges brought to the space.

Hi there! Are you ready to make healthy changes in your life, but you're not quite sure what that looks like and are looking for support and guidance? Are you wanting to heal from the death of a loved one or beloved animal? Do you feel as though something is missing or out of balance in your life? Are you having questions about your career/current profession and need some guidance? Are you a Highly Sensitive Person? (HSP) Please reach out if you are a fellow therapist, writer/artist/musician, and/or teacher as I am familiar with and have experience in these worlds. **Before you book a session, we will need to message to make sure I'm can offer the support you need. Any sessions before messaging may be canceled.** If you are coming to counseling specifically to work on trauma, I encourage you to look for a counselor with a specialty in trauma. Finding the right fit with a counselor is an important decision. As you scroll through everyone, I want to acknowledge the fact you are taking this first step. My intention is to create an environment that is non-judgmental because it takes courage to move beyond your comfort zone. Counseling can be difficult at times, but it is an important investment in yourself. I offer sessions primarily Monday-Wednesday afternoons, with occasional Thursdays to permanent North Carolina residents. My given name is Theresa, but I've always been called Tracie. My experience includes helping people process grief, loss, anxiety, and moving through life's transitions and believe in being supportive, curious, compassionate, with a good sense of humor. As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in the state of North Carolina, as well as a Nationally Certified Counselor, I use an eclectic approach of Cognitive-Behavioral therapy, Psychodynamic, ACT, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative, and Humanistic (client-centered) theories, and am also Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed. I'm mindful that a full person comes to therapy, which also includes incorporating body awareness and a person's spiritual/humanistic/existential beliefs into the process. Thirteen years as a former community college psychology and sociology teacher helps bring an even greater understanding to our sessions. I also facilitate some classes on BetterHelp for healing your heart after pet loss, two for Creatives and Creativity, The Highly Sensitive Person, Procrastination, and one about your Professional Journey. One of my unique specialties is in pet loss grief and as an author, I wrote my first novel, BURIED DEEP IN OUR HEARTS, to help people with their healing process. Please reach out if you have any questions or would like to connect to see how I can help you on your Life's journey.

*Ethics Note: It is very important to me that I provide the most ethical treatment as possible. I refer to the National Association of Social Worker's Code of Ethics and the law to guide my practice. Here are some things you should know up front, for complete transparency: 1. You must be a resident of and located in either North Carolina or Virginia for me to hold a session with you as I am licensed in those states. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about this. Unfortunately, this is a regulation between the various states and is not my personal choice. Also: As recommended by the NC Social Work Board and several major insurance carriers, it is my professional policy to do our initial session via video platform. Once we develop the therapeutic relationship, you can choose to use the telephone or chat options. Again, if you have any concerns, questions or wish for additional information, please feel free to contact me and I will be delighted to discuss this with you. AND NOW....please read on to learn a little about ME & My Practice! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with a PhD in counseling and a year of completed medical school training. I have practiced social work over the course of 20 years as a community advocate, professor, psychotherapist, teacher, researcher, the assistant director of a behavioral health department in a rapidly growing CMO in North Carolina and have worked with government officials in countries throughout Africa, regions of India, and Central America as well as almost every contiguous US state. My therapeutic approach is based in an integration of client-centered methods and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and all of its offshoots such as DBT (certified) ACT etc. When appropriate, I also use solution focused and internal family systems methods as well. I am certified in grief counseling, mindfulness, and trauma informed CBT. I believe that everyone brings a unique skill to the table; none more or less important and none requiring judgment. You get to be the absolute expert in your life (Just one of many expert skills you bring) and I, get to bring my knowledge and experiences to support and provide you different ways to possibly think and/or approach the challenges that you encounter in your life. No magic potions, "spells" or special secrets required. I believe in complete transparency so ask me what you wish about your sessions and I will respond as honestly and clearly as I can possibly be. My primary goal is to create a safe and accepting space where you can take off all of the masks and relax in your authentic self with absolutely no judgment. I pride myself on being highly approachable to all. In my world, every human is equally wonderful regardless of title, financial income, and how big their house is or is not etc. I tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs and preferences because in my world, you are way more than a number and I am way more than an assembly line worker. Previous clients have been amazed that I remember every thing that is told to me in sessions and usually can actually remind you about something you said in a particular session off the top of my head. How do I do this? I genuinely care about your therapeutic progress. Right now, you are going to just have to trust me on this, I recognize that. I am always so honored when people consider me as their therapist out of all of the talented professionals available to them. I want you to know that taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes a lot of courage. I am here to reach my hand out to you, to support you in making your therapy journey a positive and fulfilling experience that eventually leaves you with your desired, best life worth living! Be well and create your joy!

Each type of therapy can offer various benefits and address or treat different disorders. If you're still unsure or are new to counseling in Stokesdale, feel free to contact the provider via email to find out which methods they practice.

Regardless of their licensure, they are trained to treat individuals and couples counseling, and sometimes children, in any type of therapy in the Stokesdale region and in the state of North Carolina. Find a therapist under any of these distinctions and know that the sessions they offer can provide a safe place to heal.

A mental health counselor working through their own in-person therapy practice in Stokesdale or online may assist clients in improving healthy relationships, communication skills, working through life transitions, couples counseling, managing a mood disorder, improving coping skills, self help tips, offer life coaching, family therapy, or change in negative thinking patterns.

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Stokesdale therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Stokesdale due to a higher cost of living.

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Stokesdale?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a Stokesdale 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.

Stokesdale 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 Stokesdale therapy 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 Stokesdale therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art 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.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Stokesdale counselor?

Before seeing your Stokesdale therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the therapy process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, let them know if you have any concerns about therapy or feel unsure about what to talk about. They may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy in Stokesdale.

Should I find a 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 therapy entails. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback and advice from a therapist. A Stokesdale 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 through therapy with a Stokesdale 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 mental health care and therapy with a therapist 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. A psychologist 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 psychologist in Stokesdale, 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.

Stokesdale has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online therapy to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
