I am licensed in North Carolina with 4 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, coping with grief and loss, & intimacy related issues. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, individuals and couples. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I enjoy working with clients who are committed to making changes in their life. I take pleasure in providing my clients with tools and techniques so that they can reach their potential and ultimately stop coming to therapy. I know your time and money is valuable, so I try to be as structured, and goal oriented as possible. I enjoy hearing how well my clients are doing and seeing their progress in treatment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Tonia Locklear. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
We've only had 1 session so far but being on the same wave length really helped talking to her. I was very comfortable. It's not easy talking to anyone about family issues, but she's comforting.
