Therapists for college students near Duke University

I am a bilingual (Spanish/English) Licensed Clinical Social Worker. As a veteran, I understand the importance of trust, resilience, and having someone who truly listens without judgment. My approach to therapy is grounded in real-world experience, cultural humility, and a deep commitment to supporting individuals through trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I offer a steady, grounded presence to help clients build emotional strength, develop healthier patterns, and move toward a life that feels meaningful and manageable.

Do you feel guilty if you say no to someone or ask for help with something? Do you feel like you're too much or too emotional? Do you want to stop dysfunctional family patterns and break generational trauma? Do you want to stop using coping skills that hurt you or your loved ones? If you answered yes to any of these, then you've come to the right spot. Together, we can discover the root causes behind your struggles with anger, anxiety, guilt, shame, depression, codependency, disorganized eating or low-self esteem. It only takes one person to break a cycle and together we can get you to where you want to be in your healing journey. I empower women, men and teenagers by giving them tools to find their voice and advocate for what they need. My goal is to work myself out of a job and give you the tools that you need to be successful. I bring a trauma-informed approach to my sessions that focuses on mindfulness, relaxation, self compassion and advocating for what your needs are.

I practice with science-supported strategies to help people reduce stress, make health behavior changes (e.g., eat healthier), and adjust to illness or injury. I also work extensively with individuals who experience anxiety, depression, body image concerns, and disordered eating. I am trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based interventions, and positive psychology interventions. I conduct teletherapy and am licensed for residents in North Carolina and all the states in PSYPACT (https://psypact.site-ym.com/page/psypactmap) . Teletherapy has been found to be comparably effective to in-person therapy. It also offers greater flexibility, accessibility, and privacy. I'd be happy to work with you!

I offer affirming and anti-oppressive space for you to explore who you are, what you've been through, how those experiences have shaped you, and how you'd like to shape your future. Everything is connected: symptoms such as anxiety and depression are often related to relationship and resource issues, which connect to things like identity, neurotype, or environment. I work with teens and adults struggling with multiple concerns within themselves, their relationships, and their communities. I've worked with students dealing with things like: understanding their own gender/sexual/romantic identities, social isolation and anxiety, relationships with family, friends, and significant others, academic concerns, on-campus discrimination, and histories of childhood mistreatment or abuse.

Anxiety and depression can affect anyone at any time. You do not have to manage things alone. As a licensed clinical mental health counselor, our job is to come alongside you and work with you to develop skills to make your emotions and reframe your thoughts. I strive to provide a welcoming, caring, environment where you feel heard.

Drawing from 10+ years of clinical experience, I use a solution-focused approach to teach skills to overcome worry, depression, anger, stress, guilt, low self-esteem, sleep issues, relationship struggles, and parenting challenges. My clients and I work on improving their wellness and their lives by exploring helpful solutions, perspectives, and habits.

Hello, I'm Joanna, and I have been in private practice since 2010. I specialize in trauma, grief and bereavement, and support for those with a chronic or terminal illness, their family members, and their caregivers. I have experience with LGBTQQIA+ patients, Veterans and Active Duty, and I am Kink Aware. I'm a military brat, and the wife of a Veteran, so moving, change, and being the "new person" in many situations is something I have experienced for most of my life.

At times life comes at you so fast that nothing seems to slow it down and walking the journey can feel overwhelming. I am here to walk it with you, at your pace, in any direction you want to go. Some times that means we may sit on a rock together. You will feel heard and validated with no judgement; only acceptance for where you are in the journey.

I offer a range of approaches including expressive arts informed therapy, body-centered therapy, and traditional talk therapy. I also specialize in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD. My goal is to create a welcoming, non-judgmental environment and provide you with the tools to authentically explore yourself, solve problems, and cope with difficult experiences. I am committed to affirming and uplifting marginalized identities across racial, ethnic, gender, sexual, and religious lines. Having completed my clinical training at the Appalachian State counseling center, I am experienced in working with college students including non-traditional students.

I was born and raised in the Columbia area where I stayed to attend undergraduate and graduate school, graduating with a Master of Social Work degree from the University of South Carolina. I am independently licensed to provide therapy services and have experience working with children, teens, young adults, and parents to address concerns such as trauma, depression, and anxiety. I accept Blue Cross-Blue Shield insurance as well as private pay. I am currently accepting in-person and virtual clients in South Carolina and North Carolina. Please don't hesitate to ask me about my sliding-scale fees.
