Actively engaging in therapy encourages you to be the best version of yourself and live your happiest, healthiest and most productive life.
Therapy is an active process where you address problematic behaviors, beliefs, feelings, and/or relationship issues. You may ask, what will my therapy look like? That’s up to you. The process of therapy is unique to each individual and we empower each person to establish their own goals. We offer some services in both North and South Carolina, but some services are specific to the state we serve. Please read below to learn more about what we offer for your local community.

Telehealth
You and your therapist may decide telehealth is a good fit for you, giving you the option to meet with your therapist virtually, from the comfort of your home or other setting where you feel comfortable. Some benefits of telehealth:
- Limiting physical contact reduces everyone’s exposure to COVID-19
- Visiting virtually can address health issues wherever you are, even from the comfort of home
- Less time commuting means less time off from work; reduces the need for child care; less money spent on transportation
Assessment*
Licensed therapists complete a thorough assessment, with input from you (and others if you allow). The assessment may be used to establish medical necessity; confirm a diagnosis (diagnoses); assist in the development of an individualized plan of care based upon your strengths and needs and/or to assess progress in treatment and confirm the need for continued treatment.
