Biography: Recovery is a long and soulful process. Finding a counselor with whom to collaborate on your personalized journey to a more whole and independent life is like a hero who needs a good sidekick. If you choose to work with me on your recovery and healing journey I will be a faithful sidekick and you will be the hero of your story. I will encourage you, give you feedback, share hard truths with you, maybe even confront you, give you sage counsel, and essentially be part of your tribe. But like every hero's journey, at the end you will have to face your fears without me. But you will have changed, grown, become larger than your anxieties, rewritten your story by replacing words of doubt, pain and languish with words that more accurately and compassionately represent you and the growth you have worked so hard for. I am a psychotherapist here in the mountains of North Carolina. Since I graduated from Montreat College I have achieved full licensure (LCMHC) and I have almost completed my Licensed Substance Abuse Counselor (LSAC-A). For the past 3 years I have worked in a recovery based, person-centered therapeutic community with incredible individuals who suffer from major mental health challenges and in some cases addictions as well. Empathy, warmth, humor and confrontation are my strong suits in the therapeutic relationship. My specialty is in treating disorders of overcontrol. As in, so much self-control it gets in the way of expressing yourself, or gets in the way of living a meaningful life. Maladaptive perfectionism falls into this category, along with all-or-nothing thinking, resistance to feedback, loneliness, anxiety, treatment resistant depression and OCD. My preferred modality is Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy, I also use Narrative Therapy, Eco Therapy, Existential Therapy and I do Brainspotting, Natural Flow EMDR, and mindfulness. I would be honored to get to know you. May your recovery be profound, may your recovery lead to wholeness, may your recovery sustain. Respectfully, Thomas Wilder MA, NCC, LCMHC, LSAC-A

Over the past 9 years, I have worked in a variety of settings with individuals and couples struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, mood disorders, grief, self-esteem issues and relationship issues. In the counseling process I utilize Person Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential Therapy and Solution Focused Brief Therapy.

We can work as a team to help you find your answers and help you reach your goals. I often utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in the counseling process. I am a firm believer that our thoughts and beliefs can direct our emotional wellness in a positive or negative direction.

I believe that I can offer assistance in helping a person challenge irrational or automatic, negative thoughts that worsen depression, anxiety and other emotional challenges. I believe we do have the ability to identify, challenge and change thoughts that do not serve us well. We can create healthy and realistic thoughts that promote mental wellness. I truly love sharing this information with people because I have seen it work wonders in both myself and others. Also, I would like you to know that acceptance is paramount to me. I love working with all types of people. I believe my clients would say I have a warm, accepting and laid back personality. I want people to feel accepted no matter what they say, think or have experienced. I want people to feel they can tell me anything without the fear of judgement. Non-judgement is one of my strengths. It is important to feel you can tell your therapist anything without fear of judgement. You can find that with me. Please let me know if you have questions about me or think we would work well together.

Biography: Thank you for choosing me to embark on this journey with you! "To get thru the hardest journey, we need take only one step at a time, but we must keep on stepping" Hi, my name is Kandace Graves, I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of North Carolina. I received a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from Capella University in 2016. I am currently licensed in North Carolina by the North Carolina Board of Licensed Professional Counselors. (13510). My graduate experience includes a 12-month internship counseling men and women within an urban community in Ohio. As your counselor my aim is to provide a safe and supportive environment where we can collaborate and work at your own pace to help you reach your goals. I work with men, women, children, teens, couples and families whom have experienced trauma, grief, depression, and anxiety. People who have difficulty transitioning into a new chapter in life and provide reunification therapy to families of divorce. I also provide couples counseling. The theoretical approach I use include but are not limited to Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Rational Behavior Therapy. Though each person will experience hardship and difficulty, I believe that the problem with emotions and behaviors are generally a result of how one thinks and feels about a given situation. Person-Centered Therapy emphasizes each person's uniqueness, value and worth which provide an environment safe enough to share honestly and openly. Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes acceptance of uncomfortable feelings or thoughts rather than struggling with or rejecting them, allowing change to occur. Solution Focused Therapy relies on what was helpful in other situations in which the client was able to cope. All theoretical orientations are helpful in identifying the root of distress. I believe that knowing where you come from is important to know where you are headed. Trauma and other experiences have a way of permeating into other areas of our lives such as marriage, familial relationships and friendships. Along with the many benefits of counseling come risks. Since counseling often involves discussing unpleasant or uncomfortable aspects of your life, you may experience feelings such as sadness, guilt, anger, shame and helplessness, just to name a few. Counseling allows you to process your feelings and often leads to better relationships and relief from feelings of distress. In order to benefit the most from the counseling experience you must be committed, engaged, and do work outside of therapy to meet your goals. I abide by the confidentiality standards set forth by NCBLPC and upheld by the state law. All of our communication becomes part of the clinical record, which is accessible to you upon request. I will keep confidential anything you say as part of our counseling relationship, with the following exceptions: (a) you direct me in writing to disclose information to someone else, (b) it is determined you are a danger to yourself or others (including child or elder abuse), or (c) I am ordered by a court to disclose information. This platform is not to be used for emergency purposes. If you are feeling like you will hurt yourself or someone else please contact the suicide hotline and/or go to the nearest emergency room. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. I am excited to join you on this journey!

Biography: My passion stems from this belief: All people have the power and potential to figure out how to best live in this world. My role as a counselor is to help clarify how one's own life experiences influence their thinking, behaviors, emotions and perceptions of the world. Once a person understands the origins of their problems more deeply, they are then able to make and sustain the changes they need to move forward. It is my hope to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space in which a person can feel safe and comfortable exploring their lives and experiences. Trust and the ability to truly consider another's perspective are vital to effective counseling. Meaningful change is most probable when one is able to build off their own strengths. The social work perspective has provided a deeper understanding of how the whole environment needs consideration when working toward change. Since 2015, I have worked as a counselor in the community, inpatient treatment, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient therapy, which is my strength and preference. The experience that sets me apart includes training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and holistic approaches.

If lasting change is the goal, sometimes uncomfortable dialogue is necessary, but I assure you it will always be approached respectfully and with your best interests in mind. My journey to mental healthcare My journey to becoming a therapist started back in middle school when I became a peer mediator. That experience opened my eyes to how people navigate their emotions and relationships, and it gave me a chance to practice important skills like listening without judgment and helping others find solutions to their conflicts. I quickly realized how much I enjoyed being a support for people in difficult situations, and it sparked something in mea desire to help others in a deeper, more meaningful way. Over the years, I've had moments in my own life that reinforced this path. There were times when I faced challenges or needed guidance myself, and I saw firsthand the power of having someone there to listen, offer perspective, and help me through tough times. I think these personal experiences played a big role in shaping my decision to pursue therapy. As I moved forward, I also found myself naturally gravitating toward roles where I could support otherswhether through volunteering, mentoring, or just being there for friends and family. Every time I was able to help someone process their emotions or make sense of their struggles, I felt more certain that this was the work I wanted to do long-term. Eventually, I decided to dive deeper into the field. I pursued formal education and training, learning about psychological theory, therapy techniques, and ethical practices. Through internships and clinical placements, I got hands-on experience and really saw how therapy can transform lives. That solidified my passion for the field. Looking back, I can see how my own experiences, along with a strong desire to help others heal, guided me on this path. It's been a combination of personal reflection, growing empathy, and a commitment to learning that has brought me to where I am todaya therapist always ready to support others in their journeys. My goals for you I approach goal setting with clients collaboratively, ensuring that the goals are meaningful, realistic, and tailored to their unique needs and circumstances. Together, we identify specific areas for growth, break down larger goals into manageable steps, and create a clear plan of action. I also incorporate regular check-ins to celebrate progress, adjust as needed, and address any challenges, always keeping the client's values and desired outcomes at the forefront. My first session with you During the first session, clients can expect a welcoming and supportive environment where we'll focus on building rapport and understanding your unique story.
