I facilitate healing work with individuals moving through concerns related to anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, life transitions, grief & loss, stress management, ADHD, codependency, and self-esteem. In my work with clients, I utilize a person-centered approach through an existential lens. Working from this perspective, my goal is to create a nonjudgmental and empathetic healing space for clients to explore and make meaning of their unique experience. In counseling, we work holistically with the body, mind, and spirit in the healing process.

If you are feeling like you're stuck at a certain place in your life or really struggling with behaviors that are not helping you reach your goals, I want to help. You don't have to go through this life alone.

Are you struggling with depression or anxiety? If so, you're not alone. Depression and anxiety can be very challenging conditions to live in. They can make it difficult to cope with everyday life and can lead to feelings of isolation and despair. As a therapist, I want to help my clients discover strength and resiliency within themselves as they navigate life's obstacles.

Peace, my name is Calvin Walker and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor based in Charlotte, NC with a practice that extends to surrounding counties. I am particular sensitive and empathize with individuals facing moments of transition, like a move to a different area, job loss, and break-up. In addition, I have an extensive history or working with individuals coping with trauma, depression, self-doubt, and anxiety. I am genuinely dedicated and equally passionate in wanting to be of service in helping my clients achieve success by finding emotional balance.

It can be a challenge to find your center or balance when everything around you seems to be out of your control. Things are happening so fast and it can be scary. Searching for your true self in a world that adds filters to glamorize everyday life is a struggle. It can be difficult to find the balance between assertiveness, passiveness, honesty and consideration. Therapy is a space that is yours to discover answers to the questions that keep you up at night or cause you to overthink an "awkward" encounter with someone. Therapy is a safe and confidential space to explore who you are; to name, understand and better manage emotions.

In times of uncertainty, it’s important to feel that you have someone that will help and listened to us without judgment, in an inclusive, supportive, and empowerment environment. At Victory Family Counseling, we take pride on helping our clients to tap into their inner strength and aid them to conquer their fears and accomplish their goals one step at a time. We believe that in our worst troublesome times, it is imperative that we reach out and find a positive, safe, inclusive, objective, empathetic, safe space with people that can guide us and help us tap into our inner strengths.

I want to build a positive and trusting client-therapist relationship to help your focus on what your needs, stressors, and/or goals are to help you be the best form of you. We are all unique and are all faced with challenges whether they are big or small. It is important to be the narrator or our lives and together I will help you achieve the balance needed.

Hey there! Welcome to my page :) A little background, I graduated from UNCC with my bachelor’s in psychology in 2018, and more recently in 2022, from the University of Kentucky with my Masters in Social Work. I love all things art and music related and love to bring those to the therapeutic space. We will lean into your strengths and build a positive therapeutic relationship at a pace that you deem appropriate. I look forward to getting to know you and working through the hurdles of life, together.

In life, we are faced with many challenges that test our patience, motivation and even self-confidence. Often we need help to identify issues and develop coping strategies so we can be empowered to take on all obstacles along life’s journey. There is power in seeking help to be your best self which is where therapy comes in.

I am a LCAS, LCMHCA, CSAT-C, CSI and I am a current PhD candidate with Liberty University's Counselor Education and Supervision program. I consider myself to be a seasoned professional with over 14 years of experience focusing on alcohol/drug addiction, sex/porn addiction and mental health concerns. I utilize different forms of psychotherapy for various concerns that may be hindering a person's level of functioning. Currently I only accept private pay. Advantages of private pay include: confidentiality, and avoiding diagnosis on health records. Super bills provided for reimbursement .

I work from a collaborative, non-judgmental and empathetic perspective. We may all live in the same world, but our unique individual experiences shape who we are and how we approach events in our lives. In the counseling process, I strive to create a supportive, trusting and safe therapeutic relationship through which difficult thoughts and feelings related to a person's struggles can be explored, understood, and improved. My goal is to help people gain more acceptance, happiness, peace, or content in life.

My practice includes work with individuals, generally ages 18 and up, and couples. I was a Professor of Psychology at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte for many years, and now am the Executive Director of the Boulder Crest Institute for Posttraumatic Growth (see www.bouldercrest.org). At Boulder Crest we serve veterans and first responders. With my small practice, I make appointments with you myself, and there is no bureaucracy to deal with. I am on many insurance plans. I think you will find that working with me is comfortable and practical, and we start right away to discuss what your concerns are.

Throughout your experience have you faced challenges with identity, equality, and traditions? In life, we face many adversities, as a second-generation American my aim is to provide a safe and inclusive environment for you to be yourself and “have a moment”. I enjoy helping people find their current qualities and use those strengths as steps toward recovery utilizing a strengths-based viewpoint. I utilize trauma-informed techniques to help individuals understand the connection between their thoughts feelings and actions.

My interest and passion for counseling began during my time as a career Air Force soldier / veteran. While serving in the military, I had the pleasure of working with victims of assault and domestic violence. This sparked my interest for serving others through counseling and support. Following my retirement from a 23-year military service career, I went on to earn a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Southern New Hampshire University. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate and a National Certified Counselor.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to view my profile. I have been serving individuals from all walks of life, in all stages of life for over 20 years. West Virginia will always be home, but North Carolina is where I hang my hat. I welcome the opportunity to have a brief consultation with you to see if I can be of service to you or your loved one. I offer both face to face and virtual sessions. I hope to hear from you soon. If I am not the one for you, I hope you find the therapist that is right for you.
