Welcome! I'm so excited that you're here! I am a queer cisgender counselor based in Durham, NC, offering individual and couples therapy both in-person and virtually. Couples and partnerships that want to deepen their intimate dynamics & explore alternative relationship styles are my ideal clients. I enjoy work focused on improving communication in partnerships to help couples deepen their connection and effectiveness in sharing. I work with individuals with a variety of concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, and the effects of growing up in a dysfunctional family.

I'm a therapist because I value complexity. We each have our own vision for a life that feels vibrant, authentic, and fulfilling. As your therapist, it's my job to walk with you through the process of learning about yourself, growing, and getting more of what you want out of life. I work primarily with queer and trans people age 16 and older but offer individual and relationship therapy services to clients of all backgrounds. I also offer autism and ADHD assessments for adolescents and adults.

My name is Savannah Corey (she/her) and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I utilize a person-centered approach to meet clients where they are, and believe we are the expert in our own lives. Therapy should be a place where you feel really safe to talk about anything, and I believe that the relationship between a therapist and client is a partnership where all people involved strive to reach the same goals. As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I help clients connect thoughts, feelings, or behaviors to "stuck points" in thoughts processes so that negative thoughts can be reframed.

We are all on a journey. Sometimes our path presents us with challenges that we find difficult to overcome without help. Do you feel stuck? Need to better understand negative patterns in your life? Are you having difficulty with an important relationship? The relationship you form with a therapist can help you navigate your path with strategies and tools to overcome life’s challenges. Our focus, in therapy, is to help you expand and strengthen your resources by learning effective coping strategies. We work with adults and adolescents struggling with trauma, anxiety, career transitions, substance abuse, and relationship problems.

My passion centers on the ways in which early relationships, life experiences and cultural contexts shape our worldviews and impact our choices, coping and performance. I also focus on the interplay between the mind and the physical body, and the ways we can use this connection to increase well-being and overall functioning. Over the past 15 years I have worked in various academic medical institutions and hospitals (UCLA, CHLA), using research-based interventions to guide individuals (children, youth and adults), couples and families in working towards agency, personal growth, positive change, insight, and adaptation to life events.

Hello, I am Delia, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker experienced in anxiety, depression, grief counseling and trauma. Above everything else, I believe that everybody, everywhere, deserves to live a happy and healthy life. A life beyond the grips of anxiety, tortures of depression, and trauma. A life full of productivity and filled with laughter. When this is not so, as often is the case in our lives, I am always driven by compassion to help the individual, whether a friend or a stranger, carry the burden. This is my passion and my life’s mission.

As a group practice we are honored to provide Mental Health and Substance Abuse Recovery Services with a Christ centered worldview, because it takes Faith and Courage to believe your life can be transformed! The basis of our counseling perspective is a spiritual one and is first mentioned in Leviticus 19:18 of the Bible; it tells us to "love thy neighbor as thy self". This principle is the basis for our counseling perspective. With this frame-work, it is our desire to improve one's Biological, Psychological, Social and Spiritual functioning through partnership, as individuals navigate life's challenges.

I recognize each person as an individual with unique strengths, values and desires. As a part of the therapeutic process, I encourage people to identify and reflect on their own values and to improve their practice of making mindful choices based on those values. People often turn to therapy because they feel overwhelmed, alone, or disconnected. My hope for people receiving therapy is that they will experience a restoration of calm, a feeling of connectedness, and a return to a sense of normalcy. I concentrate on improving people's self-efficacy, the belief that one is able and capable.

**Practice has immediate openings for new clients**. When was the last time you checked in with you? I’m not talking about your children, partner, your friends, your colleagues, but I’m talking about you.

Are you constantly thinking that there has to be more, but you just need help trying to figure it all out? I am here to assist you. My job is to help move you away from the things that no longer work, perhaps they never did, and towards a more ideal way of being.

My goal is to help individuals and couples to create effective, satisfying transitions in their lives. I believe we all have inherent strengths that we can tap into to meet our goals and get through the difficult times we experience. It can be helpful to work with someone to identify and work through the barriers that exist between our current situation and where we would like to end up in life.
