I am a board-certified psychiatrist in private practice. I work mainly through insight-oriented psychotherapy, but I also offer diagnostic evaluations and prescribing services. Patients see me for a variety of concerns around self-esteem, trauma, attachment, dependency, boundaries, self-criticism, and childhood abuse/neglect. These issues may lead to shame, guilt, anxiety, irritability, mood swings, perfectionism, self-loathing, or repeated conflicts with family, colleagues, or romantic partners. Therapy is a chance to think carefully together about your past and present experiences to deepen your insight into your situation. As we come to understand your inner world, I hope you will gradually notice a greater sense of flexibility, freedom, and openness to life's many joys and challenges. As a psychiatrist, I am happy to help with diagnostic clarification and medical treatment of most general psychiatric conditions including mood and anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, ADHD, and others. While medications alone often fail to address the deeper conflicts and traumas that cause our symptoms, a thoughtful approach to prescribing can help build a foundation for the personal work that leads to lasting change. I have special experience working with university students and early career professionals in medicine, academia, law, tech, and the arts. I enjoy working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, and I welcome and affirm those who may identify as LGBTQIA+ or neurodivergent.

Hi! My name is Karin and I am a licensed mental health counselor. I work with many different presenting concerns and help students tackle any difficulties that come up in their everyday life. In working together, my intention is and will always be to foster an environment that is filled with safety and trust, as well as void of judgment. Being vulnerable can be very difficult on its own, and it’s essential to me to create a space where vulnerability does not come with any more obstacles or barriers. I understand how hard it can be to talk about our problems and the issues we struggle with on a daily basis, and it’s important to me to create an environment where it is easier to talk about what’s going on. I deeply enjoy working with clients from all backgrounds and cultures and having the privilege to provide support along the way. I would love to meet you. Please reach out.

Hi there! I’m Koketta Shelton, and I’m a therapist dedicated to supporting college students like you as you navigate the unique challenges of this exciting—but often overwhelming—time in your life. College is a period of transition, growth, and self-discovery. Along the way, you might face stress, anxiety, relationship issues, academic pressures, or just feel lost at times.

How I Can Help: • Stress and Anxiety Management: We’ll work on practical strategies to manage academic pressure, social anxiety, and life stressors. • Building Confidence and Self-Esteem: Together, we can explore ways to boost your self-confidence and develop a stronger sense of self. • Managing Relationships: Whether it’s friendships, romantic relationships, or family dynamics, we can discuss how to navigate and improve your connections with others. • Self-Discovery: College is often a time of figuring out who you are and what you want. Therapy can help you explore your identity, values, and goals. Therapy isn’t just for people in crisis—it’s for anyone who wants to understand themselves better and live a more balanced, fulfilling life. No matter what you’re dealing with, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’m here to listen and support you every step of the way. Feel free to reach out and set up a session. I look forward to getting to know you and working together!

You deserve to live a life that makes you feel excited to wake up every morning. It's time to tell anxiety, stress, angst, fear, self-doubt, and low self-esteem that it's time to kick rocks. If you are riddled with anxiety due to biological or environmental causes, or if you have experienced significant traumatic events, I am here to help you. The stress of the past plus the fast paced nature of today's society makes navigating issues relating to your family, job, school, health, etc. completely overwhelming. This does not have to be the case. It's time to let go of the grip that emotional and psychological pain has on you. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of North Carolina with 6+ years experience as a mental health therapist and 10+ years experience working in the mental health field. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and Mindfulness based strategies to reduce elevated states of stress. If you are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, low confidence, panic symptoms, social anxiety, relationship issues, or trauma related symptoms you are not alone in this. I believe in creating an environment that is safe, non-judgmental, and nurturing.

I work with primarily LGBTQIA+ community. I am very down to earth, non judgmental and integrate humor in my sessions because therapy doesn't always have to be "serious". I feel honored to help people with their therapy journey and make sure everyone feels safe and accepted.

Hi, my name is Rachel Merritt. I am currently a Licensed Clinical Social Work Associate. I have experience working with adolescents who have been diagnosed with mental illness or substance use and are a part of the juvenile justice system. My area of focus has been working with youth in individual therapy, working with families in family therapy, working with couples through relationships difficulties and intimacy issues and working with groups in the treatment of trauma. My area of training is in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to treat disorders like depression and anxiety. My areas of interest and specialty are Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I love working with all populations because everyone's experience is as different and unique as they are. I offer in-person and virtual sessions. My goal is to help people gain a new perspective and understanding about their life. I teach people to advocate for themselves while giving them the skills needed to heal through therapeutic work. Let's work together to reach your personal goals and by utilizing your own strengths to become a better version of yourself.

BASE Cognitive Behavioral is a specialist practice that focuses on evidence based treatment for a range of mental health needs. In my own approach, I have seen time and time again that each person is doing the very best they can to survive difficult life experiences. We each develop ways of coping with our world, but often get caught up in our own internal struggle to push away feelings of depression, anxiety, or self-doubt. My passion is helping people drop this “struggle” with themselves through a groundwork of validation, empathy, and mindful awareness. It is my hope that my clients and I can work through painful emotions, towards understanding what brings each person meaning and move towards valued living. I find that a framework of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and various coping skills can support my client in developing a flexible range of ways to approach difficult emotions and life situations. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, and eating disorders.

Our vision is to combat the negative stigma of mental illness by promoting holistic health within our community.

Connection to self and others is my priority. If you feel past events in relationships with family, friends, or partners have created fear and insecurity in your current relationships, or you notice that you don't feel like yourself due to anxiety or depression that may be connected to difficult events in your life, we can explore ways to move through these events and feel ready to grow and develop your personal resilience as well as strengthen your ability to trust and connect with others.
