Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Apex, NC covered by Cigna

I believe therapy should be a place where you don’t have to have it all together. Many of my clients are high-achieving professionals who are used to being the “strong one” for everyone else, but privately struggle with relationships, boundaries, confidence, or life transitions. I strive to create a warm, collaborative space where you can show up authentically, gain insight into patterns that no longer serve you, and build healthier relationships with yourself and others. I especially enjoy working with Black women and LGBTQ+ adults and strive to create an affirming, culturally responsive space where clients can show up fully as themselves.

I have spent my career supporting clients through many life challenges and transitions. For the past two decades, I have been privileged to support patients and families on their journeys through chronic illness and end of life decision making. In addition I have helped many clients with depression, anxiety, grief/loss, health concerns, caregiver burden, relationship issues, and communication challenges.

I have extensive experience in numerous enhanced mental health services as well as being an outpatient telehealth provider. I have experience working with the military, children/adolescents, and adults of all ages.

Some areas I specialize in treating are: anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, stress, and life transitions to name a few.

Are you navigating the unique challenges of ADHD or an Autism Spectrum Disorder? Mekayla Boswell is a dedicated Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with experience in supporting neurodivergent adults, and is currently accepting new clients for telehealth therapy at Lifeologie Counseling Raleigh.

I have devoted extra time to Impact Therapy, which provides the client with immediate support and constant feedback. We don't waste time, and client wellbeing is the focus of each session. I've also completed Level II NARM training for clients with severe/complex trauma, and I look forward to using these models to provide the best possible outcome.

Welcome and thanks for visiting! I am a licensed clinical social worker with a BSW from NC A&T and an MSW from Fayetteville State University. I have a passion for maternal health and over a decade of experience in this field. I love what I do and I look forward to connecting with you.

I am offering immediate appointment slots and flexible rates during this difficult time. Are you struggling with anxiety and depression due to COVID-19? Do you feel uncertain about how to move forward during this difficult time? You may feel trapped or hopeless, but I can help you with proven coping skills and by working with you to create a new perspective. My life experience provides a solid foundation upon which I have built my techniques and interventions. In addition to my work with adults, I have experience with teens and young adults, and enjoy connecting with them and helping them navigate life and family challenges.

I spent 25 years in corporate America before earning my master's degree in professional counseling. This experience has given me insight into the stresses in the workplace. Having been a long time sufferer of anxiety, I can empathize with the weight of this emotion while also sharing techniques that have helped me live a better, more enjoyable life.

We are living in uncertain times and COVID fatigue has made daily life even more difficult to manage. It can feel overwhelming, but I will work with you to re-train your brain so that your automatic thought patterns are encouraging instead of fearful.
