Gregory Connuck

Gregory Connuck

Therapist

In-person • 18 mi away • Chapel Hill, NC


My name is Greg, and I'm an LCSW and psychoanalytic candidate at the Psychoanalytic Center of the Carolinas. Originally from New York, I studied History of the Middle East and North Africa at Oberlin College before moving to Asheville, North Carolina. For several years, I worked doing direct care for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, as well as in-home care for older adults in the general population. While caring for my clients in these settings, I became interested in psychoanalysis as a way to more thoroughly understand their experiences. I then attended the Social Work program at Western Carolina University, where I specialized in the treatment of substance use disorders, working at an intensive outpatient program and a state treatment center offering affordable detoxification and acute care. After graduating, I moved to the Triangle to pursue psychoanalytic training, and am now in clinical practice in Chapel Hill.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 18 mi away • Carrboro, NC


I earned my Master of Social Work from UNC–Chapel Hill in 1999 and have more than 25 years of experience helping adults and families navigate emotional distress, relationship difficulties, and major life challenges. My background includes work as a psychotherapist and child welfare social worker.

I bring experience, steadiness, and genuine curiosity to my work. I am interested not only in what people are struggling with, but in how they came to experience themselves and their lives in the ways they do.

Through Headway, I provide insurance-based therapy to individual adults only. I do not see couples through insurance.

Hello, want to work together on a path to Clarity in 2026? I provide ADHD Support in North Carolina through telehealth or in-person visits at our Pittsboro office in the Chatham Wellness Collective. (South of Chapel Hill)

A Streamlined Approach to ADHD Care. Navigating the ADHD assessment and treatment process can be frustrating and expensive. Many individuals face delays, expensive testing fees, and additional requirements, such as a psychological evaluation and/or a doctor’s note or EKG, just to receive care. Others are seen by telehealth only providers who can't prescribe stimulants and who tell you one has to start off on Wellbutrin or Strattera (non stimulants). That is terrible care. At our clinic, we prioritize efficiency and accessibility.

We believe in low doses of medication and finding your perfect dose to balance attention with mood. Most of our ADHD patients are on low dosing.

My approach to treatment is collaborative, forward-thinking, and tailored to your unique needs. I strive to create a warm, inviting atmosphere where you can feel comfortable discussing your challenges.

State Employees- Headway is part of a program that makes most visit have only a $10 copay.

Billing transparancy- Most new patient visits are billed a 99204 or 99205 and most follow-ups are 99214's. I do NOT bill therapy add on codes to new patient visits. Sometimes Headway will estimate your visit with a therapy code ad on and this makes it $300+. New visits are never more that $175. I sometimes bill add on therapy codes to follow ups (90833) IF its part of treatment plan. I won't surprise you. Please ask any provider you pick if they use add on codes- you deserve to know.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Apex

Searching for therapists in Apex starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare therapists, look for training, specialties, and approaches that match what you want to address. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families.

Apex has a growing mental health care community, but local appointment options may vary by schedule, office location, and specialty. Virtual therapy can help expand your search beyond nearby offices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in North Carolina. As you narrow your options, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand their communication style and what a first session may be like.

Therapy in Apex can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, see estimated costs before booking, and choose from in-person or virtual appointments. You can review profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
