Ruth Eslinger

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I know how hard it is to learn to talk about difficult things. That made me want to help others learn to do the same. I started by volunteering at rape crisis and domestic violence shelters. When I was at these places I did outreach in the community and ran support groups for both. For a time, I took rape crisis hospital calls to support people who had come in for sexual assault exams. This work that taught me to be comfortable talking about anything, at any time, with anyone. I have worked with all types of individuals from ages 12 and up. My first Masters was an intensive dive into Human Rights. My second Masters was in Counseling so I could work with individuals to help them beyond the crisis moments. My passion is to help people progress towards healing.

Therapist

I was drawn into this profession from an early age, always curious about people, what they do, how they think, how they go about solving problems or getting stuck in them. Even when we do things well, we stumble over life's hurdles. It can feel overwhelming trying to find a way out or up or back. A listening heart and a supportive hand can be a big help finding our way again. With over 40 years of experience, I have worked with a wide range of people and concerns.

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.
