Colleen Coombs

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I love working with people and helping them "grow" through the things of life that they "go" through. A quote that I love to share with clients and live by personally is to remember not to focus on your purpose but to live your life purposely. As a military social worker my background is specific to first responders, but most importantly individuals that are learning their new "normal" after traumatic life events that have unexpectedly shaped them.

Ashley Eldridge

Therapist

Virtual • Wilmington, NC


I approach sessions as an experienced professional and a real person. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as your full, uncensored self—say the hard things, the messy things, even the things you’re not sure how to put into words—and still feel accepted, heard, and supported. Many people reach out to me feeling overwhelmed by everyday stress, big world events, or the sense that things keep changing without much warning. It can feel like there’s no escape from stress, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Therapy can be a place to slow down, breathe, share humor, & talk things through with someone who’s really listening. My career spans 20+ years in mental health, addiction treatment, and disability services.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Asheville

Finding ADHD therapists in Asheville starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapy can help with executive function, time management, organization, focus, emotional regulation, and related concerns like anxiety or depression. Some people look for therapeutic support, such as cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD or skills-based counseling, while others may also need medication management from a psychiatrist. Adult ADHD and pediatric ADHD can call for different experience, so review each therapist’s listed specialties, training, and approach before booking.

Asheville has a smaller local therapist market than larger North Carolina cities, so virtual appointments can expand your options while still giving you access to therapists licensed in your state. As you compare ADHD counseling options, look at appointment availability, whether the therapist offers in-person or virtual sessions, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Provider bios can also help you understand how a therapist works with ADHD, including whether they support adults, children, teens, women, or people with co-occurring concerns like anxiety and depression.

Therapy in Asheville can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you find ADHD therapists in Asheville who are accepting new patients and match your preferences. You can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your plan and review available options. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated costs, compare therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
