Hello, want to work together on a path to Clarity in 2026? I provide ADHD Support in North Carolina

I provide support to NC residents 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.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Sanford, NC


Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed with life, exhausted, anxious, or depressed? Have you experienced a stressful or traumatic life event? Perhaps you struggle with a chronic illness. Maybe you struggle with a difficult child or teen. Or maybe your partner has been unfaithful. Are you tired of feeling isolated and hopeless? You want- no, you need- things to change, but you don’t where to begin. Asking for help can be one of the most difficulty things to do, but I would be honored to help you discover your inner strength and begin your journey to healing and being who you are meant to be.


I have received training in Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy (IPSRT) for managing bipolar disorders as well as certification as a clinical trauma professional. A nationally certified counselor, I am also a member of LPC Association of NC and the International Association of Trauma Professionals (IATP).


I am passionate about helping people triumph over trauma, learn mindfulness-based practices to reduce stress and manage anxiety, improve self-esteem, understand the relationship among our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors (CBT) and learn to tolerate distress in their lives.

Alicia Battle

Alicia Battle

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Raleigh, NC


I’m Alicia Battle, founder of Battle Mental Health, where healing, clarity, and personal transformation meet. As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina, my mission is to help individuals step into the fullest expression of who they are, using the mind as an instrument for alignment, growth, and powerful change.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Georgia State University and completed my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from North Carolina Central University. My specialty areas include Anxiety, Depression, Breakups, Separation/Divorce, Communication, Couples Counseling, Self-Discovery, Executive Counseling, and navigating unexpected life transitions.

Beyond the therapy room, I am deeply committed to leadership and developing others. One of the most rewarding parts of my role is mentoring professionals, teaching the foundations of a strong and ethical practice, and helping them strengthen both their skills and their confidence. In every leadership capacity I hold, my goal is to help people rise, lead with clarity, and step into the strongest version of themselves.

At the core of my work is a simple belief: your mind is your greatest asset. When guided, strengthened, and understood, it becomes the force that helps you reshape your patterns, elevate your resilience, and create a life rooted in intention and emotional freedom.

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 Burlington

Finding the right therapist in Burlington, NC starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or another concern, look for a licensed provider — such as an LCMHC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist — who has experience in that area. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before you commit.

Burlington and the surrounding Alamance County area have a range of mental health providers, but availability and insurance acceptance can vary. Narrowing your search by the factors that matter most to you — like specialty, session format, or location — can save time. Many providers in the area offer both in-person and virtual sessions, giving you flexibility to fit therapy into your schedule.

Therapy in Burlington can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options exist when you use your in-network benefits. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits your needs and your budget.
