100% virtual telehealth counseling provided! Currently accepting clients who are physically located in Massachusetts, North Carolina, Arizona, or Oregon. (I am unable to see clients residing in Virginia at this time. If you’re located in one of the other states, I welcome the chance to work with you.)

I work with adults who have noticed their use of substances becoming disruptive to their life. They want to change their patterns and habits before other areas are affected. My approach is practical and evidence-based. Understanding that changing habits can be deeply challenging, I provide a safe, straightforward place where sustainable habits can be built, without judgment.

I've worked across hospital, hospice, palliative care, dementia care, and community settings, and that breadth has taught me that every person's story is deeply unique.

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 Chapel Hill

Searching for therapists in Chapel Hill starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, trauma, or work stress. As you compare Chapel Hill therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience with your concerns. A therapist’s bio can help you understand how they work, what sessions may feel like, and whether their approach matches what you’re looking for.

Chapel Hill is a smaller city, so the number of nearby in-person therapists may vary by location, schedule, and specialty. If you are also open to virtual care, you may see more options across North Carolina while still working with a licensed therapist. You can narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and practical details like scheduling.

Therapy in Chapel Hill can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, check your insurance, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from available virtual or in-person appointments. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
