Being here for you during your most vulnerable moments is truly a gift to me. I feel honored to listen and hold space for you so that you can move through whatever is bothering you. My hope is to help you realize your full potential in a space of non-judgment, comfort and healing.

I earned my Masters Degree in Social Work from the University of Georgia. From there I started working with Veterans at the VA, which I have been doing for the past 15 years. I specialize in trauma informed care, strengths based therapy and solution oriented care.

Ragine George

Ragine George

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


My name is Ragine George, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in North Carolina. I work with adults who are ready to make a real change. I take an integrative approach to therapy, drawing on cognitive-behavioral techniques, exposure-based methods, and trauma-informed care. My goal is to help you build practical skills you can use between sessions. Therapy should feel productive. Each session, I want you to leave with something concrete: a new way of thinking about a problem, a tool to manage a difficult moment, or a clearer sense of what you are working toward. My background includes both outpatient counseling and crisis work, which has given me a broad clinical foundation. I am comfortable sitting with difficult emotions and helping clients move through them at their own pace. At the same time, I stay goal-oriented. I work best with clients who want both structure and compassion. I specialize in depression, anxiety, self-esteem, family concerns and panic disorders. I use exposure therapy with clients whose anxiety has taken over their daily life, and I bring a culturally informed lens to every session. I offer telehealth sessions exclusively, which means you can access care from wherever you are in North Carolina. Whether you have been managing something for years or a situation recently became overwhelming, I want to help you find a path forward. I look forward to seeing if we are a good fit.

NOW ACCEPTING AND SERVING CHILDREN!! Have you ever felt lost or lonely while in a familiar or crowed place? Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations. I first developed a passion for therapy when I hit a roadblock in my own life and was struggling to move past it. I specialize in helping people identify and achieve their personal goals by coping with the issues that are causing them distress, anxiety, and discomfort.


Unfortunately, life doesn't always allow us to be the best version of ourselves. With my help, you'll learn about acceptance and how to exert your power of choice over whatever life may throw at you. I take great pride in the progress and success of my clients.


My job is to give you the tools and techniques to achieve a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle. After several sessions, you will become well-versed at handling issues whenever and wherever they arise. Let's work together to put your life back in focus. I look forward to working with you.
