Hi! My name is Kathryn Price, and I specialize in working with clients that have experienced trauma, and disordered eating habits and/or negative body image. I also have experience in working with a variety of mental health disorders and substance use. I graduated with my Masters degree in Clinical Counseling, with an emphasis in Addictions in 2018 from East Carolina University, and have over 8 years of education and counseling experience in a variety of professional settings.
I believe that humans should ideally be unfolding and growing throughout their lifetime. This means embracing change, especially when life gets difficult and we feel stuck, dissatisfied, or overwhelmed. Change is a journey with ups and downs. Personally, I believe we all struggle with challenges at different times in our life and it's the courageous who seek help.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Charlotte
Finding addiction therapists in Charlotte starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, drug use, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and related concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your situation. Some therapists use motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with medication-assisted care when a prescriber is part of your care team.
Charlotte has many therapy options across neighborhoods and nearby areas, which can make it harder to narrow your search. Start with the basics: whether you want in-person appointments or virtual sessions, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether their schedule fits yours. Recovery can involve changes over time, so it also helps to look for a therapist whose bio reflects a nonjudgmental style and experience with substance use care. Reading profiles before booking can give you a clearer sense of each therapist’s approach, structure, and communication style.
Addiction therapy in Charlotte can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, confirm your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before your first session. You can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
