I thought that I chose this profession; as it turns out, this profession chose me. I was meant to be a social worker. As a child, I remember thinking that there was a reason why people behaved a certain way and I wanted to know the root cause of that particular behavior. I have consistently met people where they are. I have worked with a diverse population of varying socioeconomic backgrounds and ages.

Virtual • Cornelius, NC


Hello! I’m Jullee Capshaw, MA, LCMHC (she/her/hers). I began working in the mental health field in 2018 at a psychiatric hospital in Atlanta, GA, where I developed a strong foundation in supporting individuals through complex challenges. I later worked as a Registered Behavior Technician at an autism behavioral clinic, providing ABA therapy to children and their families.

I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of North Georgia and my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from UNC Charlotte. During graduate school, I completed an internship at Davidson College while continuing my work with children with autism.

I am now a fully licensed counselor and am grateful to have my own practice, where I strive to create a supportive, compassionate space for clients to grow and heal.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Charlotte, NC

Searching for family therapists in Charlotte starts with finding someone trained to support the relationships and patterns within a family, not just one person. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, sibling conflict, mother-daughter concerns, and communication breakdowns across generations. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family systems, attachment-based family therapy, play therapy, or other approaches that match what your family wants to work on.

Charlotte has many counselors across neighborhoods like Uptown, South End, Dilworth, NoDa, and Ballantyne, which can make it harder to narrow your options. Decide whether in-person sessions near home, school, or work make sense, or whether virtual appointments offer a better fit for multiple schedules. Family therapy sessions may include the full family, smaller groups, or individual members at different times, so it helps to review therapist bios for session structure, availability, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Therapy in Charlotte can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find family therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans. You can browse profiles, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
