Chantel Hemphill

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I’m a licensed therapist with more than 12 years of experience working with adults in a variety of settings, including inpatient psychiatric care, crisis intervention, and outpatient therapy. I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside people during some of the most difficult seasons of their lives, whether they’re experiencing anxiety, depression, a major life transition, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the pressure of trying to hold everything together.

I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest without worrying about being judged. My goal is to create an environment where you feel comfortable being yourself while we work together to better understand what’s getting in the way and identify meaningful steps forward. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, burnout, and the emotional weight that can come from being the dependable one for everyone else or holding yourself to incredibly high standards.

I work primarily with Christian women who feel overwhelmed by the demands of everyday life—especially those navigating chronic health challenges alongside anxiety, depression, burnout, or grief. You may feel like taking care of your health, your responsibilities, your relationships, and your faith has become a full-time job, and you're tired of always feeling behind.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina with specialized training in Spiritually Integrated Psychotherapy. I believe counseling can be a place where your faith is welcomed rather than set aside. Together, we can work toward greater peace with God, yourself, others, and the life you’re living.

I specialize in the treatment of adult women who have ADHD.

Women and girls are shamed, gaslit and neglected by many aspects of the medical system. The ability required to recognize and adequately treat ADHD in women requires a specialized knowledge of the disorder, but many healthcare providers are still missing the mark — and the client ends up suffering needlessly.

I am actively working to help women with ADHD learn about, and master, their symptoms using an individualized approach that creates new possibilities for thriving with ADHD, and paves the path toward recovery from the lifetime of shame caused by this misunderstood condition.

I work with people who are female-identifying or nonbinary, ages 18 and up, and I have special interest in Women’s Issues. I am also neurodivergent-affirming, disability-affirming, and proudly Queer-Allied.

ADHD has been, is, and will be present for the lifetime of the person. It does not have a “cure,” but it can effectively be treated. One does not “grow out of it,” despite what you may have been told. One cannot simply ignore it or choose to pretend it’s not real. But we can educate ourselves about it, learn how to work with it and thrive.

Bottom line, ADHD is often a diagnosis that does not get a lot of attention (hah!). People struggle from the anxiety and depression that results from the unmanaged symptoms of ADHD, and that’s what typically brings them to seek out therapy or medication. Therapy aims to alleviate that depression and anxiety with strong research-based methods, but you still have unchecked and unaddressed ADHD. If we don’t examine specifically how your particular version of ADHD shows up, it can end up being overlooked and ignored, but ignoring something doesn’t mean it’s gone.

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 Charlotte

Searching for therapists in Charlotte starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Charlotte has therapists across neighborhoods like Uptown, South End, NoDa, Plaza Midwood, and nearby areas, with experience in concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and details about who they typically work with. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their style, what sessions may look like, and whether their experience fits your needs.

In a large metro area like Charlotte, having many options can make the search feel harder to sort through. It helps to narrow by practical fit first: appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, in-person or virtual session format, and location if you prefer an office near work, home, or transit. Some people prefer meeting in a physical office, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for details about communication style, session structure, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Therapy in Charlotte can be expensive without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, confirm your benefits, and see an estimated cost before you book. You can filter by preferences, compare therapist profiles, and choose virtual or in-person care, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to take new patients.

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