Gregory Connuck

Gregory Connuck

Therapist

In-person • 6.5 mi away • Chapel Hill, NC


My name is Greg, and I'm an LCSW and psychoanalytic candidate at the Psychoanalytic Center of the Carolinas. Originally from New York, I studied History of the Middle East and North Africa at Oberlin College before moving to Asheville, North Carolina. For several years, I worked doing direct care for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, as well as in-home care for older adults in the general population. While caring for my clients in these settings, I became interested in psychoanalysis as a way to more thoroughly understand their experiences. I then attended the Social Work program at Western Carolina University, where I specialized in the treatment of substance use disorders, working at an intensive outpatient program and a state treatment center offering affordable detoxification and acute care. After graduating, I moved to the Triangle to pursue psychoanalytic training, and am now in clinical practice in Chapel Hill.

Dr. Jacqueline Flowers

Psychologist

Virtual & in-person • 6.8 mi away • Durham, NC


I am a licensed psychologist providing services across the lifespan, although my training has provided me with a strong understanding of child and adolescent development, school based difficulties, and learning differences. I completed my doctorate in School Psychology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and my pre-doctoral clinical internship at the Carolina Institute for Developmental Disabilities (CIDD). My master’s degree was completed in Counseling & Guidance at New York University. I specialize in treating children and teens with neurodevelopmental disabilities, including ADHD and autism.


My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, flexible, and informed by evidence-based practices. I provide individual psychotherapy for children and adolescents to address a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, stress-related difficulties, academic challenges, emotional difficulties, behavioral challenges, and relationship challenges.


Together, we'll consider what isn’t working and develop insights for how to change. I combine multiple treatment techniques, including CBT, DBT, and other behavioral/solution-focused approaches. I would be happy to speak with you about ways we may be able to work together to meet your needs. You are welcome to call or email to set up an initial consultation.

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Durham

Finding ADHD therapists in Durham starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation strategies, and support for related concerns like anxiety, depression, sleep issues, or school and work stress. Psychiatrists can provide medication management, and some people use therapy, medication management, or both. Adult ADHD and pediatric ADHD can also involve different experience, so look for a therapist whose bio lists ADHD, your age group, and the type of support you want.

Durham has a range of mental health care options, from offices near downtown and Duke to virtual appointments that can fit around work, school, or caregiving schedules. If you search for an ADHD specialist near me, adult ADHD specialist near me, or ADHD evaluation near me, consider practical fit along with specialty. Check whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that work for you, and has experience with ADHD and co-occurring concerns like anxiety or depression. Reading bios can help you compare approach, session structure, and communication style before you book.

Therapy in Durham can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and seeing your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking can make the next step clearer. Headway helps you search for Durham therapists who list ADHD as a focus, review detailed profiles, confirm insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
