For 18 years, I have worked alongside children and adults navigating some of life's hardest

moments: anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, and more. I believe that when you

invest in your mental health, you gain more control over your own life, and that is something

worth working toward together. I am dually licensed in both North Carolina and South

Carolina, which means I bring a depth of clinical experience across many settings. Using a

blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Therapy, I meet you where

you are and help you build toward where you want to be.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Durham, NC

Looking for couples therapists in Durham starts with identifying what you want to work on together. Couples therapy and couples counseling can support partners navigating communication challenges, conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, parenting disagreements, or major life transitions. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so it helps to look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, in their bios.

In a mid-sized city like Durham, you may find both local office options and virtual appointments that make scheduling easier for both partners. The right fit often depends on practical details, including appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether the session format works for both schedules. As you compare Durham couples counseling options, read each therapist’s profile for clues about how they structure sessions, how they describe their communication style, and whether they offer a brief consultation to assess fit before booking.

Marriage counseling in Durham, NC can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you compare couples therapists in Durham who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs after entering your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
