Sometimes life doesn't just change, it collapses: divorce, betrayal, a custody conflict, or a future that looks nothing like what you planned. I'm Allyn Latorre, a licensed clinical social worker who has spent over a decade helping adults rebuild after exactly this kind of disruption. My approach is direct, practical, and trauma-informed. You don't need to have it figured out before reaching out; most people call me in the middle of something overwhelming, and that's exactly the right time to start.
I’m a licensed therapist who specializes in working with anxious overthinkers, people-pleasers, perfectionists, and caregivers who are exhausted from trying to hold everything together. Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable people who look “high-functioning” on the outside but feel overwhelmed, self-critical, or emotionally drained on the inside.
Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a school counselor, which deeply shaped how I approach mental health, relationships, and family systems. I also bring lived experience as a parent into my work, especially when supporting clients who are navigating stress, burnout, and the emotional demands of raising children.
I help people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, self-doubt, trauma, or major life changes find steadiness again. My clients are often caring, capable people who feel stuck in survival mode—wanting peace but unsure how to get there. Together, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what’s been weighing on you, and rebuild a sense of ease and confidence. We will also look back at how early life experiences shaped the way you see yourself and others, so we can shift old beliefs and habits that no longer serve you. My style is warm, honest, and collaborative—you’ll never have to face your struggles alone.
I guide people to make sense of what’s going on inside—the racing thoughts, the heaviness, the tension that lives in the body, and the patterns that keep repeating—and turn that insight into real change. We’ll build tools to calm your mind, regulate emotions, and set boundaries that actually stick.
With over 25 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating grief and loss, life transitions, chronic illness, trauma (including first responders), aging-related concerns, and members of the agricultural and farming communities.
I provide telehealth services across multiple states, I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.
I've been practicing in the mental health field for more than 4 years now. I am trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and love using it with many different clients. I've found that DBT has also helped me on a personal level.
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.
Hello, and welcome. My name is Lina Roe and I have over 30 years of experience in the field of social work, helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, understanding, and respect. I have been a licensed therapist in North Carolina for the past 3 years.
I believe that every person deserves to be heard, valued, and supported. My approach is compassionate, open-minded, and nonjudgmental, creating a safe space where you can openly share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I strive to meet you where you are, offering empathy, validation, encouragement, and practical tools to help you move toward your goals.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, grief, stress, or simply feeling overwhelmed, I am committed to walking alongside you on your journey. Together, we'll build on your strengths, explore solutions, and work toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.
Seeking therapy is a courageous step, and finding the right therapist is an important part of that process. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, understood, and empowered as we work together to improve your well-being and create the life you want.
I look forward to the opportunity to support you on your journey toward healing, growth, and resilience.
I’m Angie, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I work primarily with adult women navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, people-pleasing, perinatal concerns, and life transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to you, drawing from EMDR, cognitive behavioral therapy, and body-based awareness. Together, we’ll make sense of what feels heavy, strengthen your connection with yourself, and help you move forward with greater clarity and self-compassion.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Durham
Searching for therapists in Durham starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want to work on. Therapists may support people living with anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare Durham therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and populations served. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they offer approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Durham has a range of therapy options across neighborhoods near Duke University, downtown Durham, Southpoint, and surrounding areas, with both in-person and virtual appointments available. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others choose virtual care for more scheduling flexibility. To narrow your search, review whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
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 see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you find Durham therapists who match your preferences, and you can browse profiles to compare insurance information, availability, and booking options when you’re ready.
