Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Fayetteville, NC covered by Aetna

Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or simply stuck—even though you’re doing your best to keep everything together? Maybe you’ve been carrying stress for so long that you no longer remember what it feels like to truly relax. Perhaps your thoughts won’t quiet down, your emotions feel difficult to manage, or experiences from the past continue to affect how you feel, think, and connect with others.

You may be navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, grief, a major life transition, or ongoing stress. You may struggle with setting boundaries, communicating your needs, managing emotions, rebuilding trust, or finding your confidence and sense of direction. Sometimes, there isn’t one specific problem—you simply know that something doesn’t feel right anymore and you want to understand why.

You might be the person everyone depends on—the one who takes care of everyone else while quietly struggling inside. You may have become so accustomed to pushing through that asking for help feels uncomfortable. Or perhaps the coping strategies that once worked no longer seem to be enough.

Whatever brought you here, you don’t have to figure it all out alone.

Therapy can provide a safe, supportive space to slow down, feel heard, and make sense of what you’ve been carrying. Together, we can explore what may be keeping you stuck, understand patterns that affect your well-being and relationships, and develop practical tools to help you feel more grounded, confident, and in control.

You deserve support—not because you are weak, but because you have been carrying a lot. Reaching out for help can be the first step toward healing, growth, and feeling like yourself again.

Hello! My name is Ashya Kennedy. I have been a licensed counselor since 2019. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, LGBTQ+ issues, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. I work primarily with older adolescents and adults in their 20s and 30s. My practice is called Inner Guidance Counseling because I believe that everything you have and need is within you and it's my job to hold space for you to connect with and follow your inner guidance.

I am a bilingual English/Spanish therapist working with individuals, adolescents, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina, and a National Certified Counselor (NCC).

I earned my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have worked in private practice, community mental health, school-based settings, and with individuals and families facing a wide range of life challenges.

My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma and PTSD, relationship and family difficulties, ADHD, life transitions, emotional regulation, parenting concerns, and men's issues. I also have extensive experience working with adolescents and couples, including individuals navigating cultural differences, major life changes, and difficult relationship patterns.

As an Argentinian-American and bilingual clinician, I also understand how culture, family expectations, immigration experiences, and different ways of communicating can influence relationships and emotional well-being.

Hi, I'm Amanda! I know it can be tough looking for a new therapist, and I hope you find someone you connect with! I may be the right fit if you're looking for someone who: listens and engages with you, creates a space where you can be yourself, validates but also challenges at times, and recognizes the impact of the state of the world, societal expectations, & trauma on your mental health.

I’m Bryana, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in practical, results‐focused therapy for adults navigating anxiety, trauma, stress, and major life transitions. I’m certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), which allows me to provide structured, evidence‐based support for clients who want clear guidance and meaningful change.
