Alicia Battle

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Raleigh, NC


I’m Alicia Battle, founder of Battle Mental Health, where healing, clarity, and personal transformation meet. As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina, my mission is to help individuals step into the fullest expression of who they are, using the mind as an instrument for alignment, growth, and powerful change.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Georgia State University and completed my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from North Carolina Central University. My specialty areas include Anxiety, Depression, Breakups, Separation/Divorce, Communication, Couples Counseling, Self-Discovery, Executive Counseling, and navigating unexpected life transitions.

Beyond the therapy room, I am deeply committed to leadership and developing others. One of the most rewarding parts of my role is mentoring professionals, teaching the foundations of a strong and ethical practice, and helping them strengthen both their skills and their confidence. In every leadership capacity I hold, my goal is to help people rise, lead with clarity, and step into the strongest version of themselves.

At the core of my work is a simple belief: your mind is your greatest asset. When guided, strengthened, and understood, it becomes the force that helps you reshape your patterns, elevate your resilience, and create a life rooted in intention and emotional freedom.

Dr. Jamie Johnson

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I bring over 11 years of behavioral health leadership experience, including senior clinical executive roles overseeing adolescent and family treatment programs, alongside my work as a psychotherapist and clinical supervisor. I’m dually licensed in California and North Carolina, a BBS-Approved Clinical Supervisor, and an adjunct professor at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, where I help train the next generation of clinicians.

My clinical approach is grounded in Family Consciousness, a framework I developed through my doctoral research to help individuals and families deepen closeness, heal relational wounds, and reconnect with their sense of purpose and identity. I work with individuals and families navigating life transitions, relationship strain, identity development, and the search for greater self-understanding and connection.

I believe therapy works best as a collaborative, honest, and deeply human process. Whether you’re working through a specific challenge or simply want to feel more like yourself again, I’m here to walk alongside you with clinical expertise and genuine care.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Fayetteville

Finding family therapists in Fayetteville starts with understanding what your family wants to work on together. Family therapy may support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent challenges, blended family dynamics, and communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs, such as family systems therapy, parent-child work, or experience with teens and caregivers.

In a mid-size city like Fayetteville, your search may include therapists with local offices, therapists who offer virtual appointments, or both. Virtual care can expand your options if schedules, transportation, or family availability make in-person sessions harder to coordinate. Family therapy may include the full family, specific family members, or individual sessions that support the broader work. Before booking, read therapist bios to understand their approach, session structure, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Therapy in Fayetteville can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find family therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check whether your plan is accepted, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. From there, you can compare therapists, choose a time that works for your family, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
