Alicia Battle

Alicia Battle

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 11 mi away • 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.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

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

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Garner

Searching for therapists in Garner starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want to focus on in care. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and population experience that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, how they communicate, and what you can expect if you book.

Garner is a smaller market near Raleigh, so local in-person options may be more limited than in a larger city. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in North Carolina. Consider practical details like appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you narrow your list based on approach, availability, and fit.

Therapy in Garner can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before you begin. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, review estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
