I am professional, compassionate, empathetic, and honest.
Hello, I’m Ambrose Ukpebor, DNP, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience supporting individuals facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and other mental health challenges. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice degree and have worked extensively in crisis and community mental health settings, helping individuals stabilize and move toward recovery. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, focusing on personalized treatment plans that may include medication management and supportive strategies. My goal is to create a safe, respectful space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered in your mental health journey.
I am a Masters-level therapist dual-licensed in clinical mental health counseling and addictions counseling in North Carolina and Georgia. I am a Level II Certified Attachment-Based Family Therapist and a Certified Adoption Competent Therapist. I am also certified in Natural Flow EMDR. I specialize in treating adolescents, young adults, parents, and families who are struggling with a variety of mental health symptoms and behavioral problems.
Life is full of transitions, and sometimes those changes can feel overwhelming. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, grief, divorce, a major life change, or rebuilding after incarceration, my goal is to provide compassionate, judgment-free care that meets you where you are. I believe treatment should focus on the whole person—not just symptoms. Together we’ll create a plan that supports your mental wellness while helping you build the life you want, with medication management, therapy, and practical resources tailored to your needs.
I believe that therapy can have a great impact on one's life. If one is motivated, one can resolve problems, feel better, and address past hardships. I have over thirty years of experience helping clients achieve their goals in a supportive and safe environment. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I received my undergraduate degree from Stanford University and my Masters of Social Work from Columbia University. I have resided in both the United States and Latin America. I look forward to working with each and every client, in order that they may reach their happiest self possible.

Life has a way of changing us, sometimes in ways we never expected. My passion is helping people navigate those moments with compassion, clarity, and confidence.
As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), I believe healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about reconnecting with the person you've always been beneath the stress, pain, burnout, or life transitions.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, overwhelming stress, relationship challenges, grief, substance use recovery, or simply feeling stuck, I provide a supportive, judgment-free space where you can be yourself. You don't have to have all the answers before you walk through my door.
My clients often describe me as genuine, compassionate, easy to talk to, and someone who isn't afraid to bring a little humor into the healing process. I believe therapy can be both meaningful and approachable. Sometimes the most powerful moments happen after we've laughed together.
Above all, I want you to know this:
You don't have to navigate life's journey alone.
Hey — I'm genuinely glad you're here. I'm Tamika, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor based in North Carolina. I work with adults, children, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, family conflict, addiction, and the kind of stress that builds quietly over time until it's hard to ignore. I specialize in working with Black and BIPOC clients, women, and families who want a therapist who truly gets the cultural and personal context of their lives — not just a clinical checklist. My practice is fully telehealth, so you can access support from anywhere in North Carolina without the commute or the waiting room. I accept Aetna, Cigna, Carelon Behavioral Health, and other major insurance plans, because access to quality mental health care shouldn't be a financial obstacle.
If you have been carrying something heavy, whether it is anxiety, grief, a substance use struggle, or the weight of a relationship that has felt unsafe, you deserve a space where you can set it down without judgment. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with an MSW from Walden University and years of experience in trauma, domestic violence, mental health, and substance use. I am genuinely warm, open-minded, and I believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is to walk alongside you, help you reconnect with the strengths you already have, and build practical tools for real and lasting change. Whoever you are and wherever you are starting from, you are welcome here.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Greensboro
Finding addiction therapists in Greensboro starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, nicotine use, gambling, compulsive behaviors, and related concerns like anxiety, depression, stress, or relationship strain. Look for a therapist whose listed specialties and training match what you want to address. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or coordination with medication-assisted care when a prescriber is part of your care team.
Greensboro has a range of therapy options, including in-person offices and virtual appointments across the area. Virtual care can expand your options if you want a therapist with specific addiction experience, harm reduction training, or availability that fits your schedule. As you compare therapists, review whether they are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that work for you, and provide a free phone consultation. Reading bios can also show how a therapist describes their style, including whether they take a nonjudgmental approach to recovery and understand that progress can look different from person to person.
Addiction therapy in Greensboro can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, review detailed profiles, confirm insurance details, and see estimated costs upfront — so you can browse therapists, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
