I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Addiction Specialist — and this work is not just my profession, it is my calling. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating substance and behavioral addictions, and I also hold space for something that often goes unaddressed: the family members of addicted loved ones, who carry their own profound pain and deserve their own healing. I am trained in EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Relapse Prevention, and Self-Compassion practices. But beyond the credentials, here is what I want you to know about me: I believe that therapy is about walking beside you — not directing you, not fixing you — with the quiet understanding that we are all, in our own way, walking one another home. That belief shapes everything about how I show up for my clients.
I earned my Master of Social Work from UNC–Chapel Hill in 1999 and have more than 25 years of experience helping adults and families navigate emotional distress, relationship difficulties, and major life challenges. My background includes work as a psychotherapist and child welfare social worker.
I bring experience, steadiness, and genuine curiosity to my work. I am interested not only in what people are struggling with, but in how they came to experience themselves and their lives in the ways they do.
Through Headway, I provide insurance-based therapy to individual adults only. I do not see couples through insurance.
Hello, and welcome! My name is Tierra Allen and I’m a licensed therapist with over nine years of experience in the field of Social Work, having transitioned into therapy in 2020. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with children, teens, and adults, helping them navigate life’s challenges and develop healthier ways to cope. I specialize in working with men, women and teen girls, helping them regulate emotions, build resilience, and respond to stress in ways that promote growth and emotional well-being. My practice currently serves teens and adults. If you or your teen is struggling with overwhelming feelings or challenges in life, I’m here to support you in creating lasting change and finding peace amidst the chaos with a healthy RESET.
Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed with life, exhausted, anxious, or depressed? Have you experienced a stressful or traumatic life event? Perhaps you struggle with a chronic illness. Maybe you struggle with a difficult child or teen. Or maybe your partner has been unfaithful. Are you tired of feeling isolated and hopeless? You want- no, you need- things to change, but you don’t where to begin. Asking for help can be one of the most difficulty things to do, but I would be honored to help you discover your inner strength and begin your journey to healing and being who you are meant to be.
I have received training in Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy (IPSRT) for managing bipolar disorders as well as certification as a clinical trauma professional. A nationally certified counselor, I am also a member of LPC Association of NC and the International Association of Trauma Professionals (IATP).
I am passionate about helping people triumph over trauma, learn mindfulness-based practices to reduce stress and manage anxiety, improve self-esteem, understand the relationship among our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors (CBT) and learn to tolerate distress in their lives.
Clodagh O' Herlihy is a licensed Marriage and Family therapist with over 17 years of relationship counseling. She has an integrative approach with which she incorporates body mind and spirit or attitude in her work.
Clodagh works with individuals and couples. Clients that show up in her office need help with relationship conflict, abuse, trauma, anxiety, depression, infidelity and sexual intimacy.
Along with unconditional positive regard, Danielle utilizes modalities such as motivational interviewing (MI), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). She has her LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker), LCAS (Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist), and is currently working on her RPT (Registered Play Therapy) Certification.
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.

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 Greensboro
Finding the right therapist in Greensboro starts with getting clear on what kind of care you need. Therapists, counselors, and psychiatrists each bring different training. A therapist or counselor (such as an LCMHC, LCSW, or LPC) provides talk therapy for concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who can diagnose conditions and prescribe medication. On Headway, you can browse both therapists and psychiatrists, read detailed bios about their approach and specialties, and book a free phone consultation to see if they're a good match.
With providers across the Piedmont Triad — from downtown Greensboro to surrounding areas like High Point and Burlington — you have options for both in-person and virtual sessions. Consider what matters most to you: a provider who specializes in a specific concern, someone who offers evening or weekend availability, or a therapist whose background and approach resonate with you. Provider profiles on Headway include information about style, experience, and what to expect, so you can compare before you commit.
Therapy in Greensboro can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and your out-of-pocket expense may be as low as $0 per session. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
