Hello, my name is Roger Lee Crowe III, I am a licensed clinical social worker. I Graduated from East Carolina University in 2018 with at Masters in Social Work. Life can be a struggle and feel like one hit after another. This can lead to negative beliefs about yourself and others that keep you from moving toward who you want to be. I want to help you gain new perspectives that allow you to rediscover your authentic self. Growth is facing adversity, learning the lessons, and overcoming it.

Ariel Harris

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I believe therapy should be a place where you don’t have to have it all together. Many of my clients are high-achieving professionals who are used to being the “strong one” for everyone else, but privately struggle with relationships, boundaries, confidence, or life transitions. I strive to create a warm, collaborative space where you can show up authentically, gain insight into patterns that no longer serve you, and build healthier relationships with yourself and others. I especially enjoy working with Black women and LGBTQ+ adults and strive to create an affirming, culturally responsive space where clients can show up fully as themselves.

Carrie Garman

Therapist

It is actually difficult to say what my "ideal client" would be- an individual who is willing to look at the hard and scary stuff- face it- grow from it- put it beside them and no longer allow it to be what they see the world through. They desire to increase their self-awareness and make changes based on their increased self-awareness- thus finding more comfort in their own skin.
