I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 11 years of healthcare experience. Before specializing in psychiatry, I worked in the Burn ICU and outpatient procedural settings, where I learned the importance of caring for the whole person during some of life’s most difficult moments. I earned my nursing degree from UNC Chapel Hill and my Master of Science in Nursing from Frontier Nursing University. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, and especially enjoy helping people navigate ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life changes—like school, relationships, career stress, or grief—that can leave us feeling overwhelmed or stuck.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Financial Social Worker who helps clients navigate anxiety, depression, relationships, and major life transitions. My goal is to create a safe, judgment-free space where healing and growth can take place. I believe that emotional and financial health are deeply connected, and I help clients build healthier relationships with both themselves and their money. My approach is compassionate, practical, and rooted in empowerment and self-awareness.
I believe everyone deserves to experience the joy and peace that comes from healing. If you're feeling stuck in darkness, weighed down by past experiences, or caught in negative thought patterns, you're not alone—and you don't have to navigate it by yourself.
For more than 34 years, I've helped individuals, primarily women, heal from trauma, build self-esteem, and create meaningful, lasting change. I have advanced training in EMDR and specialize in helping clients process traumatic experiences so they can move forward with greater confidence and emotional freedom.
My approach is holistic, recognizing the connection between your mind, body, and emotions. Together, we'll create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to reach your therapy goals. My hope is to help you move beyond simply surviving so you can fully experience the joy, fulfillment, and life you deserve.
If you're carrying anxiety, grief, past trauma, or a complicated relationship with substances, and you're not sure where to start, you've found the right place. I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors through depression, family conflict, PTSD, domestic violence, and stress that never seems to let up. My path into counseling started in Wayne County schools, working with young people who needed someone genuinely in their corner. That experience planted something I've carried through every role since: people don't need to have it figured out before they ask for help. I went on to work in higher education and community mental health, and I'm especially committed to clients who haven't always felt welcomed or seen in traditional mental health spaces.
You may be feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, especially if you’ve experienced trauma, toxic relationships, or emotional pain that keeps resurfacing. It can feel overwhelming trying to move forward while still carrying the weight of the past. You don’t have to do this alone. I provide a supportive space where you can begin to understand your story, break free from old patterns, and move toward a more peaceful, meaningful, and purpose-driven life.
I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported. My goal is to provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore life's challenges, gain insight, and develop practical tools to move toward lasting emotional wellness.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with experience providing psychotherapy to adults across a variety of settings, including outpatient private practice and senior living communities. I work with individuals (adolescents to seniors) experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, chronic pain, relationship concerns, life transitions, and stress-related challenges.
Hi, I’m Anahi Muñoz, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping you feel grounded, focused, and emotionally balanced. I provide holistic, results-driven care for adults and adolescents navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, burnout, and life transitions.
My approach is compassionate yet practical—I combine the precision of evidence-based psychiatry with the depth of supportive psychotherapy and mindfulness tools to help you not just cope, but truly thrive. Clients often describe our work as calming, clarifying, and life-changing, as we focus on restoring peace of mind, motivation, and self-trust.
I love to be a cheerleader for my clients, a pillar of their support system. Sometimes, this means I may have to call you on some stuff, but it's always coming from a place of support and values-alignment!
My qualifications and competence in the area of Counseling are founded on my education, work experience, and additional training in areas relating to the field of counseling. I have over five (5) years’ experience providing services to a wide range of populations including adolescents, adults and couples in school, outpatient, nonprofit, and virtual settings. My specialties include providing counseling services to adults, adolescents, and families surrounding depression, anxiety, trauma, life changes, and emotional regulation.
Hi, I’m Jamelia Shahid-EL a LCMHC and school counselor with 10+ years of experience. I offer affirming, down-to-earth therapy for children navigating anxiety, identity, burnout, and life transitions. My space is inclusive, trauma-informed, and rooted in care.
I have worked in substance abuse treatment for more than twenty years. I have provided clinical treatment in a multitude environments. This includes medication-assisted treatment, medication-assisted detoxification, inpatient and residential, psychiatric hospitals, correctional institutions, and tele-health.
Reaching out can be hard and I am here to help begin the process of healing and being there to help us become a better you. My goal and desire is to help teach you and provide you the essentials to overcome your obstacles. When life gets overwhelming at times, we forget to take care of ourselves. Depression and anxiety does not have to be a part of your everyday life.
“My professional background as a Registered Dietitian led me to recognize my strengths as a social scientist, with a deeper passion for listening, understanding, and counseling others. I graduated from Drexel University in my hometown of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I went on to become dually licensed as both a Registered Dietitian and a Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselor after completing a two-year internship.”
I received my Master of Social Work from East Carolina University and have been practicing as a therapist for 11 years. I believe the foundation of effective therapy lies in a strong therapeutic relationship- one built on trust, openness, and authenticity. I am known for my open-minded, nonjudgmental, and creative approach, helping my clients feel understood and supported as we work together toward growth and healing.

I believe that every person deserves to be heard, valued, and supported. My approach is compassionate, open-minded, and nonjudgmental, creating a safe space where you can openly share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I strive to meet you where you are, offering empathy, validation, encouragement, and practical tools to help you move toward your goals.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, grief, stress, or simply feeling overwhelmed, I am committed to walking alongside you on your journey. Together, we'll build on your strengths, explore solutions, and work toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.
Seeking therapy is a courageous step, and finding the right therapist is an important part of that process. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, understood, and empowered as we work together to improve your well-being and create the life you want.
I look forward to the opportunity to support you on your journey toward healing, growth, and resilience.
I hold a masters degree and am a licensed mental health counselor. I also hold a hefty life school certification. I am a nerd. I am an artist. That combination is pretty cool and useful in relating to you as a person and not a collection of problems to be fixed.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Raleigh
Finding couples therapists in Raleigh starts with understanding what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy, Raleigh couples counseling, and marriage counseling in Raleigh, NC may support concerns like communication patterns, trust after infidelity, parenting disagreements, relationship stress, and major life changes. Not all therapists have specific training in working with couples, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches like the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy in their profiles.
Raleigh offers a strong mix of local therapy options, with in-person offices across the city and virtual sessions that can make scheduling easier for two people. As you compare Raleigh marriage counselors or relationship counselors in Raleigh, NC, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, session structure, and whether both partners feel aligned with the therapist’s approach. Some therapists offer a brief consultation, which can help you understand how they work with couples before you book a first session.
Couples therapy in Raleigh can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you find Raleigh couples therapy options that match your preferences, schedule, and insurance plan. You can review therapist bios, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose a therapist who is ready to meet with new clients.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
