I am a LCSW working with all individuals from adolescents to seniors. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, and life stressors. I also help coach managing illnesses such as medical comorbidities and/or mental illnesses.
Hello! I have had the pleasure of working with individuals, couples, and families in a variety of settings (school, outpatient, religious, and military).
Hello! I have over 20yrs experience in various human service settings, all aimed at helping people. Since I have been a LCSW (UNC, 2013), 1:1 therapy is where I see folks experience the most significant changes. I also work at a primary care doctor’s office as a therapist, helping folks of all ages find effective approaches to life’s challenges, uncomfortable moods and worry.
I'm Rae Marsh, the owner of Yield Counseling Services. I provide Christian mental health therapy and Pastoral Counseling through video sessions. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Board Certified Professional Christian Counselor. I've supported clients since 2006 and I'm passionate about walking with others along difficult paths. I'm skilled in leading clients toward desired change.
I believe therapy works best when it feels safe, genuine, and collaborative. My sessions are a space where you can show up as you are — no judgment, no pressure — just honest conversation and compassionate support. Together, we’ll explore what’s been weighing on you and find practical, meaningful ways to help you feel more grounded and at peace.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in North Carolina
Searching for therapists in North Carolina means choosing from a wide range of licensed therapists across urban, suburban, and rural areas. The right fit may depend on what you want support with, such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, or life transitions. As you compare North Carolina therapists, look for training and specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy.
Your options for therapy in North Carolina may look different in Charlotte, Raleigh, Asheville, or smaller communities across the state. Some people prefer meeting with a therapist in person, while others choose virtual sessions for schedule flexibility or access to more therapists licensed in North Carolina. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and areas of focus before you book.
The cost of mental health care in North Carolina varies, and therapy can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists and counselors in North Carolina who match your preferences, take your insurance, and are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to see your estimated cost before booking.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
