Through the counseling process and self-discovery, these overwhelming feelings and issues can actually become building blocks for a healthier and more fulfilling future. Let's examine your opportunities for growth. I look forward to working together and thank you again!

I am currently accepting new telehealth clients with no waitlist. Are you feeling lost, alone, anxious, or worried? Are the upcoming holidays creating more stress with class deadlines and the end of the semester approaching? I believe wellness is a journey. Not a destination. Therapy does not have to be an intimidating process because you are worthy, and you deserve support. I am ready to go on this journey with you. I also offer evening appointments Monday through Thursday, but I am unable to post them with the scheduling system within this system. Call today for a free 15-minute consultation and let's take the first step together.

Do you feel like you’re in a constant race to attain goals and standards, but it leaves you stressed, burnt out and feeling inadequate? Do you struggle feeling valuable apart from what you produce or do for others? Are negative beliefs about yourself interfering in your relationships? I help college aged folks and young adults develop a healthy sense of identity and worth and navigate the world with more mental flexibility. I am here to help you reframe negative beliefs, cultivate healthier thought patterns and work through unresolved relational pain to manage your life experiences well.

Today is a new day and with new days come new opportunities to make healthy and positive changes in your life. Whether you are struggling from everyday stressors to more significant problems such as addiction or mental health issues we can help at NewPath Counseling and Consulting, PLLC. It is never too late to seek help and make change in your life.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (LCMHCA) offering virtual sessions to all residents in NC and in-person on Tuesdays and Wednesdays in Raleigh. I work with adults (18+) who are navigating anxiety disorders, neurodivergence, relationships, and trauma. My approach is client-centered, emphasizing authenticity and empathetic understanding, mixed in with a variety of skills tailored to fit your needs. I particularly enjoy working with young adults who are trying to figure out who they are away from all the external pressures and influences. I believe in building a trusting and genuine therapeutic relationship with my clients, working together as a team to navigate life’s ups, downs, and everything in-between. I’m committed to providing an empowering, trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, anti-racist, pro-equality space where everyone feels seen, valued, and heard.

Attending college can be both an exciting opportunity and a stressful experience in the life of a student. If you are experiencing stress or anxiety, depression or low self esteem, or find yourself relying too much on drugs or alcohol to get by, feel free to reach out and see if talking with a counselor could be helpful. I look forward to talking with you.

And..... ACTION! Let's face it, Life can be a doozy sometimes and at some point trying to be "on" is exhausting. You think you're doing everything right but nothing turns out the way you think it should. You start to think, "What's the point? Why even try?" You're tired and just want things to be different. Better. I get it. So don't go it alone, let's talk about it. Let's throw some thoughts and solutions out there and see what sticks. You may feel stuck, but YOU'RE NOT ALONE. Call me and let's get you back on track to the best version of yourself. 'Cuz, at the end of the day, Life is tough. But if you're reading this, so are you. TTYL :)

I enjoy collaborating in the therapeutic process, partnering with individuals who are seeking guidance in pursuing wellness and healing. My goal is to create a space for ALL people to feel welcomed and celebrated, and where individuals can work to improve their quality of life. I am a compassionate listener, and I use a Strengths-Based Approach and Cognitive Behavior Therapy to help people find wholeness and continue the process of healing. I am honored to walk alongside clients in their journey toward truth and understanding. When I am not in the office, I enjoy the peace of nature and the encouragement that comes from spending time with loved ones.

Does life sometimes look different than you expected it to be? Do you wonder about your life purpose or what gives you value? We all wrestle with our identity and challenge our self-worth when difficult times emerge in our lives. Some of us struggle with depression, anxiety, grief, or life stage issues and need someone to walk with us and help us navigate during those times. I would love to journey with you through the ordinary and the extraordinary moments of your life. I weave the unique knowledge of theology and counseling into practice together when desired by the individual. I have worked with various populations, serving in both rural and urban settings as a therapist, crisis clinician, and pastor. I specialize in psychological and spiritual wellness by taking a holistic view of the person in the community.

If you are reading this then I invite you to take a moment to appreciate what you have done. Despite the pain you are in, you have taken an important step toward change. Those whom I work with all have one thing in common—pain. Regardless of its form, nervousness, sadness, substance misuse, difficult thoughts, and/or traumatic memories, attempting to cope with this pain has led to more suffering. There now exists a gap between the life they are living and the one they desire. Life has become about avoiding, numbing, or distracting the pain away. Does this sound like you? If so, know this—you’re not broken, you’re stuck. My approach to stuckness involves working together to explore new methods for interacting with pain, ones that don’t result in more suffering. We will work to cultivate clarity around where you have been and where you’d like to go; giving you a deeper understanding of how to create a rich and meaningful life despite the pain. My counseling draws from a foundation of empathy, positive regard, and congruence. I incorporate ACT, CBT, and CPT into my work. Utilizing various treatment modalities allows me to tailor my approach to meet your unique needs. Add in a healthy dose of metaphors, humor, and hands-on practice to create an experience that is informative and transformational.

I am the Adultingcounselor! Let me help you figure out this thing called "Life". Going through a battle on your own is the norm (for some of us) but are “you” ready to change that narrative and create the life you deserve and desire. As you are adulting, we face hardships, both big and small. I believe that being an adult doesn’t stop you from being trapped/stuck in situations that are sometimes hard to face or get out of. Unfortunately, if these issues aren’t addressed, they can and will control our lives. When you change your thoughts, you change your life! We will discover your concerns about your purpose, both personally and professionally. Exploring and identifying your true self and meaning in life. Let me help you understand and manage unresolved issues, such as stress, burnout, financial stress, loss of sense of self, and more. Helping adults (18-30) navigate through counseling successfully, learn skills, and accomplish the life they want to live is my passion. We can’t stop how life happens, but we can change how we view it. If this is you, a family member, or someone you know. Let's get started today!

Truth is I am tired! These are words that I have uttered multiple times during my life journey and I am sure you have as well. As a black boy growing up in the rural south, I know how hard it can be to find space to talk about the hard things. Most of the times we are taught to not have feelings and explore the individual, familial, and societal stressors that constantly impact our ability to honor ourselves.You might be looking for someone to bear witness to the pain and the hardships in your life to feel safe enough to get out of your head and into your body. As a therapist, I understand that healing is a journey and does not happen overnight. Progress is never linear, and my goal is to create space for the good, bad, and the ugly. You will be treated like a human and given the right to access all the parts of you that make you who you are without judgement. I am passionate about providing spaces where you can move from a place of survival to thriving while caring for the whole person. At the end of the day I want you to walk away feeling empowered and confident and today could be the right time to begin.
