In-Person Therapists in North Carolina

Hello! I work with adults ready to address old patterns or new changes that are becoming challenging to live with. This might be anxiety, lower mood, loss, or life transitions, such as pregnancy, parenting, separations, career shifts, or simply wanting to focus on your own wellbeing.

Hi - I'm Maria Dimova (She/Her), a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Charlotte, North Carolina. I take a no-nonsense approach, with a touch of humor, to life’s challenges and mental health. You may look like you have it all together on the outside, but inside you feel overwhelmed, anxious, and exhausted from trying to do it all. Maybe you’re feeling disconnected from your partner, preparing for marriage, or navigating postpartum changes, the demands of motherhood, or a major life transition. Perfectionism may keep you striving without ever feeling “enough,” and the stress can strain your closest relationships. Life can feel like hiking a steep ridge — exhausting, uncertain, and lonely. What you want most is to feel calmer, more balanced, and more connected — both to yourself and with the people who matter most.

I help people navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, and nervous system dysregulation, including from the unique pressures that can come with being a professional, caregiver, or high-achieving individual. Together, we’ll work to better understand what your mind and body are communicating, build a greater sense of safety and emotional regulation, and gently address the experiences that may be keeping you stuck. Treatment is collaborative and tailored to you, with an emphasis on developing practical tools while creating space for deeper healing and self-understanding. My hope is that you leave therapy feeling more grounded, connected to yourself, and better able to move through life with greater ease, resilience, and confidence.

I work with people navigating developmental trauma, addiction, depression, and the complicated work of couples relationships. My own path through these same struggles — trauma, addiction, and long-term depression — sparked a nearly twenty-year exploration into meditation and somatic psychotherapy, and shaped how I show up with clients now. I hold a master's in Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling from Naropa University and I'm a certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and Certified Addiction Specialist. I've worked in community mental health and private practice since 2014, with individuals and couples alike. What I care about most is helping people find real, felt change — not just insight, but a shift in the body and nervous system that actually sticks. Outside of sessions, you'll probably find me at the record store, on a trail, or dancing badly in my living room with my wife and daughter. I'd be glad to work with you.

Hi, I'm Emma. I work with people navigating anxiety, big life transitions, and the deeper process of becoming more authentically themselves. My approach blends body-based trauma work (Somatic Experiencing™) with contemplative practice and depth psychology — because real change happens when we work with the body and nervous system, not just the mind. I hold a Master of Divinity from Naropa University and have trained in various bottom-up modalities. Above all, I meet you where you are, and I'd be honored to walk this next part of your journey with you.

I’m Jena Plummer and I help people find themselves again. As a person, I show up to my office with an understanding of my own humanness. I have my own counselor because I believe in the value (and sometimes magic) of counseling. I find healing in artwork, writing, music, and creating. I named my child after a Phish song. I reload the dishwasher after my family loads it up the first time. I am perfectly imperfect, and I want to help you embrace and make friends with that part of yourself, too. I offer both counseling and coaching/consulting services to those seeking therapy or those looking to grow and develop a therapy practice. I typically have a full caseload, but I also clinically supervise multiple therapists who can help you as well!

Hi I'm Delondria but you can call me Catrice (my middle name). It is my intent to raise awareness about mental health issues. Why is it important (glad you asked)? Because it affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood. Let’s reduce the stigma related to mental illness. The more we talk about mental health conditions, the more normalized it becomes. Starting the conversation is the first step. Let’s talk!

I am a provisionally licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I have experience working with adults ages 18 and up with substance use and mental health concerns. I am rooted in emotions and values. I utilize mindfulness techniques to help clients become more aware of their behaviors, thoughts, and emotions. I help clients develop responsibility in their lives and communicate more effectively to enhance both inter- and intrapersonal relationships. I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). I have experience with anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief, and stress-related concerns. I am here to be someone for you and to help you gain confidence with you are.

I have been practicing as a Physician Assistant since graduating from Lock Haven University with my Master’s degree in Health Sciences in 2015. I am currently board-certified and state-licensed. I grew up in a rural northern Pennsylvania town and now reside in coastal North Carolina with my husband, two children, and two furry pets. I enjoy camping, kayaking, and spending time with my family at the pool. In my professional career, I have evolved as a provider and taken on diverse roles. I look forward to continuing to learn and am committed to providing the best treatment options for my patients.

Welcome to a space where your weight loss journey is understood and supported. As someone who has personally navigated the challenges of shedding pounds, I know the hurdles all too well. My own transformation involved a medical-assisted weight loss program that enabled me to lose 48 pounds in just five months during 2022. The real victory, however, has been keeping that weight off and embracing a healthier lifestyle. My approach to weight management is comprehensive and compassionate. I believe that successful weight loss isn't just about the numbers on a scale—it's about your mental health, your daily habits, and sometimes, the right medical support. Together, we'll explore strategies tailored to your unique needs, fostering sustainable habits that contribute to your overall well-being. Let's embark on this transformative path together, with the goal of not only achieving but also maintaining a healthier you.
