UnitedHealthcare (UHC / UBH) Therapists in North Carolina

I work with individuals who may have felt discouraged or unsuccessful in therapy before and are looking for a different kind of therapeutic experience. My approach is warm, relational, and collaborative, while also offering gentle challenge when old patterns are no longer serving you. I support clients navigating complex trauma, single-event trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, relationship and communication challenges, and struggles with self-worth. I believe the therapeutic relationship is central to meaningful healing, and I strive to create a space where clients feel deeply understood, respected, and supported as they explore difficult experiences and build new ways of relating to themselves and others. My work is trauma-informed and integrates somatic approaches, parts work, and Brainspotting to help clients process experiences not only cognitively, but also through the body and nervous system. I also have years of experience and training in Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy, which can offer a powerful, experiential path for clients seeking deeper emotional awareness, connection, and healing.Psychotherapy.

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.

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!

Greetings! I'm Dr. Joshua Werblin, a dedicated psychiatrist with a compassionate approach to care. My practice is a sanctuary for individuals of all ages seeking mental wellness. My journey began at The University of Chicago, where I delved into the fundamentals of society and its utopian ideals. I took a somewhat circuitous path from there, working in different fields for nearly a decade before starting to study for my medical degree (M.D.) at Tulane University School of Medicine. During those ten years, I worked variously as a biophysicist, wooden boatbuilder, IT support, astrophysics technical work, and an Auxiliary NYPD officer in Harlem. I completed a Pediatrics Internship at Tulane University, followed by a narrower focus in General Psychiatry Residency training, also at Tulane. I then received subspecialty fellowship training in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at Seattle Children's Hospital/University of Washington, followed by the acquisition of Addiction Psychiatry sub-specialization some years later. My career has been diverse, including roles as an Inpatient Psychiatrist, Consult-Liaison Psychiatrist, and several Outpatient Psychiatry positions in New York, Florida, and Maryland. More than half of my career has been spent serving the most underserved and marginalized populations, such as youth and women rescued from the sex trade, runaway youth, homeless families, LGBTQIA++ populations, and undocumented immigrants. Since 2019, I've been proudly serving as 'The Feelings Doctor' in my solo virtual practice, offering psychiatric care for children, adolescents, adults, and those facing addiction challenges. My commitment to you is simple: to provide empathetic, individualized, evidence-based care that supports your unique journey toward mental health wellness, whether or not you choose to use medications along the way. Let's work together to navigate life's challenges and embrace the path to healing and fulfillment.
