The idea of starting therapy can create a lot of worry and stress for new and even experienced clients. Therapy is about being vulnerable and I am so proud of you for taking the first step towards self healing. Our therapeutic relationship begins with establishing trust within the first few moments of meeting. Those who are searching for a therapist often get lost in the “where do I start” mindset, so I make it may goal to help ease your doubt, answer questions and guide you on the path towards change. We will re-discover your strengths and focus on your potential to understand past trauma, intense emotions and current struggles. Our time together is focused on you. I meet my clients where they are in session whether you are experiencing the highest of highs or the lowest of lows. I focus on a person centered approach, putting you in control of where you want to see change. I work with children to young adults (5-45) in person in NC or virtually in North Carolina and Florida. The relationship between you and I is what makes counseling essential to kickstarting effective progress. I am with you every step of the way to help monitor your journey. Together we will focus on skills that boost confidence, strengthen self-worth, create timely goals, and help you understand intense emotions that cause distress in your daily life.
From the beginning, Carolinas Counseling Group has been committed to combining clinical expertise & current psychological research with the timeless wisdom of a Christian worldview.

Are you feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns- perhaps comparing yourself to others, lashing out at loved ones, feeling unmotivated or unfocused at work? Our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are messengers, offering us information on areas that might need addressing. Therapy is a great place to begin that process. Whether you're unsure of what is behind these patterns, or you've been struggling with anxiety, ADHD, grief, or big life changes, I offer a collaborative space where we can tackle these challenges in a way that feels authentic to you. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all therapy or “quick fixes.” Instead, I offer a thoughtful, steady space for self-understanding, self-compassion, and sustainable change. I pull from several modalities to best suit your needs- whether that's exploring how your past is influencing you now or practicing new tools to help you navigate today's stressors. If my approach speaks to you, I invite you to reach out for a free 10 min phone consultation where I can answer any questions and we can determine if we're a good fit to work together!
I truly believe that everyone has the tools and potential to deal with and face their life challenges, adversities, conflicts, and pain. I am a passionate listener to your story. Together, we will find your own ability to live a better life with yourself and with others.

Hi there! My name is Justice, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate in the State of North Carolina. I was drawn to this profession because of the experiences I have faced in my own life. My passion is working alongside of adolescents, young adults, and new moms as they transition through the seasons of life.. My goal when working with clients is to cultivate a therapeutic relationship by offering an accepting, safe space to be your authentic self to share, learn, and heal.

My therapy style is holistic, and I use a combination of therapeutic approaches and interventions to help meet your needs.

This is a judgment-free zone and welcomes all who wish to expand their sense of self. My role is to connect with you so that you can experience your thoughts and feelings in a way that is different from how you do it at home or with your friends.

She has experience in telehealth counseling and actively pursuing her certification in Board Certified Telemental Health. Levette provides counseling for nurses, and other healthcare providers with workplace issues, concerns, and challenges. Secondly, clients with medical/health issues such as breast cancer, end stage renal disease, heart, and diabetic illnesses etc. In addition, with over 10 years of school counseling experience, she works with adolescent and children with social, emotional, medical and career issues. Her special interests also is to see clients with severe anxiety and depressive issues, and use group counseling specializations to reach each population above. Levette’s approach is ultimately an eclectic one (meaning using different theoretical approaches). The counseling session is sometimes guided by cognitive-behavioral theory (CBT), cognitive information processing, solution focus therapy, and reality therapy for my clients. With individual and group counseling clients are guided through these theories. The goal is to assist the client in making changes to the way persons think so that they can change. Counseling is a joint effort, which cannot be successful without client’s hard work, energy and courage. There are many reasons people seek counseling, regardless of the reasons, she believes an enhanced sense of self understanding and acceptance is essential in all situations (this includes understanding how past experiences have shaped the way we view ourselves.
As a warm and person-centered therapist, I believe in partnership with a client to meet them where they are and work towards their goals together. Life can be hard and circumstances can feel heavy, but you've made the first (and often hardest) step to lightening the load and achieving your goals. I specialize in depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and navigating life stressors, as well as other mental and behavioral concerns. I utilize a blended strength-based treatment approach, using but not limited to: cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, and behavior modification.
We’re here to support you through life’s challenges whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or seeking deeper self-understanding. At Insight Therapy Group, we offer inclusive, evidence-based therapy for older teens and adults navigating ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, trauma, and more. We believe in the power of meaningful connection, and we provide a safe, affirming space where you can feel seen, supported, and empowered to grow. Healing happens in connection. Let’s take that first step together.
We must partner together to help you gain insight into your own experience and life. You’ll often hear me guiding clients to their own answers through questions like: What do you actually need in this moment? Is there another way to express yourself that feels authentic to you? What are you missing out in life because of this avoidance strategy? Is there anything familiar to you about that reaction/response? Go Inward, Gain Strength One of my strengths is meeting the person where they are in their lives. This has come naturally to me and has been reinforced throughout my career as a helping professional. It is incredibly powerful to work with my clients to create change and witness them build confidence in themselves. If someone is super motivated and ready to work through their stuff, I can do that. If someone isn’t there yet and they need to problem solve marriage issues and don’t want to dig into the past, I can support that too. Therapy with me is a collaborative process. You determine the pace, the goal, the direction. My passion is utilizing Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) as an intervention to help you go inward and find your solutions. You are the best expert in your life and I urge you to understand and trust your gut reaction. EMDR is an intervention that is particularly effective for helping individuals who have experienced distressing events; and there is strong data supporting the use of EMDR to alleviate symptoms of OCD, suicidal thoughts, depression, anxiety, and shifting negative core beliefs. My experience also includes working with individuals who have experienced trauma. This includes individuals who use or have used substances to cope. I have worked as an in-home therapist to children and families. This experience provided an up close look at the family system and the impact of trauma on that system. With Awareness, Comes Growth You can generate happiness and contentment from within yourself. It is possible to be calm and set boundaries with others. You can learn to identify the things that have shaped you and understand how this impacts your automatic responses. Allow me to partner with you to gain awareness into yourself, validate your instincts and grow your confidence.
