I am a Certified Anger Resolution Therapist, Certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. Additionally, I hold a Certificate of Competency in Problem Gambling.

I primarily use CBT and Psychodynamic theory when working with clients. I believe in being very direct and blunt with clients as this will help them grow. I don't beat around the bush or allow clients to get away with self-deception and confront their irrational and dysfunctional belief systems. I am comfortable treating a variety of symptoms and conditions. I believe in creating a safe space for clients to express themselves however they need to. This encourages growth and trust in the therapeutic alliance. I encourage clients to set the goals they want to reach. This is their process. Wherever they want to go, I will help them get there. I tell my clients I am the car. They are the driver. We go to the destination they determine. The first session with me is information gathering so I will be asking a lot of questions and they will be doing most of the talking.

I am a warm and empathetic psychotherapist based in Fayetteville, NC, and the owner and lead clinician of Cape Fear Counseling and Associates. I take a humanistic, heart-centered approach to therapy, grounded in compassion, curiosity, and a non-pathologizing lens. I view therapy as a collaborative journey toward healing, wellness, and self-discovery. I enjoy working with adolescents, adults, and families from diverse backgrounds. My passion is deeply rooted in the core mission of the social work profession: to enhance human well-being and empower individuals to grow into the fullest version of themselves. My therapeutic approach incorporates evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Strengths-Based Perspective, and Motivational Interviewing. I tailor each session to meet the unique needs of my clients, always centering their strengths and capacity for growth. I offer both telehealth and in-person sessions to provide flexible and accessible care.

I am honored to have received the #Candela 2024 award from Spring Health which recognizes the collective effort and dedication we share towards providing exceptional mental healthcare to clients such as yourself!!! With over 20 years of experience, I believe that psychotherapy is an invaluable way to help people recognize and change painful patterns of behavior so they can live a more fulfilling and joyful life. I respect the courage it takes to start this process and together we’ll tackle the challenges that you are facing. Therapy is a collaborative process and tailored to your unique needs and goals. I strive to build a trusting relationship with all of my clients as feeling seen and heard are cornerstones of successful outcomes. My initial training was based on psychodynamic principles which allows me to explore people's experiences throughout the lifespan. I have added a variety of modalities that are effective in augmenting this treatment and also allow me to help clients develop an array of coping skills that can be utilized immediately. I tailor my approach to what is needed at the time and what will be most beneficial for my client. Please note, I do work with clients individually on relationship issues but I do not provide couples counseling. I also have a specialization in the treatment of OCD.

Hello, my name is Tracy Faust and I have been practicing Psychotherapy with those of nearly all ages for over twenty years. I earned my Master of Arts from Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI in 2000 and have been full time in the field ever since. For over thirteen of those years my experience was in a community mental health center, providing outpatient therapy, case management and advocacy to those residing in that area, as well as crisis services to all in need, whether residents or visitors. For over six years following that, I worked with children and families providing in-home psychotherapy, both individually with the identified client as well as family-based with parents and siblings. Just prior to the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown, I found online options to work from home, providing psychotherapy virtually, and have been doing so ever since. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you, and hope to hear from you soon!

My name is Dr Mary Muhammad and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Clinical Substance Abuse Counselor. I work with individuals of all racial, gender, sexual, and cultural identities on nutrition for mental health, life transitions, relationships, motherhood, Anxiety/Panic, stress, addiction, trauma, and more. As a therapist, my mission is to empower individuals and families in reclaiming their peace through natural and holistic behavioral health services. My approach promotes increasing clarity and alignment of personal values, upholding boundaries, increasing skills to navigate life challenges, and feeling empowered over one’s health and life. I also am very intentional in integrating mindfulness, nutrition, movement, and designing a healthy routine for all my clients as this is foundational to solid health. Wellness is for everyone! Let’s work together on building a whole life designed by YOU that fulfills your values and overall wellness.

Welcome! You’re taking a tremendous step by reaching out for therapy. It’s often a very hard step to make. Hoops to jump through, filling out forms, finding time to look at profiles, thinking about who might be able to help, then eventually finding a time that works for you and the therapist. It takes a lot of work. You making it this far in the process is proof that you’re really motivated and ready to feel the way you want to feel. My experience is in addictions, anxiety, depression, stress management, grief, and career development. The people who tend to choose to work with me are those experiencing life changes such as career changes, retirement, empty nest, new parent, illness or injury, divorce, and loss. Though general burnout prevention and stress management has become my “specialty”, I prefer looking at the whole picture. You are not equal to the things that are weighing you down, you are not equal to the mistakes you've made, and you are not equal to what you've been through. There is so much more to you and together we will focus on all of it. We will address overall wellness and patterns of times you’ve felt good and times you’ve felt bad. If you’ve participated in counseling before, you know that every counselor is different and every experience is different. It’s important that we’re on the same page about the process, which is something we’ll talk about the first time we meet. I’m here to listen to you and offer suggestions, but there’s no magic solution. And things aren’t always easy or fun. This is your journey with bumps and wrong turns and sometimes surprises that are better than you imagined. But it’s your journey and I am only here to keep you company and help you find your way. Regardless of how long the journey lasts or what the path is like, I look forward to joining it with you.
