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.

Whether you are new to therapy or someone who is looking to explore a deeper, more profound approach, I am here to help you learn the tools and skills to create positive change in your life. My practice is about creating a safe space where clients are able to heal from anxieties, past difficulties, and traumas by increasing their awareness and acceptance of the different parts that make up who we are as human beings. In doing so, clients are able to release the burdens of the past and find new direction in their lives. I specialize in treating Trauma/ PTSD, Anxiety, Self-Esteem, LGBTQIA+ populations and more. My approach is to go in depth and explore core issues fundamental to well-being. Together, we will treat the causes, not just the symptoms. Getting to the root of mental health challenges facilitates deep transformation and healing from the inside out. I promise to offer you a safe space for exploration with compassion and an open mind. I employ evidence-based models that are individualized to meet your specific needs. I am certified in EMDR, which helps clients process and move past the emotional and physical pain rooted in traumatic memories. I also employ approaches from IFS, DBT and ACT. I am trained in mindfulness and self compassion based approaches and incorporate this into therapy.

Gastonia, NC

Hello! At Discovery Counseling, I approach counseling from an individual perspective. I believe everyone is in the process of discovering themselves. I come alongside you in this process to support and act as a guide. I believe you are the expert on you. I help to assess your strengths and areas of growth then develop a plan to use those to improve your life. I enjoy working with individuals who want to find out who they are and where they want to go. I specialize in working with people going through major life transitions, desire to have a stronger sense of identity, and asking serious questions about their view of life. Because of this, I specialize in working with those who are in the LGBTQ+ community, Gen Z and Millennials, and those impacted by major changes such as moving away from home, divorce, job changes, and more. Further, I work closely with those going through spiritual questioning, no matter their faith. Overall, I am looking to work with anyone who desires to develop a better sense of who they are and where they want to go. I look forward to hearing from you and help you discover yourself.

The individuals I partner with often feel stuck or lost in an area of their life. They seek to better understand themselves, find healing, or achieve personal growth. Many face challenges with low self-worth, relationships, sports-related issues, performance anxiety, managing stress, or varying levels of tech addiction. They aim to break free from feeling stuck, build confidence, and accomplish personal goals. Often, they're aware of changes they need to make and may find it difficult to take those steps on their own—if this sounds like you and you're ready to make a change, let's do this together. My approach to working with people is rooted in attachment theory and client-centered practices. I utilize an integrative approach to help people tap into their inner resilience, face fears, break out of unhealthy patterns, and accomplish personal growth. I'm here to help you break free from whatever may be holding you back. We can create a safe and accepting space together where you will be supported and cared for. Reach out to see if we're a good fit.

Do you want to take control of your life? It may be difficult for you to sleep, eat, or manage your emotions. Have you found yourself crying or feeling agitated? You worry that the pain and disappointments from the past will always impact your happiness. Perhaps, you are in a relationship, and you find yourself thinking that you love this person, but it's just not working. The life you see for yourself includes a "rich" love, where you are able to communicate and meet each other's needs. In this new life, you have the skills to handle issues and manage your fears. You want and deserve to have peace and joy. If you can relate, I'm here for you. My intent is to help you gain the things you want in life, whether to obtain a goal, improve a relationship, or achieve peace. I utilize Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) to help change behaviors and manage anxiety and depression. I also use Christian Cognitive Behavior Therapy with clients who rely on their faith to help them cope with life. My other go-to tools include Reality Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques. Let's schedule a brief phone consult to determine if we can make a good working partnership. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Boone, NC

I have been a practicing psychologist in Boone, NC for almost 20 years. I have worked with college students in various capacities throughout most of my career. Therapy is like taking a class on yourself. You are the expert on you. My goal is to hold a safe, comfortable space for you to feel heard and seen and to know that your feelings are valid. I believe you/we all innately have the strength and ability to endure, overcome, heal and grow. I want to help instill confidence and motivation to support your on journey. To help you feel grounded and find ways to tap into your inner strength. By gaining insight into the connection between your thoughts, feelings and behaviors you will be able to improve you mental health and reach your behavioral goals. Together we will identify goals and create a plan to achieve them. In therapy you will learn coping skills and strategies to navigate difficult situations and emotions. At times this means processing through past events, current experiences and traumas. Other times, there is a need to focus on tangible action-oriented goals. To learn concrete strategies to manage the demands of life, cope with stress and regulate mood. Perhaps this is even a time to challenge yourself as you are growing and becoming the version of yourself you hope to be. Transitioning into school as a freshman, as well as into your post graduate life, can be hard to navigate. You are faced with various demands: academic, social, financial and otherwise. I take a multi-systemic approach to treatment to ensure you are fully utilizing resources and supports (on campus and in the community) that may help you along. My areas of expertise include but are not limited to: anxiety and panic; depression, bipolar disorders and mood dysregulation; substance use and abuse; assessment, treatment and management of adult ADHD; grief; management of chronic medical conditions that are co-morbid to mental health issues; developmental transitions; college student wellness. I take an eclectic approach to therapeutic interventions built on the foundation of a strong therapeutic alliance. Using a strengths based, multi-systemic and holistic approach; I draw from interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing (MI).

Helping ADHD brains thrive - Trauma recovery with EMDR - LGBTQ+ affirming. You’ve been doing your best to keep it together, but your brain won’t slow down, the past still hits hard, or you’re tired of trying to explain your identity. If you feel scattered, stuck, or just plain exhausted—you're not alone. I help people like you find clarity, healing, and practical tools to move forward. I blend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused strategies, and EMDR (when it’s a good fit) to help you create real change. We’ll challenge old patterns, take practical steps forward, and when appropriate, use EMDR to gently reprocess painful memories and shift the beliefs that keep you stuck. Therapy with me is collaborative, down-to-earth, and supportive—expect compassion, real talk, and plenty of space for laughter along the way. You don’t have to do this alone! If you’re ready to feel more grounded, focused, or just more you, let’s talk. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can see if we’re a good fit.

Andrea Garraway Counseling PLLC
Licensed Professional Counselor
Charlotte, NC

I am Dr. Garraway. I am a helper and I have a knack for finding remote and unexpected places to reinvigorate in touch. One secret of success is always being myself, colloquial, informal, and humorous. While evidence-based, I counsel from the familiar, practical, and everyday examples. My practice is 100% remote but still 100% warm, compassionate, and human. Here you will find a mental health psychotherapist, who specializes in substance-use treatment for adults and couples. I teach you how to listen to and honor the various parts of yourself that seek a voice, whether that be a thought, feeling, or observation, while challenging self-limiting beliefs, using a kind and loving approach that is transferable to other life challenges.
