Aligned Counseling and Supervision
Healing for anxious hearts, zooming brains, & the body just trying to hold it all together
Counseling Services:
01
For high-achieving professionals and parents who appear successful on the outside but struggle internally with loneliness, overthinking, and disconnection, despite doing everything “right.” Think of it like having a perfectly organized, color-coded filing system at work while your hidden desk drawer is secretly stuffed with crumpled papers and broken pens that no one else sees. This is for you if you’ve mastered the external performance of having your life together but feel exhausted and invisible beneath that polished surface.
02
Parent counseling is for parents who love their kids but feel overwhelmed by conflicting advice, constant second-guessing, and the gap between the parent they want to be and how they’re showing up when stressed. If you’ve found yourself searching fifteen different parenting blogs at midnight for the "right" answer about screen time while your partner sleeps peacefully, unaware you've been doom-scrolling parenting advice for two hours straight, this is for you.
03
Teen counseling is for high-achieving teens who are externally successful, but are dealing with anxiety and perfectionism on the inside. This is for you if you’re a student who gets straight A's and captains two teams, but you had a panic attack in the bathroom before your AP exam that nobody knows about.

01
Online individual and group clinical supervision for counselors with their LCMHC-A who are located in North Carolina.
