Welcome for the opportunity to get to know you. Reaching out for help is a healthy approach to navigate through life. Initially licensed in VA as a professional counselor, I am currently licensed in SC as an LPC, and in NC as an LCMHC. My experiences have been broad and extensive as I have worked in private practice for the last 13 years and prior to private practice I worked home with families, couples, and individuals in my office and online . I have completed three levels of training in the Gottman Model, a researched model for marriage and couples counseling. My experience as a LPC/LCMHC, and my life experience as a wife of 40 plus years, mother of 2 and grandmother of 8 has enriched my life to work with wisdom gleaned from "real life." I would like to meet you and help you move through the journey of your life.

I am an LCSW and LCAS in North Carolina and have been a social worker for over 25 years, previously working with children and families. In the last few years, I have worked with people in early addiction recovery.

My style is plain spoken and direct and I like to use humor with my clients. The therapy modalities I use most often are Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and some DBT informed techniques and skills. Going to therapy can benefit everyone! A therapist can help you focus on areas and goals that you want to address and therapy doesn't need to be reserved for times of crisis in our lives.

Hi, I’m Tavares Bostic, I am a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. Best known for my down-to-earth and very sound approach, I look to help people marry the discontent they may feel in their lives, with proven coping mechanisms focusing on reducing symptoms related to their mental health diagnosis. With over a decade of experience, I have long been an advocate for helping remove the stigma attached to mental illness, helping couples renew their love and focus to one another, and ensuring that older adults in assisted living and retirement communities become educated on symptoms which are directly related to mental health diagnoses and become motivated to address them by engaging in psychotherapy and most appropriate psychotropic medication. I was blessed enough to earn my master’s in social work with a certification in clinical mental health from The University of Pittsburgh and my bachelors of social work from North Carolina A&T State University. I believe that the combination of cognitive behavioral therapy and Reality therapy is one of the most effective ways of empowering individuals to become their best. I have had the opportunity to work in multiple settings over the past 10 years and I’ve covered mental illness across the spectrum. Let’s sort out what troubles you in healthy ways by exploring your individual experience, and uncovering your unique strengths. I want to empower you to find your best path through this life as you heal from past hurts and search for meaning, purpose, and direction.

You are not alone as you work to improve your life. I wish to join you in this important work of moving forward and becoming your best self. I have worked in the field of counseling for more than 25 years, receiving my PhD in counseling from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. My approach is holistic and person-centered including the mind, body, and spirit and is tailored to you and your personal experience. I integrate a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Integrative Therapy. We will work collaboratively in a therapeutic partnership. My goal is to hold space that is open and without judgment, encouraging the authenticity of your thoughts and feelings to effectively create personal therapeutic solutions that foster greater insight, perspective, and positive transformational change. As we develop a counseling relationship, I will partner with you to set goals, educate you in aspects of what you may be experiencing, and walk with you on your healing and growth journey. I am impassioned to collaborate with individuals experiencing loss, grief, and life transitions. Multiple issues arise relating to loss- loss of a loved one, loss of hopes/dreams, loss of a marriage or intimate relationship; and, working through loss requires time, connections, and a safe place. I can help you reconnect with yourself and redefine what is necessary to help you live your life with new understanding and purpose.

This journey is to assist you in finding the solutions and tools necessary to define and live a fulfilling life, your most authentic self with personal freedom, confidence, personal responsibility, and choice. While everyone is unique, I have found that clients show notable progress in 6-8 sessions. In these sessions, the client develops an understanding of distressing needs/struggles, demonstrates a willingness to work on problems between sessions, and aspires to find mental, physical, and emotional health in a holistic manner.
