Hi, My name is Richard Sladich. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with over 4 years of experience working in the Mental Health field. Looking for help with social anxiety? Although I have experience in treating an array of issues, I specialize in the range of problems that exists from shyness to Social Anxiety Disorder. I know what it takes to treat Social Anxiety Disorder because I have overcome it myself. I also focus on the issues of generalized anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, agoraphobia, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and/or depression. As your counselor, I will provide you with a safe, comfortable, supportive environment where you can express yourself without judgement or shame, and with acceptance. I enjoy working with clients regardless of race/ethnicity, religious beliefs, or sexual orientations. Working together we will develop your individual counseling goals and a plan to achieve those goals. I rely mostly on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with person-centered approaches. For those who have some understanding of psychological theoretical approaches, you might be interested to know the following about therapy with me: Many practitioners state that they use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when they actually use only a handful of CBT techniques. In my practice roughly 70% of my therapeutic techniques are from CBT, as I have found it extremely helpful for clients and for myself. I also rely on a Person-Centered (Rogerian) empathic approach to understanding each client. I often use Motivational Interviewing (Miller and Rollnick) techniques to help each client make their own decisions about how to reach their goals according to their beliefs and standards. I sometimes find it appropriate to utilize techniques from a “Here and Now” (Gestalt) or “Inner Child” (Jungian-and others) perspective. Cognitive features of therapy will include exploring your own thought processes. Behavioral aspects could include exposure to feared stimuli or situations. Other techniques could include progressive muscle relaxation, deep breathing, meditation, visualization, and reframing. If we are addressing issues of anxiety or depression, I will regularly ask you to complete “homework” as part of the therapeutic process. This could include anything from reading to behavioral practice in the community.

  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Burgaw?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a Burgaw therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors and therapists are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of Burgaw therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A Burgaw therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

With a lot of people in NC, therapists may be booked out with clients. Through the list of profiles or therapists above and others within BetterHelp's team, you may be able to find a psychologist within 24 to 48 hours. If you're searching to find a a nearby psychotherapist close to 28425 or the surrounding zip codes, consider others available through the BetterHelp site where you can schedule a session based on your and the therapist's schedule. No matter if you are seeking help from therapists in your area or beyond, online therapy can be a great option.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Burgaw counselor?

Before seeing your Burgaw therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, you can let our therapists know if you have any concerns or feel unsure about what to talk about. Burgaw therapists here may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine? 

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Burgaw licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a Burgaw counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in Burgaw, North Carolina can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Burgaw has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
