Therapists in Elkin, NC

Hello! My name is AnnMarie Worcester and I am a licensed counselor in the sunny state of Florida as well as in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina. For 27 years I have been fortunate to live my passion of counseling, teaching, mentoring, coaching, consulting, and supervising. I have worked for hospitals, residential facilities, crisis units, juvenile evaluation centers, rape crisis centers, youth shelters, Boys and Girls Clubs, child abuse councils, YMCA, community mental health centers, Social Services, and private counseling agencies. My theoretical orientation is very person centered and relationship based, focusing on providing encouragement and fostering empowerment while teaching mindfulness through reality based and CBT therapy techniques. I offer my services to clients who have the willingness and ability to resolve their own problems with my assistance through the use of practical solutions and tools that can be applied in all aspects of life and any situation that may come up! Counseling involves your active participation both in and out of the counseling sessions, as well as a genuine desire and continual effort to change your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. YOU determine the progress of the counseling process. Change and growth will be at your pace.... sometimes it will be easy and swift, sometimes it will be slow and deliberate, sometimes it will be painful.....its all up to you and the time and effort you put in. Success is being able to face life's challenges in the future without my support or intervention by intentionally and consistently using the solutions and tools we’ve discussed and you've practiced on your own. Are you ready? I am here to help!

Hello, and good to see you here! I come from eight years in doctors' offices and am a licensed clinical social worker and certified health coach. I have always known that helping people was the right path for me. Along the way, I have met and served many different kinds of people. I respect every person and only aim to get you where you would like to be. As a social worker, I see you as the expert of yourself and am determined to help you get what you want. I bring to the table excellent diagnostic skills and a focus on evidence-based intervention with an approach that is always centered around you, the client! I would say that the vast majority of my experience as a therapist lies with folks who have depressive and anxiety symptoms and who have experienced trauma. While trauma is a part of life, the past can affect us right now. Healing from trauma is possible, and your path will be your own. I am here to walk beside you on that path, using techniques that are effective and responsive to your needs as well as based in science. As a health coach, I can offer you elevated well being. Coaching harnesses your motivation and inner wisdom to help you meet goals in any areas of your life that feel off-balance or need attention. Health coaching can be effective and powerful. It can also help you implement goals and treatment plans from other professionals or meet important health demands that may impact your future--all while breaking down barriers and tapping into strengths you may have never noticed. I hope that my authentic compassion and desire to positively impact the the world and you as an individual will be evident from the first time we talk and throughout our work together. Let's get started!

I am a country girl with a big heart; two qualities that have served me well as a mental health/substance abuse (MH/SA) professional. I have 12 years of experience working in the mental health field. I am also licensed as an addiction specialist. I first went to college as a math major, but after working with at-risk adolescents in group homes my purpose became clear to me; I am a social worker at heart. I earned my BSW from NCSU and my MSW from UNC-Chapel Hill. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults, couples, and families with diverse backgrounds and experiences, using a collaborative approach. Together, WE identify your goals, then WE identify steps that will help you reach those goals. I have worked with clients with a wide range of challenges including depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use/addiction, and relationship/attachment issues, to name a few. Therapy modalities I use include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and Mindfulness. It is important that my clients understand that they have a voice when they work with me. I believe that despite your challenges, you know what is best for you. My job is to offer ideas and strategies to help you overcome barriers that impact your ability to have a fulfilling life. As a therapist, it is my hope that our work together encourages you to stretch towards your dream, think bigger, go further, be committed, grow, and achieve more than you dared to imagine. Take that first step, by contacting me. I am excited to get to know you so we can do some great work TOGETHER!

In the last few years, I have worked with people in early addiction recovery. Other areas of clinical interest I have are working on adoption related issues, Veterans and Military family members, Anxiety, Depression and Trauma. 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.
