I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina with a strong passion and deep desire to inspire and heal others through the gift of unconditional presence, warmth, and acceptance. Over the past 13 years, I've worked with clients on a wide range of issues to include: anxiety, depression, PTSD, relationship issues, difficulty setting boundaries, codependency, nightmares, low self-esteem and more! Our treatment goals are developed collaboratively. In session, we will explore and process your choices, desires, obstacles, patterns and limiting beliefs. I consider myself an Integrative therapist , combining different therapeutic modalities and tools to fit the needs of the individual client. I believe psychotherapy is an opportunity for you to gain insight into why you act the way you do, explore who you want to be in the world, and better understand what you need in order to thrive. I truly enjoy helping my clients learn to be curious about themselves so that we can examine issues with less judgment and more self-compassion and creativity! I look forward to working with you!

I feel a deep sense of respect and appreciation for each new person who decides to enter counseling with the courage and commitment to discover and make the changes that will give their life new meaning and direction. The opportunity to witness the growth of another is an honor and a privilege. When a person comes to therapy, it is because they want something different in their lives. My job is to help you find ways of seeing a problem and handling emotions, thoughts, and situations that might not have occurred to you by yourself. When we both understand what you want, I will help you devise various ways to get what you want. I will try to understand you and the difficulties you are experiencing holistically by paying attention to your body, mind, emotions, and spirit. The important thing to remember is that in the end, making changes in your life is up to you. For counseling to be effective, you must make a commitment of time and energy and take an active part in the process. Therapy is about equipping you with life-long solutions. My goal for you is to feel better and empower you to be better. I received a Bachelor's at Pembroke State University in Psychology and a Master's at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke in Service Agency Counseling. *Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), granted by the NBCLPC, September 2004 *Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist Associate (LCAS) granted by NCSAPPB, January 2021 *Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor (LCMHCS), granted by NBCC, July 2012 *National Certified Counselor (NCC), granted by the NBCC, April 2008 *Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapist Certification (TFCBT) granted by the NCCTP, June 2010 *Certified Child and Family Forensic Interviewer (CFEP), granted by UNC-Chapel Hill CMEP, August 2012 *Chaplain, ordained by Warrior Family Ministries October 2019 I have 20+ years of clinical experience across a variety of mental health/clinical settings to include outpatient private practice, agencies, residential, and schools.

My name is Jalisa and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over five years of experience providing therapy services. I have worked in a wide range of therapeutic settings to include: inpatient psychiatric hospital, residential behavioral treatment facility, a medical hospital (working within a pediatric intensive care unit), as well as within higher education. I have experience working with clients affected by depression, anxiety, substance use, trauma and relationship challenges from individual, group and family work. While I use a variety of therapeutic modalities, my approach is extremely client centered. I believe that you, the client, are the experts on your life and determine the direction and depth of therapy. Through a strengths-based and solutions-focused lens, I draw on multiple treatment modalities to guide clients in identifying strengths and developing treatment plans that accomplish their goals. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I assist clients in exploring relationships among thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to aid in discovering dysfunctional thought patterns leading to self-destructive behaviors and beliefs. I am also trained in the evidence based model of Functional Family Therapy (FFT) where I view the entire family unit as the identified client, working to engage and motivate, facilitate behavior change, and generalize the skills learned to areas outside of the home. I do not take it lightly that you have chosen me to support you during what may be a challenging time in your life. My hope is to aid you in living a more empowered and peaceful life! My areas of interest include racial equality and ethnic diversity, women's empowerment, and the relationship between physical/mental wellness. Should you feel in need of urgent help or that you are in crisis at any time during our work together; please call 1-800-273-TALK 24 hours a day; or 911. This forum does not provide any type of emergency services, so I want to be sure you know who to contact if you need immediate help.
