Can you remember the last time you were truly happy? If it has been so long that you are having a hard time remembering, then you may be suffering from a mental health condition like anxiety or depression. Luckily, Shelby has plenty of therapists in town who are trained to help.
The City of Shelby has over a dozen buildings on the National Register of Historic Places that you can visit. Some of these include the Cleveland County Courthouse, West Warren Street Historic District, and the Masonic Temple Building. However, if you are struggling with a mental disorder, you probably don’t want to think about history. You need to get treatment from one of the Shelby therapists today.

Dr. Carol Bunch
Who do you go to when life hurts? What do you do when problems arise? Where do you go when the stigma of traditional counseling is not an option? I am here to assist you with online counseling. I counsel individuals, couples, and families. I have been in private practice since September, 1999. I have been a board Certified TeleMental Health counselor since 2014. I believe that each of us have the ability to heal our hurts through forgiveness and the mending our broken hearts. Some of the issues that I work with are substance abuse, depression, forgiveness, anger, relationship issues, sexual assault, domestic violence, PTSD and career choices. I guess I'm considered a generalist although I'm trained in domestic violence, sexual assault, substance abuse and career counseling. When we look at those areas in our lives, many issues arise such as depression, anxiety, relationships, communication, anger, divorce and others. I believe that God has called me to heal the broken hearts so that we can live again. I believe that there is value in each of you and sometimes we can't see our self worth because of our pain.
