Therapists for college students near Duke University
Anxiety, family issues and challenging experiences make it difficult to function. You may be finding it hard to deal with your emotions or to have connected, secure relationships. You may even be so overwhelmed that you're not as committed to your goals as you'd like to be. Sometimes it can be really hard to talk about what's bothering you because you feel judgement or shame. Without support, day-to-day life can feel endlessly tiring. I'm a warm, caring therapist ready to sit with you through your pain and with your joy. Some of my identities include being Black, Lesbian and of kinship care origin. My virtual couch invites all races, ethnicities, religions, sizes, sexual orientations and genders. I'm ready for you.
The pressure to succeed, the self-doubt that has you questioning your own potential, and the anxiety that comes with wanting to get everything right really adds up faster than anyone tells you it will. And somehow, you're still showing up every day. I work with undergraduate and graduate students who are doing everything they're supposed to do and still feeling like something's off. Whether it's anxiety, identity, relationships, family, or just the weight of figuring out who you're becoming, we can work through it together, honestly and without judgment. I'm Melvin, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 9 years of experience, including time at the counseling centers of NC State and NCCU. Sessions are fully virtual, available to students anywhere in North Carolina, and built around your schedule. If something in you is ready for things to feel different then let's make some time to talk! Book a free 30-minute consultation or reach me directly at (919) 410-8553.

As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, my passion has been to assist others with finding that light on the other side of a seemingly dark tunnel. I frequently work with adults ages 17+ to help them gain understanding of how our past can influence our present behaviors and emotional responses and assist those struggling with addiction to regain control over their own lives. I enjoy working with couples to develop positive, healthy relationships and interactions with each other through positive communication, conflict resolution, and remembering where the spark originated. I also work with children ages 8-12 years old who are dealing with depression, anxiety, parental separations, bullying, and self-esteem. Through an Adlerian therapeutic approach and using modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy, we will work through the challenges that may arise in our everyday lives. I have a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, and am licensed to practice in North Carolina. I became a therapist after spending 8 years in the mental health field working with struggling communities through substance abuse, child sexual abuse, developmental disabilities, dual-diagnosis, and severe mental illness. Many of my clinical experiences over the last 12 years were developed through community mental health, home-based therapy, and mental health practices with children and adults. I am passionate and dedicated to each individual client that I have the pleasure to assist. I have the understanding and personal experience that therapy can be scary, it can be difficult and overwhelming, but I also know that the therapeutic process is something that you have control over. You are the conductor of the train and I am simply the track to help guide you along the way.

If you’re struggling emotionally as a young adult, you’re not alone. Transitioning into adulthood has always been tough, but Generation Z is facing a fresh set of challenges. You’ve grown up in a world where post-9/11 security, recessions, and lockdown drills are the norm. Then, two crucial years of your life were upended by a global pandemic. It’s no wonder so many young adults are struggling with anxiety, depression, and despair. I will help you overcome these challenges. My approach is based in cognitive behavioral therapy, but my methodology is specifically adapted for young adults. I work with individuals aged 17–24, offering compassionate, pragmatic support. My advice will be tailored around your unique needs and goals. You will receive honest feedback, gentle pushes, and proven tools for building a better life. Together, we can find the solutions that work for you. Best of all, because I offer virtual appointments, you can get the help you need right from the comfort of your own home (or dorm room).
Hi, my name is Jamie, and I am happy that you are considering counseling. I believe people naturally like to set goals and make positive changes to reach these goals. With support from a good provider, change is possible. My primary therapeutic orientation is a client-oriented, supportive, and eclectic therapeutic style.
I work with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, pain, grief/loss, illness, self-esteem concerns, and self-criticism. I teach mindfulness skills to help you reduce stress, anxiety and pain, and cope more effectively with grief, loss, and illness. I'll teach you how to feel better, feel better about yourself, and treat yourself with greater kindness and compassion. We have more control over our lives than it sometimes seems that we do. I teach people how to manage your thoughts and feelings so that you feel a greater sense of calm, happiness, and well-being. I'll teach you how to get unstuck, set clear intentions for your life, and take action to achieve your intentions and goals. **All sessions are telehealth.**

My style is relational, warm and direct. I have over ten years experience providing therapy to adults. I am trained in both long-term and short-term treatment models and blend insight-oriented and behavioral interventions that are tailored to meet individual goals.
I help my clients manage fear of rejection/abandonment through self compassion and radical acceptance. I help those who are exploring their self identity and need to build up their self confidence. Those who maybe neurodivergent, have immigrated here, or who find themselves not fitting in. I affirm LGBTQIA+, Black, Indigenous, People of Color, and Multicultural. My approach is empathetic and culturally sensitive to uphold my client's values and beliefs. I work on empowering my clients to focus on their strengths. I work with clients who tend to be perfectionists and have a hard time making mistakes. I support my clients navigate their interpersonal relationships to connect and communicate more effectively.

I’m deeply passionate about working with teens and young adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, or neurodivergence. I understand that navigating these challenges can feel incredibly overwhelming and isolating. My clients often come to me feeling stuck and uncertain, desiring clarity and a sense of direction. They are eager to grow and find their path, yet they may not have the tools or support they need to make this vision a reality. My role is to walk alongside them with empathy and patience, helping them build confidence and resilience. Together, we work to uncover their unique strengths and develop strategies that honor their individual experiences and aspirations. My goal is to provide a supportive space where they can explore their feelings, discover their authentic selves, and move forward with hope and purpose.
