Motivational Interviewing (MI)
Kristy Harrington
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
My approach to therapy is relational, grounded and not overly clinical or directive. I approach our sessions with curiosity and relatability. I will help you gain a solid understanding of the root of your problems, to develop realistic expectations of yourself and others, and to ultimately be kinder and less harsh towards yourself. With greater self-awareness, you will have a greater capacity to decide what in your life needs to change and what may require gentle acceptance.

Christopher McDowell, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
I believe that everyone can reach their potential and the happiness they deserve, but we all need help along the way. I utilize a collaborative approach to face these challenges as a team.
I began my career by working with children in foster care for several years in multiple settings. I eventually joined The Home for Little Wanderers for my final doctoral internship, a child welfare agency in the impoverished areas of Boston. I stayed with the Home for 8 years, focusing on psychotherapy, treatment team/service management and coordination, and emergency management. I entered private practice in 2017, working for Collaborations in Clinical Care in Canton, MA. I then moved to North Carolina in 2021, and I currently work in Apex center.

Pattie Vargas
Counselor/Therapist, CBC®️Certified Provider, Kessler Certified Grief Educator
After facing the heart-wrenching challenges of having two of my three children struggle with Substance Use Disorder, my world was further shaken when my son, Joel, lost his decades-long battle with the disease in 2017. In the wake of this profound loss, I was determined to better understand the family experience of addiction, and have since used this lived experience to support and guide others who are navigating the isolating and stigmatizing road of addiction and loss.
As a Compassionate Bereavement Care®️ Certified Provider and Kessler Certified Grief Educator, I work with individuals, families, and communities impacted by loss. I am a Peer Parent Coach with the Partnership to End Addiction, and co-facilitate their online grief support community, and is the host of Finding Hope After Loss, Grief Support groups for The Happier Life Project. As an advocate for recovery policies, I am a California State Organizer with the Recovery Advocacy Project, serve on the RCO/RCC Advisory Committee, and was named the 2022 Architect of Recovery by CCAPP (CA Consortium of Addiction Professionals.) My book, Secrets, Scars and Heart Shaped Jars, shares my family’s journey through addiction, loss and recovery.
