Lynette Cisneros
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LMHC
Therapy is not a one size fits all discipline. As an experienced therapist I recognize that adaptability is key. Your provider must be able to move within the space of the session with you as things present. This is where my experience & our rapport becomes invaluable. In my practice I strongly believe this space is for and about you. Our dynamic is intended as a tool to heal with compassion, intentionality and humor. When we can laugh we will.

Jess Clodfelter
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCMHC, LPC, NCC, CCTP-II
You don’t need another space where someone nods at you and hands you a worksheet you’ll never use — and you definitely don’t need one where you have to explain or defend who you are. I provide gender-affirming therapy for adults across North Carolina and South Carolina, working primarily with trans, nonbinary, and queer folx navigating identity exploration, dysphoria, and the very real stress of existing in a world that doesn’t always get it. My work is trauma-informed and attachment-based, helping you make sense of patterns like overthinking, burnout, people-pleasing, and relationship cycles without pathologizing the hell out of you. This is a space that’s collaborative, honest, and actually feels human — where we unpack what’s keeping you stuck and build something that fits you better. If you’re looking for therapy that’s affirming, real, and a little more direct than the usual, you’re in the right place — go ahead and reach out.

Her Healing Therapy PLLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LCMHC
I am a holistic, trauma-informed therapist who helps women reconnect with their sense of safety, self-worth, and inner strength.

I integrate evidence-based approaches with mind-body practices, including CBT, parts work, and nervous system regulation tools. My style is compassionate, collaborative, and empowering. I strive to create a supportive space where clients feel seen, understood, and gently guided toward deeper self-trust, emotional balance, and lasting personal growth.

Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
I'm Dr. Anna Smith (she/her), a Licensed Psychologist and Certified Sex Therapist. I offer online sex therapy, couples therapy, & relationship counseling across the US in 40+ states — for people who want deeper intimacy, more honest communication, & relationships that feel good.
What makes my practice different is that it’s built entirely around deep relational and sexual intimacy—nothing else. With over a decade focused exclusively on couples and sex therapy, AASECT certification, and advanced training in Emotionally Focused Therapy and trauma-informed care, I’m not a generalist who happens to see couples; this is the work I love.
Clients tell me they finally feel seen, supported, and gently challenged in the exact ways they need. If you care deeply about your relationship (or your relationship with yourself) but feel stuck, exhausted by the same patterns, or unsure how to talk about sex without shame, I’d be honored to help. You deserve a therapist who specializes in exactly what you’re struggling with—and who can help you create the safety, closeness, and pleasure you’ve been longing for. Let’s talk.

Christopher Bissell
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCMHCA, CSAT
I've had a broad range of experiences that got me to this point - from working on the International Space Station Power System Team to traveling for Fortune 500 companies as a business consultant. My personal story gave me a passion for working with individuals to seek deeper intimacy and more fulfilling relationships. My specialized training in emotions, addiction and thoughtful interventions helps my clients achieve their goals and build greater awareness and the ability to effectively process emotions and trauma. I love this work, and I am grateful to join in the stories of brave clients who want to better themselves.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Finding a therapist shouldn’t feel overwhelming—or like a guessing game. At Nour Counseling, we take the time to actually listen before we match you, so you’re not left scrolling through profiles trying to figure it out on your own. We consider what you’re looking for, what you’ve experienced in past therapy (what worked and what didn’t), and the kind of connection you want to feel in the room. We’re also clear about our values—our clinicians are culturally responsive and affirming, and we hold space for clients navigating complex identities and sociopolitical realities without minimizing or dismissing them. Our goal is simple: to help you get connected to a therapist who not only has the right expertise, but who genuinely feels like a good fit.
