Headway
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor
From my perspective, the counseling relationship is a crucial element of the counseling process, which greatly results in clients working towards overall change. Within this relationship, you, the client and I, the counselor, learn to trust one another and progress as a team to identify areas of improvement, accomplish therapy goals for an improved life, and work within a system to realize these goals. Building a rapport between client and counselor is integral to the counseling relationship, and promotes openness and transparency between the two parties. As your counselor, I also have an ethical obligation to protect what is disclosed in private, and to ensure your safety and the safety of others.

Motivational Interviewing (MI)
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.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
A little about me
I’m a therapist who gets how overwhelming this stage of life can feel. You’re juggling pressure, expectations, relationships, and figuring out who you are—all at the same time. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I’m not here to judge or “analyze” you.
My style is real, collaborative, and practical. I’ll help you understand what’s happening in your mind and body, and give you tools you can actually use in everyday life—not just in a therapy session.
Why reach out
If you’re tired of overthinking everything, feeling stuck, or reacting in ways you wish you could change, you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
Reaching out is the first step toward feeling more grounded, more confident, and more in control of your life.
Even if you’re not sure where to start—that’s okay. We’ll figure it out together.

Nicole Merrigan, LPA, PLLC
Psychologist, MA, LPA
Life can feel incredibly overwhelming or paralyzing when you are constantly battling intense emotions, past trauma, or the daily chaos of ADHD—especially when those struggles overlap. My approach balances deep self-compassion and practical, real-world skills. My practice combines the highest standard of evidence-based therapies with a warm, deeply human approach. Together, we will build a tailored toolkit.
