Raleigh, North Carolina therapist: Nour Counseling, counselor/therapist
Child or Adolescent Issues

Nour Counseling

Counselor/Therapist
Being a teenager right now is a lot. Between school pressure, social dynamics, family expectations, identity development, and the constant presence of social media, many teens are navigating more than they’re given credit for. What gets labeled as “attitude” or “withdrawal” is often stress, overwhelm, or trying to make sense of themselves in a world that can feel intense and unforgiving. And for many teens—especially those holding marginalized identities—there are added layers of cultural expectations, discrimination, and pressure to navigate systems that don’t always feel safe or affirming. At Nour Counseling, we work with teens in a way that feels real, not forced or overly clinical. We take time to build trust, understand what’s actually going on beneath the surface, and create space where they can speak openly without feeling judged or dismissed. We help teens develop practical tools for managing emotions, navigating relationships, setting boundaries, and building a stronger sense of self. We also collaborate thoughtfully with caregivers when appropriate, while still respecting the teen’s voice and autonomy. Our goal is to support teens in feeling more grounded, more understood, and better equipped to move through this stage of life with clarity and support.

Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in treating children and adolescents, with a focus on boys given that parents tend to primarily send me their boys. Most of my training during and after graduate school focused on the treatment of children and adolescents.
