Ryan Egan
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I help kids, teens, and parents make practical changes that turn arguments, tears, and meltdowns into self-control, confidence, and peace. You've heard other parents reassure you that this is temporary, or you just need to be more kind, or strict, or teach them to breathe. What if you could stop second-guessing yourself, and get a proven plan that works long-term? We'll use evidence-based, step-by-step strategies to cut through the confusion and find the path that actually fits your family. I have seen hundreds of kids and teens who struggle with anger, impulsivity, listening, anxiety, depression, and lots more, and I know one thing for sure: There are no bad kids, and no bad parents. Reach out today and learn more about how I can help!

Bridges Art Therapt
Art Therapist, ATR-BC, ATCS
Helping people learn about the healing power of art is my passion. As an artist myself, art making has always been my go-to self-care activity, even before I knew about the field of art therapy. When I learned about art therapy, I instantly knew that I wanted to make it my life's work. Its important for you to know, though, that you don't have to be an artist to benefit from art therapy. I design each session about the client I am working with. Art therapy is not a one-size-fits all type of therapy so every session is uniquely designed to fit your healing journey.

Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
Whether you're dealing with big stress, big feelings, or big competitions, I can help. Most teen and adult clients come to see me for anxiety, sport psychology, and eating disorders. Our work will help you feel more confident in yourself, more poised under pressure, and more capable. You will feel free from rules and perfectionism. You won't let your weight define you. You will know your worth isn't dependent on your achievements. You will finally eliminate that voice in your head telling you that you aren't enough.
I understand the pressure felt by high achievers and perfectionists because I've been there. I know what it's like to have mental blocks in sport, to run a business, to feel so anxious that you feel paralyzed - but I also know the way out. I blend my expertise as a former Division I athlete and a doctoral-level psychologist to bring you an elite level of training, expertise, and lived experience. I help clients feel heard and understood in meetings, and use strategies that actually get clients results in their life outside of meetings. Clients can feel empowered knowing they are using their values to achieve maximum performance and well-being. You can learn more about me, my work, and how it will help you live a more fulfilling life at www.bloompsychologync.com.

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.

Durham is home to Duke University and Duke University Medical Center, one of the leading psychiatric research and treatment centers in the country — an institution that deeply shapes the quality and sophistication of the local therapy community. The Research Triangle's concentration of academics, researchers, and healthcare professionals creates demand for therapists with intellectual depth and experience with high-achievement anxiety, identity work, and the stresses of competitive knowledge-economy careers. Durham also has a vibrant Black community with deep historical roots, and therapists offering culturally affirming care, racial identity work, and intergenerational trauma support are well represented. The city's progressive culture sustains strong demand for LGBTQ+-affirming therapists, and many practitioners integrate social-justice-informed approaches across their work.
