Substance Abuse
Insight Therapeutic and Wellness Solutions, PLLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCS, NCC, ACS
More often than not, drug addictions start with an experimental use of a drug in social situations. And for some people, the drug use becomes more frequent. As time passes, a person may feel the need to use more of a drug to get their desired high, and soon a person may need the drug to simply feel “good.”
We will address the symptoms of your addiction and the related areas of impaired functioning, and together we’ll structure the time and content of your ongoing recovery.
We believe that there are many paths to successful recovery that will work with your goals and desires, and ensure you can make the life changes you want to make. Please contact us today so we can schedule an appointment. We have staff who are specially trained in substance use disorders

Greensboro is home to multiple universities — including the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, North Carolina A&T State University, and Guilford College — creating significant student mental health demand and a historically grounded HBCU community with deep connections to the civil rights movement. The city's textile and furniture manufacturing heritage has given way to healthcare, education, and distribution as primary economic drivers, and therapists frequently address occupational transitions and the identity challenges of a post-industrial workforce. Cone Health provides major institutional mental health resources, alongside a private practice community serving the Fisher Park and Irving Park neighborhoods. Greensboro's significant Vietnamese, Korean, and Latino communities drive growing demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists.
