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.

Apex, North Carolina therapist: Christopher McDowell, PsyD, psychologist
Child or Adolescent Issues

Christopher McDowell, PsyD

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. I worked for a child welfare agency in the impoverished areas of Boston for 8 years before starting private practice in 2017.

Falls Church, Virginia therapist: Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D., psychologist
Child or Adolescent Issues

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.

Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience working with children and adolescents. Most children need to be seen in-person, but many teens are comfortable doing therapy virtually and this can be an effective treatment mode for them. With children and younger teens, parent consultations are usually part of the treatment so that we all work together as a "team" to help your child with whatever issues they are struggling. Older teens often do better when the therapy is more confidential, so that they can feel comfortable being open with me. I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you and your child. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your child, your family, and reasons for seeking therapy. I then meet with your child once or twice to get a sense of the issues with which they are struggling and determine if it appears therapy can be useful. At that point I give parents some feedback and we plan together from there. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that kids and parents would like to see.
