Jess Clodfelter
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCMHC, LPC, NCC, CCTP-II
You don’t need another space where someone nods at you and hands you a worksheet you’ll never use — and you definitely don’t need one where you have to explain or defend who you are. I provide gender-affirming therapy for adults across North Carolina and South Carolina, working primarily with trans, nonbinary, and queer folx navigating identity exploration, dysphoria, and the very real stress of existing in a world that doesn’t always get it. My work is trauma-informed and attachment-based, helping you make sense of patterns like overthinking, burnout, people-pleasing, and relationship cycles without pathologizing the hell out of you. This is a space that’s collaborative, honest, and actually feels human — where we unpack what’s keeping you stuck and build something that fits you better. If you’re looking for therapy that’s affirming, real, and a little more direct than the usual, you’re in the right place — go ahead and reach out.

Dr. Lauren Chase
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LCMHC, NCC, BC-TMH
You may look successful on the outside, capable, responsible, the person everyone relies on, but inside, you feel exhausted from carrying so much. Many of the women I work with learned early to manage other people’s emotions while ignoring their own. If you grew up with an emotionally immature parent, you may now struggle with anxiety, people-pleasing, and guilt every time you try to set a boundary. I help high-achieving women connect the dots between their family patterns and their current stress so they can stop over-functioning, trust themselves, and feel calmer and more grounded in their daily lives.

Dr. Cierra Listermann
Psychologist, Ph.D., HSP-P
I'm currently accepting a limited number of new clients, with priority availability for CPT Intensives.
I became a psychologist because I believe people deserve more than simply learning how to cope with what hurts. They deserve the opportunity to heal, grow, and reconnect with themselves. My work is centered around helping adults virtually across North Carolina who have experienced trauma, PTSD, C-PTSD, and difficult life experiences understand themselves with greater compassion and move toward the life they want to create and experience living.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and individualized. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel truly seen and understood while also having a psychologist who can provide the knowledge, structure, and guidance needed to support meaningful change.
I specialize in helping clients work through the lasting effects of traumatic experiences, including PTSD, complex trauma (C-PTSD), anxiety, depression, grief, burnout and chronic stress, and major life transitions. I use evidence-based approaches that are proven to work while honoring that every person’s healing process looks different. Your experiences, your goals, and your chosen pace matter.
I believe therapy works best when it is a partnership. My role is not to tell you who to become, but to help you better understand yourself, challenge the beliefs that may be holding you back, and build the confidence and skills to move forward.
Your story is uniquely your own—your therapy should be too.

Dr. Yuye Zhang
Psychologist, PhD, MSW
Therapy can be a place to step away from the expectations and pressures that have shaped your life and make room for what you genuinely need. I work with adults who may look like they are doing well on the outside while privately feeling exhausted, disconnected, stuck, or unsure of what comes next. Together, we can explore what you are experiencing now as well as the patterns, relationships, and expectations that may be contributing to it. My practice is intentionally small so that I can be fully present and thoughtful in my work with each client. I aim to create a space where you can explore your experiences openly, better understand yourself, and find ways forward that feel meaningful and sustainable.

Jourdan Brickey Self-Reclamation After Survival
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
My work as a therapist centers on self-reclamation. The process of understanding how we become who we are through survival, responsibility, and relationship, and how we begin finding our way back to ourselves. Many of the people I work with are often highly capable on the outside but feel internally disconnected or uncertain about their needs, identity, or direction. In our work together, we explore the patterns that shaped you and begin building a life that feels more intentional, connected, and aligned with who you are today.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Finding a therapist shouldn’t feel overwhelming—or like a guessing game. At Nour Counseling, we take the time to actually listen before we match you, so you’re not left scrolling through profiles trying to figure it out on your own. We consider what you’re looking for, what you’ve experienced in past therapy (what worked and what didn’t), and the kind of connection you want to feel in the room. We’re also clear about our values—our clinicians are culturally responsive and affirming, and we hold space for clients navigating complex identities and sociopolitical realities without minimizing or dismissing them. Our goal is simple: to help you get connected to a therapist who not only has the right expertise, but who genuinely feels like a good fit.

What makes my practice, Metamorphosis Counseling and Wellness Collective PLLC, truly special is the heart, advocacy, and lived experience I bring into every session.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you rebuild self-esteem, strengthen relationships, and re-author your story with compassion and clarity.
