I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (Supervisor) and also a Certified Health Coach. I have been working in the mental health field for over 10 years. I especially enjoy working with adolescents, adults and couples. I have worked with individuals on a wide array of issues such as, but not limited to, family issues, divorce, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, personality disorders, self-esteem issues, woman’s issues, parenting skills and health and wellness related concerns. I also provide LCMHCA supervision and currently have openings to provide supervision. Using an eclectic approach, which combines Person-Centered, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Reality Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Counseling and Gottman Method (for couples), I adapt the theoretical styles to meet the diverse needs of clients. I also believe it is important to meet the client where they are at and treating the whole person. I believe that together my clients and I will explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We will work on identifying and developing strengths, overcoming challenges and obstacles, and setting goals and taking the steps to reach those goals.  ​ To Schedule: info@hartintegratedwellness.comre...

I’m someone who has always been deeply curious about people — how we heal, how we grow, and how we remember who we truly are beneath all the noise. At heart, I’m both a scientist and a seeker. I love understanding the brain and behavior just as much as I love exploring consciousness, meaning, and the invisible threads that connect us all. My life has been a blend of psychology, personal growth, spirituality, and everyday human experience — learning not only from books and degrees, but from motherhood, relationships, challenges, and the quiet moments that shape us from the inside out. Storytelling has always been part of how I make sense of the world. I’m a children’s book author, with another book on the way, inspired by my love for helping young minds feel empowered, curious, and connected to themselves. I’ve also had the unique honor of serving as an assistant producer on a spiritual documentary that later found its way onto Netflix — a project that beautifully bridged science, consciousness, and the deeper questions we all carry about life and purpose. Outside of my professional world, I’m a mom, a horse and dog-lover, a traveler, and a lifelong learner. I find joy in simple things — morning coffee, deep conversations, laughter with my kids, and long walks to reset and reflect. I believe growth doesn’t have to be dramatic or complicated; often it’s simply choosing to show up more honestly and fearlessly each day. Everything I do, personally and professionally, is guided by the same intention: to live consciously, love deeply, and help others trust themselves enough to create lives that feel aligned, meaningful, and truly their own.

Hi, I’m Emilee, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate with a heart for helping people navigate life’s hardest moments. I earned my degree from Tulane University, where I focused on trauma—especially disaster and collective trauma. Before stepping into clinical work, I served as a first responder, spending years in 9-1-1 centers in both Durham and Western North Carolina. Those experiences shaped not only my career but also my understanding of resilience, community, and the importance of care during crisis. In my practice, I enjoy using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to support clients in reconnecting with their values, building self-compassion, and finding new ways forward. I'm trained in Critical Incident Stress Management, and enjoy helping though debriefings and responding during crisis events. I’m also pursuing additional training in Brainspotting to deepen my ability to help people process and heal from trauma. Outside of work, my world is full of family and creativity. I love spending time with my husband, our two kids (16 and 9), and our family cat, Bigglins. We recently moved back to Cary after a decade of life on an orchard with a small hobby farm—a season full of hard work, laughter, and lessons in simplicity. These days, you’ll often find me on the ball field cheering for my daughter, supporting my son in his academic and leadership adventures, in my craft room, or curled up with a good book. I bring not only professional training but also lived experience to my work. Alongside my background in emergency services and healthcare roles (yes, even as a CNA and a mail carrier!), I’ve walked through my own health journey with hEDS, POTS, food addiction, and bariatric surgery, as well as caregiving for loved ones facing chronic illness and end-of-life care. These experiences give me a deep appreciation for the strength it takes to face life’s challenges—and a commitment to supporting others as they find their way through. Thanks for being here—I’m glad you found your way to this space. To Schedule: info@hartintegratedwellness.com

Welcome! I am passionate about creating a space where children, teens, and their families feel accepted, understood, and empowered. I specialize in working with neurodivergent individuals, particularly those with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). My approach is rooted in understanding each child’s unique experiences, strengths, and challenges while providing practical support for emotional regulation, behavioral concerns, and social interactions. I take a warm, collaborative, and creative approach to therapy, meeting each child where they are. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), play-based, and art-based techniques, I tailor sessions to fit each child’s unique strengths and challenges.

Growing up can be magical, messy, exciting, and overwhelming — sometimes all before lunchtime. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate (LCSW-A), I am passionate about creating a space where children and adolescents can untangle big feelings, build confidence, and discover their inner strengths in a way that feels safe and empowering. I believe every child has a unique story, and sometimes they just need a supportive place to tell it, whether through words, play, art, laughter, or even silence. My role is not to “fix,” but to walk alongside your child with curiosity, compassion, and care as they navigate anxiety, big emotions, friendship struggles, life transitions, grief, trauma, self-esteem challenges, or behavioral concerns. Grounded in person-centered therapy and CBT, I combine warmth and collaboration with practical, skill-building strategies tailored to each child’s unique needs. With a background in inpatient facilities, after-school programs, and crisis settings, I have experience supporting children and adolescents experiencing acute mental health challenges. These experiences strengthened my ability to remain calm, compassionate, and grounded during difficult moments while reinforcing my belief in the resilience of young people. Whether a child is navigating everyday stressors or more intensive emotional struggles, I bring a steady, supportive presence and a deep commitment to their safety and well-being. My goal is to create a therapeutic environment that feels warm, engaging, and genuine, a place where children feel seen, heard, and accepted just as they are. I strive to help your child not only navigate current challenges but also build the tools and confidence they can carry with them into the future. Through our work together, I hope to foster emotional awareness, resilience, and self-trust so they feel better equipped to handle life’s ups and downs. Therapy is not just about getting through difficult moments, it is about helping children grow into empowered, capable individuals who understand their strengths and feel confident using them.

Hello! My name is Alex Krassin and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina and Wyoming. I've been working in the mental health field since I graduated with my Bachelors in Social Work in 2013. I graduated from the University of South Dakota with my Master's degree and lived abroad for over a year. The past 8 years, I've been a mental health therapist working with children, families, and individuals.

Seeking therapy is an intentional and courageous step toward becoming more fully yourself, while gently releasing the negative patterns, beliefs, and narratives that no longer support the life you want to live. It’s a space where growth is honored, where healing unfolds at your own pace, and where letting go can be just as powerful as moving forward. I would be honored to support you in rediscovering your inner resilience, reconnect with your authentic self, and cultivate a life rooted in clarity, compassion, and meaningful change. As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (LCMHCA), my style is person-centered,trauma-informed, and holistic.

Likewise, my PhD in Communication deeply shapes the way I show up as a counselor. It allows me to attune not only to what is being said, but also to what may be felt, implied, or held in silence, helping us gently uncover patterns in relationships, meaning-making, and emotional expression. Thank you for taking this brave step, and I look forward to supporting you! To Schedule: Info@hartintegratedwellness.com

Hey there, I’m Rebecca and I would be honored to walk with you along your path to wellness! I am both a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina and a National Certified Counselor. I earned a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialization in Marriage and Couples Counseling from Walden University.

I am particularly passionate about empowering women and normalizing our hormonal shifts and experiences.

I want to personally welcome you to the beginning of your therapy journey, and tell you how proud of you I am that you are taking this first step. From a young age, I’ve been drawn to understanding people at their core- what shaped them, what has hurt them, and what brings them hope. That curiosity and compassion are what guide my work as a therapist. I help clients explore the “why” behind their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so they can gain insight, acceptance, and the tools to move forward. I welcome you exactly as you are into my space, so that we can work together to work through whatever has brought you to therapy. My goal is to create a safe and judgment-free space, where you can show up exactly as you are. I’ll meet you there-with warmth, authenticity, empathy, and respect- and walk with you as you grow into the most grounded, resilient version of yourself. I am happy to welcome and affirm those in the LGBTQIA+ community, those in the neurodivergent community, and those of all cultural backgrounds. I take a holistic and collaborative approach, using techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based practices. I also utilize play-therapy and art-therapy based techniques as needed. I support clients in exploring how their physical, emotional, mental, and even spiritual health intersect to impact their well-being. In addition, I am Somatic Trauma Therapy Certified. While traditional talk therapy focuses on the what and the why, somatic trauma therapy focuses on how the what and the why show up for you. I believe that your body carries the story of your life, often holding onto experiences that your mind is still trying to process. As a certified Somatic Trauma Therapist, I help you bridge the gap between your thoughts and your physical sensations. We won’t just talk about your anxiety or your past; we will look at how your nervous system is responding to them in real-time. By learning to listen to your body’s signals- the tightness in your chest, the shallow breath, or the restorative sigh- we work together to regulate your nervous system and find a genuine sense of safety from the inside out. In my free time, I love to surround myself with my friends and family, go to yoga, read, be in nature, and travel. I am also a cat mom!

I believe that we all face different struggles throughout life, whether they stem from past trauma, self-esteem challenges, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, or simply the weight of everyday stress. Often, we don’t know how to face these challenges. Sometimes, because we lack the tools, and sometimes because we doubt our ability to overcome them. I also believe that deep down, we each hold the answers we need. My role as a counselor is to help you find the space, support, and confidence to unlock those answers within yourself. Before becoming a counselor, I spent several years working with families in both public and private schools as a special educator. After starting my own family, I found myself reflecting deeply on what I wanted life and parenting to look like. My work supporting growing families through birth work further shaped my understanding of connection and resilience. Then, after my own experience with postpartum anxiety, I realized how powerful it can be to feel seen, supported, and guided during difficult transitions. That experience inspired me to become a counselor, so I could offer that same compassion and support to others. I have a passion for supporting children, adolescents, and adults to build confidence, connection, and self-awareness. Using play and relational approaches, I support children and their parents in communication, processing their emotions, and problem-solving. I am especially passionate about working with children who have ADHD or Autism and their families. I help adolescents and adults navigate identity, relationships, stress, and life changes, creating space to process emotions, build coping skills, and find balance and confidence. As a counselor, I aim to create a safe, inclusive, and collaborative space where you can explore your story and connect with your authentic self. My approach is client-centered, meaning therapy is a partnership where we work together to uncover what healing and growth look like for you. My approach is grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS), grounded in the belief that we all hold many inner “parts” that strive to protect and guide us. I integrate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotion- Focused Therapy (EFT), and attachment theory, adapting to meet your individual needs. I also approach my work through a feminist lens, acknowledging how systemic and societal factors can shape our lived experiences. To Schedule: info@hartintegratedwellness.com

I believe that every person is a human being with a story, strengths, struggles, and hopes. As a person-centered clinician, my guiding principle is to meet you exactly where you are — with warmth, presence, and genuine curiosity. My goal is to walk alongside you as you reconnect with your strengths, uncover new perspectives, help you make sense of what’s happening, and empower you to move towards a more balanced, fulfilling life.  ​ I approach therapy from a place of genuine humanity by meeting clients as one person to another. At the heart of my work is the therapeutic relationship, built on trust, warmth, and authenticity. You don’t have to have it all figured out; we’ll take it one step at a time, together. ​ In our work, you can expect a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can show up as you are, and genuine collaboration as we set goals and explore new ways of thinking. My approach is flexible and rooted in person-centered values, as therapy is not a one size fits all. I utilize a strengths perspective, and draw from evidence based practice to include ACT, DBT, CBT, and brief solution-focused therapy to fit your unique needs. I focus on the whole person—mind, body, relationships, culture, and values—because all parts of your story matter. ​ Outside of session, I’m someone who loves to travel and discover new places, spend time with my family and friends, and read. I have recently picked up running and love finding new hobbies to try! I have a Bachelor's Degree in Sociology from University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and my Master's Degree in Social Work from Fayetteville State University. I am currently a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate, and I am taking my clinical exam this fall. ​ If you’ve been looking for a therapist who is warm, accepting, and genuinely committed to walking beside you, I’d be honored to be that for you. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to take one step.  ​ I look forward to meeting you! ​ To Schedule: info@hartintegratedwellness.com

Hi, I’m Kendall! I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of North Carolina Wilmington in 2023 and am currently finishing my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Liberty University, with plans to graduate in December. I have experience working with children through Applied Behavioral Analysis and as a teacher for upper elementary students.

I’m especially interested in working with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and the impact of traumatic experiences. In sessions, I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients work toward their goals in a way that feels practical and empowering. Creating a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space is very important to me. I want you to feel heard, understood, and comfortable being yourself, and I believe a strong therapeutic relationship is key to meaningful change.
