Therapists for college students near Durham, NC

Hello! I'm Jacobia Williams, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with a passion for helping others to live their best lives. I've worked as a social worker in settings such as therapeutic foster care, hospitals, counseling, and schools for the last 20 years. My goal is to support you on your life's journey. We are all unique and have stories to tell, but it is important to be the narrator of that story. Many of us have faced challenges with our health, jobs, families, and relationships. Many have lost loved ones, felt overwhelmed, and have been stressed out. Often times, our loved ones and children may be feeling those stressors also. We want to teach ourselves and children that it is important to take care of our physical and emotional health. Seeking help to fine tune our coping skills is a courageous act. Allow me the opportunity to partner with you in developing the skills and tools needed to navigate your world. We want to assist you with living a healthy and happy life.

I am Dr. Garraway. I am a helper and I have a knack for finding remote and unexpected places to reinvigorate in touch. One secret of success is always being myself, colloquial, informal, and humorous. While evidence-based, I counsel from the familiar, practical, and everyday examples. My practice is 100% remote but still 100% warm, compassionate, and human. Here you will find a mental health psychotherapist, who specializes in substance-use treatment for adults and couples. I teach you how to listen to and honor the various parts of yourself that seek a voice, whether that be a thought, feeling, or observation, while challenging self-limiting beliefs, using a kind and loving approach that is transferable to other life challenges.

I specialize in working with men, women, teenagers, and boys (6+). If this is you, it is my goal to help you overcome the barriers and problems in your life that are keeping you from experiencing the freedom you are desiring. Often times, these problems are the result of trauma from childhood that is still unresolved. Difficulties that we experience early in life often stay with us into adulthood, creating a a myriad of problems including depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction (sexual, drug/alcohol, work), sexual abuse, lack of self confidence, relationship issues, negative coping habits, physical or auto-immune disorders, & more. In my practice, I utilize a number of trauma informed approaches such as Attachment Focused EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Somatic Experiencing (SE), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you resolve these early childhood traumas. I believe you can overcome these barriers to experience more peace, joy, and freedom in your life. You can heal. And it would be an honor for me to assist you on this journey. Send me a message for a free 20 minute consultation. (I am not working with insurance right now). See more at www.taylorhouchens.com

As a recent graduate, I am aware of the difficulties that come with being a college student. It is very important that you have someone who can be a listening ear and guidance through struggles. I believe that it is necessary for the counseling relationship to be empathetic, safe, and non-judgmental. I aim to provide a safe and supportive space to collaborate and work at your own pace to reach goals. I hope to empower my clients through heightening self-confidence and utilizing strengths as well as enhancing one’s accountability for behaviors. Through the counseling relationship, we can facilitate change.

You make it look so easy, but you are tired. Whether at work, at school, with family or with friends, you are often the person keeping everything together. No matter the task, you will get it done, but it has been exhausting putting your feelings and needs aside for the sake of everyone else. You know you need something different, but you aren’t sure what. The thought of saying “no” or revealing that you don’t have it all together is too scary. Oftentimes liberation is on the other side of scary… and you deserve liberation! I have a relaxed & casual approach. I believe genuine human connection is foundational to mental health and that with the encouragement of an authentic relationship, a judgement-free space, & a willingness to be vulnerable- you can freely explore new ways of engaging with the world. I want to help you find that “something different” you've been looking for. Let's create a space where you don’t have to have it all together. A place where you can take a rest from all the juggling you’ve been doing. If any of this resonates, let’s connect. Therapy doesn’t have to be daunting–it’s a journey, but we will take it on together. You’ve got this. You already know what you need– so let’s help you get there!

Much of the time we feel we should have it all together. We have to know who we are, have a career path, a life plan, walk the straight and narrow. But you may feel you are standing on the edge of a cliff and fear jumping into an abyss. Or your path is filled with roadblocks. You may feel unfulfilled by the path you started but afraid to be different, or make a change. Traumatic events out of your control may be keeping you from feeling whole, feeling yourself, feeling worthy. Or the stresses, unpredictability, and injustices of life just wane on you. You seek a place to process, grow, and be your whole self. I provide an environment of cultural humility with culturally, spiritually, and trauma responsive therapy. I meet you where you are and work with you to understand where you want to go, who you are now and who you want to be, how you feel now and how you want to feel. I am direct but compassionate and encouraging. If you are ready to take a step towards healing, personal growth, making a change, or just need a safe place to process daily life, my door is open. You don’t have to have it all together, or be walking the straight and narrow. You are welcome, just as you are. We will navigate whatever path or road you seek together.

I am the Adultingcounselor! Let me help you figure out this thing called "Life". Going through a battle on your own is the norm (for some of us) but are “you” ready to change that narrative and create the life you deserve and desire. As you are adulting, we face hardships, both big and small. I believe that being an adult doesn’t stop you from being trapped/stuck in situations that are sometimes hard to face or get out of. Unfortunately, if these issues aren’t addressed, they can and will control our lives. When you change your thoughts, you change your life! We will discover your concerns about your purpose, both personally and professionally. Exploring and identifying your true self and meaning in life. Let me help you understand and manage unresolved issues, such as stress, burnout, financial stress, loss of sense of self, and more. Helping adults (18-30) navigate through counseling successfully, learn skills, and accomplish the life they want to live is my passion. We can’t stop how life happens, but we can change how we view it. If this is you, a family member, or someone you know. Let's get started today!
