Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Asheville, NC

I am a License Clinical Addiction Specialist, License Clinical Mental Health Counselor, and a Certified Trauma Therapist II. I received my Master’s in Counseling from Longwood University. I have been working with those suffering from addiction and co-occurring disorders since 2011 in an outpatient and inpatient setting.

I am from Charlotte, NC where I was born and raised. To say that my childhood had it's challenges was an understatement. It was through overcoming those challenges that I discovered my heart for helping women heal. I graduated from Appalachian State University in 2011 having studied Psychology. I fell in love with the mountains and working with female survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. This spurred me onward to complete my Masters in Social Work from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in 2015. I have been a licensed therapist since 2016 and recently transitioned into private practice. I have a 3.5 year old son and we live happily in Weaverville, NC where we regularly hike, swim, and take in the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains that we are lucky to call home.

I hold two advanced degrees, Master of Social Work and Master of Science in Nursing Education. I integrate evidence-based modalities and techniques into my work based upon your needs. Some of the modalities I use are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness, and Somatic Experiencing. I was a holistic nurse for 15 years assisting clients with maximizing their physical, psychological, and/or spiritual health. As a licensed clinical social worker, I have worked with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, addiction, PTSD, complex trauma, and early childhood neglect or abuse. My clients are adults including those of diverse cultural, ethnic, and/or religious backgrounds.

Life is hard. Sometimes you need a helping hand to overcome challenges and to live your best life. I believe you have the ability and power to heal yourself and to improve your situation. My goal is to help you have a life filled with joy and meaning, whatever that looks like to you. I work with children, youth and adults who are struggling with their identity, their relationships, their beliefs, their emotions, their past, their work life, their academics, their athletic performance, and their life goals. People I have helped include those with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, neurodiversity, and gender expression issues.

I'm a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) offering a supportive, judgment-free space for children, teens, and adults. I specialize in helping clients work through trauma, anxiety, ADHD, and difficult life experiences. Using approaches such as EMDR, CBT, ACT, and DBT, I help clients better understand their experiences, develop practical coping skills, and move toward feeling more confident and in control. My goal is to provide a safe place where you feel heard, supported, and able to move forward.

Hello,

My name is Tamara and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in the state of North Carolina. I am also a Licensed Master's Social Worker in the state of Michigan. I received my MSW from Spring Arbor University in Michigan. I have clinical experience working with Marines, Sailors and spouses. I am a certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (ADC II) and certified in DBT. I know that life can be stressful, unpredictable and doesn't always go as planned. I look forward to working together.

I offer individual counseling to adults.

I’ve been practicing therapy for 25 years, which has included 12 years in NC and prior practice in both Kansas and New Mexico. I’ve worked in community mental health most of my career so I’ve had the opportunity to serve all ages and provide treatment for a huge variety of mental health concerns. I’m pretty down to Earth, open, honest, and genuine. I can be direct when needed to help bring awareness or light to a potential problem area while at the same time me providing support and encouragement. I enjoy hearing people’s life stories and helping individuals navigate their way through difficult life situations and problematic symptoms. No judgment, just a person available to help you find what you need.
