I’m Alicia Battle, founder of Battle Mental Health, where healing, clarity, and personal transformation meet. As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina, my mission is to help individuals step into the fullest expression of who they are, using the mind as an instrument for alignment, growth, and powerful change.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Georgia State University and completed my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from North Carolina Central University. My specialty areas include Anxiety, Depression, Breakups, Separation/Divorce, Communication, Couples Counseling, Self-Discovery, Executive Counseling, and navigating unexpected life transitions.

Beyond the therapy room, I am deeply committed to leadership and developing others. One of the most rewarding parts of my role is mentoring professionals, teaching the foundations of a strong and ethical practice, and helping them strengthen both their skills and their confidence. In every leadership capacity I hold, my goal is to help people rise, lead with clarity, and step into the strongest version of themselves.

At the core of my work is a simple belief: your mind is your greatest asset. When guided, strengthened, and understood, it becomes the force that helps you reshape your patterns, elevate your resilience, and create a life rooted in intention and emotional freedom.

I received My Bachelor's degree in Environmental Health Science because I care so much about the Earth and the creatures that inhabit it. But I soon realized that if I was not interacting with people (or animals) that the work I was doing seemed irrelevant.

Then caring for my terminally ill stepmother led me first towards nursing, then to Social Work.

Since getting my MSW, I have worked In a wide variety of settings ranging from domestic violence shelters to a medical hospital to a homeless day center. I believe that despite our varied backgrounds and beliefs, we are all good at the core and want to be physically and emotionally healthy in order to make the most of our lives. Some of us have learned bad habits by being told, or telling ourselves, that certain things are not possible or us and that is rarely the case.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Chapel Hill

Finding the right therapist in Chapel Hill starts with getting clear on what kind of support you're looking for. Common reasons people seek therapy here include anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, and stress — though providers in the area also specialize in areas like ADHD, trauma and PTSD, grief, and couples counseling. Whether you're looking for a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), a licensed professional counselor (LPC), a psychologist, or a psychiatrist who can prescribe medication, Chapel Hill's provider community spans a wide range of credentials and approaches.

Once you have a sense of what you need, focus on the practical details that will keep you consistent with care: scheduling, session format, and location. Many therapists in Chapel Hill offer both in-person and virtual sessions, which can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week. Reading a provider's bio before booking can also help you understand their style and decide whether they feel like a good match.

Therapy in Chapel Hill can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session, and many people pay as low as $0 out of pocket. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to see estimated session costs upfront and confirm coverage before you book.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
