Managing OCD symptoms like contamination fears, checking behaviors, and handwashing rituals doesn't have to be isolating. Headway's Charlotte network includes specialized providers offering Cognitive Therapy, I-CBT, and medication management to help you regain control. Many clients save 75% on sessions through insurance.
Therapy and the journey to self-exploration can be hard. Together, we can navigate your path toward improved mental health and emotional well-being. My approach is solution-focused, centered on the immediate obstacles you are facing. While how you got here matters, what you choose to do next can have an even greater impact. As a clinical social worker with experience across private practice, hospital social work, parenting education, and community care, I bring a broad range of experience to support us in working through challenges together.

I have been in private practice for 20 years with my specialty focusing on individuals resolving historic traumas and women balancing all of the complications of womanhood in a fast paced, demanding world. My style is informed from my diverse experience. I have worked in adolescent residential treatment, FBI consulting, an expert witness and a graduate school professorship; all the while working with my private practice clients.

I am Theresa Abbah, a board-certified Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner based in Smithfield, North Carolina, with over 27 years of experience in nursing and mental health care. My professional journey has been deeply rooted in psychiatry, where I have developed a broad and comprehensive clinical skill set focused on delivering compassionate, patient-centered care.
I spent more than 15 years working as a psychiatric nurse in an inpatient state mental health facility, which provided a strong foundation in managing complex mental health conditions. I am proud to have been one of the pioneers involved in establishing Youth Behavioral Health services, helping guide its successful accreditation and commitment to maintaining high standards of care.
As a Nurse Practitioner, I have advanced my practice working in both youth and adult inpatient behavioral health settings, including roles with UNC Youth Behavioral Health Hospital in Butner and UNC Johnston Health. I specialize in diagnosing and managing a wide range of mental health disorders, conducting crisis assessments, and providing timely referrals for individuals of all ages experiencing psychiatric, substance use, neurocognitive, or developmental challenges.
In 2018, I independently developed an alternative psychotherapy-based psychosocial treatment program to support patients in crisis at UNC Wakebrook, reflecting my commitment to innovation in mental health care.
I bring a positive attitude, creativity, and a high level of dedication to my work, consistently striving to deliver evidence-based care to patients and their families. My clinical strengths include psychopharmacology, psychotherapy, crisis stabilization, maintenance treatment and leadership, all of which guide my mission to improve mental health outcomes and support individuals on their path to recovery.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, you don't have to figure it out alone.
I help adults work through anxiety, ADHD, depression, and the stress of big life transitions so you can move forward with more clarity, confidence, and a renewed sense of direction.
I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with over a decade of clinical experience, and I bring a calm, grounded presence to the work.
My background spans trauma-informed care, support for college students building self-advocacy and success strategies (especially those with learning differences), and extensive work with the military community — including wounded warriors and their families.
Whether you're navigating a career or life change, managing attention or focus challenges, working through anxiety or depression, or facing relationship stress, I offer a safe, collaborative space where real growth is possible.
Clients often describe me as warm, real, non-judgmental, and direct in a supportive way. I'm LGBTQIA+ affirming and welcome people from all backgrounds with a spirit of inclusion and care.

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right OCD therapist in Charlotte starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Obsessive-compulsive disorder involves a cycle of intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions), and treatment approaches often include specialized talk therapy; a qualified mental health professional can help determine what may be appropriate for you. Not every therapist has training in ERP, so looking for a provider who lists OCD as a primary specialty — rather than one of many — can make a meaningful difference.
Charlotte has a range of mental health providers across neighborhoods like SouthPark, Ballantyne, University City, and NoDa, including therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists. If you're unsure where to start, a qualified healthcare professional can assess your symptoms, discuss treatment options, and help you decide on a care plan. Some people benefit from working with both. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach, training, and whether they're a good match for your specific concerns.
OCD therapy in Charlotte can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many people pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who specializes in OCD and accepts your coverage.
