Hi! I'm Kristan Seaford, and I have been a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor for over 20 years. I got my BA in English and Psychology from Duke University and a MA in Counseling from Wake Forest University.

However, it is my "on the job" training that has proven to be invaluable. I began my career working as a college counselor; then I became a play therapist in a private practice. Finally, in 2016, I realized one of my life's biggest dreams. I opened my own practice!

Georgianna Lazarus

Georgianna Lazarus

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Winston-Salem, NC


During my decade as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have helped clients of all backgrounds cope with trauma and improve their lives. I have helped clients of all backgrounds cope with trauma and improve their lives. My specialties include depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma/abuse, parenting concerns, and such women's health issues as infertility, maternal depression, and PCOS. My practice also concentrates on stress management and navigating issues related to one's family of origin. Cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness lie at the heart of my therapeutic approach. I value being present in the moment with an individual as they learn to cope with their struggle.


Realizing that one size does not fit all, I emphasize a multi-culturally competent, humanistic, and person-centered approach that is goal-centered, strengths-based, and holistic. I am passionate about neurodevelopment and enjoy incorporating brain science into my work. I embrace the idea that a sense of humor can help in healing.


Life can be difficult and traumatic. But I believe we have a saving grace: our innate wiring for connection. I consider a strong therapeutic relationship to be the foundation for positive change. I hope to build relationships that begin with an open mind and honest acceptance of where you are in life. You are worthy of the positive change you seek.

NOW ACCEPTING AND SERVING CHILDREN!! Have you ever felt lost or lonely while in a familiar or crowed place? Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations. I first developed a passion for therapy when I hit a roadblock in my own life and was struggling to move past it. I specialize in helping people identify and achieve their personal goals by coping with the issues that are causing them distress, anxiety, and discomfort.


Unfortunately, life doesn't always allow us to be the best version of ourselves. With my help, you'll learn about acceptance and how to exert your power of choice over whatever life may throw at you. I take great pride in the progress and success of my clients.


My job is to give you the tools and techniques to achieve a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle. After several sessions, you will become well-versed at handling issues whenever and wherever they arise. Let's work together to put your life back in focus. I look forward to working with you.

Virtual & in-person • Asheville, NC


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. In the last several years, I have been sought out as a corporate consultant and speaker to discuss how our negative experiences and traumas shape our behaviors as high intensity professionals.

The untapped magnificence I see in my clients never ceases to inspire and amaze me. Anyone who is willing to do hard work is already a gift to this World! I've grown bored of many things in my life but this work....never!

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 Cornelius

Finding the right therapist in Cornelius, NC starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you want help with a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or a life transition — or whether you're looking for more general support. From there, look for a licensed provider (such as an LCMHC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist) who has experience in that area. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they feel like a good fit before you book.

Cornelius is part of the larger Lake Norman and Charlotte metro area, which means you have access to providers based locally as well as those in nearby towns like Davidson, Huntersville, and Mooresville. Many therapists in this area offer both in-person and virtual sessions, giving you more flexibility with scheduling. If virtual care works better for your routine, you can connect with any provider licensed in North Carolina from wherever you are in the state.

Therapy in the Charlotte metro area can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most straightforward ways to lower your costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. That makes it easier to find a provider who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
