Hi, I’m Elda-Rosa “Dr. El.” I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist (LCAS) in North Carolina, as well as a Clinical Consultant and Certified Professional Coach serving clients nationwide.

I believe healing happens when people feel seen, heard, and understood — not judged. My work is grounded in compassion, cultural awareness, and real-life experience, helping individuals navigate grief, trauma, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, and substance use recovery with honesty and support.

At 12Evolve, I believe healing and personal growth are lifelong processes. Whether you are navigating grief, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, or recovery, meaningful change often begins with self-awareness, support, and the courage to take the next step forward. ✨

Hi there, I’m Melissa. If life feels heavy right now, you’re in the right place.

When you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or exhausted from carrying everything on your own, it can be difficult to know where to start. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, substance use, and other life challenges who are seeking meaningful, lasting change and a greater sense of balance and well-being.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide virtual therapy for adults throughout North Carolina via Telehealth, offering a supportive space where you can explore what’s weighing on you, build on your strengths, and work toward the life you want to create. You don’t have to navigate all of this on your own. If you’re ready for support and a space to feel heard, I’m here to help you take the next step.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Lenoir, NC


Ever feel like your brain just won't cooperate? You know what you need to do, but you can't make yourself do it. You lose things, forget things, start projects you never finish — and you've probably been told to just try harder.

That gets old.

I'm Rodney. I'm a board-certified PMHNP and I work exclusively with adults who think they might have ADHD — or who already know they do and need a provider who actually gets it. ADHD is all I do, which means I'm not guessing.

I'll be straight with you: I talk to my patients like people, not cases. I want to know what your life actually looks like — your job, your relationships, what's driving you crazy — because that's how we figure out what's going to help.

I'm a veteran, and if that's part of your story too, you'll feel that in how I communicate. Direct, no fluff, no runaround.

I see adults across all of North Carolina via telehealth, seven days a week. If this sounds like what you've been looking for, just reach out.

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.
