Tierra McManus

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I earned my Master of Science Degrees in School Counseling and Clinical Mental Health Counseling, as well as a Master's level certificate in Marriage and Family Counseling from North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University in 2017. I use an eclectic therapeutic approach which is tailored to the individual needs of each client. I believe that counseling is a fundamental tool that we should all have access to. It is important for everyone to have the necessary tools to cope, manage, and work through life’s challenges. As long as you are willing to do the work, nothing is impossible.

Ashley Eldridge

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Wilmington, NC


I approach sessions as an experienced professional and a real person. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as your full, uncensored self—say the hard things, the messy things, even the things you’re not sure how to put into words—and still feel accepted, heard, and supported. Many people reach out to me feeling overwhelmed by everyday stress, big world events, or the sense that things keep changing without much warning. It can feel like there’s no escape from stress, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Therapy can be a place to slow down, breathe, share humor, & talk things through with someone who’s really listening. My career spans 20+ years in mental health, addiction treatment, and disability services.

Psychologist

I truly enjoy helping people to overcome disruptive and difficult emotions and reactions. I received my PhD from Duke University and was fortunate enough to train post-doctorally with Dr. Albert Ellis, the father of cognitive therapy, who taught me to approach all problems with optimism and kindness. I have been practicing for over 40 years and have the pleasure of seeing many clients discover their own power over their emotional state.
