Grief counselors and therapists in Greensboro, NC

I'm Symone Lyles (she/her/hers), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). My work is grounded in the belief that you are the expert of your own healing. I’m here to guide and support steady, intentional growth at a pace that feels safe and authentic.

Like a turtle with its shell, you carry your protection wherever you go. I aim to create a space that balances comfort and challenge through connection, humor, and honesty while supporting you to come out of your shell.

My goal is to help clients develop greater awareness, resilience, and alignment between who they are and how they want to show up in the world.

My name is Alethia King, and I am a License Clinical Mental Health Counselor and an Advanced Certified Grief Specialist. I specialize in working with adults who struggle with grief and anxiety issues. I have 24 years of clinical experience. I help by providing education and support in the grief process. I utilize empathy and compassion during this difficult time. In our first few sessions, you can expect a relaxed atmosphere where we share your loss and how you have been coping with your loss.

A defining part of my therapy work is that I provide highly-personalized psychotherapy services for each of my clients. With almost 7 years of experience, I have tailored my focus on trauma and complex trauma in adults. Whether we use EMDR or talk-therapy, it is my goal as a therapist to learn about your story, witness you in your present reality, and help you build a more hopeful future.

I work with motivated individuals seeking relief from chronic pain as well as reduced stress and anxiety in their personal lives or at work. Chronic pain conditions that I treat include but are not limited to neck and back pain, headaches, pelvic pain, IBS, tinnitus, and fibromyalgia.

My approach is very goal and solution-oriented.

I work with teens and adults who are ready to better understand themselves, navigate life's challenges, and create meaningful, lasting change. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, burnout, parenting and family challenges, relationship concerns, grief, or major life transitions. Others may not have the words to describe what they're feeling. They simply know something needs to change and are looking for support, practical tools, and a fresh perspective.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing virtual therapy to teens and adults across North Carolina. I earned my bachelor's degree in social work from North Carolina Central University and my master's degree in social work from East Carolina University. For nearly a decade, I've had the privilege of working with individuals from diverse backgrounds in a variety of mental health settings, helping them navigate emotional, behavioral, and life challenges.

Most importantly, I want you to know that you don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. If you're willing to show up, we'll work together to help you better understand yourself, build on your strengths, and create meaningful change.

Hello, and congratulations on taking the very difficult first step of seeking help!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I believe that prioritizing mental health is a key component to living a happier, healthier life. While I have experience working with children, adolescents, teens, and adults, I primarily see clients 18+ who are struggling with various aspects of life, such as anxiety, depression, adjusting to changes, and grief, to name a few.
