De'Lisa Hill

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


"Welcome to my virtual couch—where breath steadies, the heart softens, and the journey unfolds, I am De'Lisa Hill, let’s walk it together.” Here, your story is met with compassion, curiosity, and clinical wisdom. Together, we’ll revive what’s been withered, rebuild what’s been worn down, reveal what’s been hidden beneath the surface, and move toward restoration with intention.

For more than 18 years, I have walked with adolescents (16-20), adults (21-90), couples, and leaders through seasons of transition, healing, and rebuilding. My approach blends clinical precision with deep compassion. Clients describe my presence as grounding, clarifying, and restorative — a space where they can exhale, be fully seen, and begin again without shame or pressure.

I help you untangle the internal knots created by stress, trauma, relational ruptures, identity confusion, and life transitions. Whether you’re navigating emotional overwhelm, burnout, marital/couples' strain, spiritual fatigue, or the quiet ache of feeling “stuck,” my role is to help you reconnect with your clarity, your agency, and your capacity to thrive.

Ruth Eslinger

Ruth Eslinger

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I know how hard it is to learn to talk about difficult things. That made me want to help others learn to do the same. I started by volunteering at rape crisis and domestic violence shelters. When I was at these places I did outreach in the community and ran support groups for both. For a time, I took rape crisis hospital calls to support people who had come in for sexual assault exams. This work that taught me to be comfortable talking about anything, at any time, with anyone. I have worked with all types of individuals from ages 12 and up. My first Masters was an intensive dive into Human Rights. My second Masters was in Counseling so I could work with individuals to help them beyond the crisis moments. My passion is to help people progress towards healing.

Hi, I'm Amanda! I know it can be tough looking for a new therapist, and I hope you find someone you connect with! I may be the right fit if you're looking for someone who: listens and engages with you, creates a space where you can be yourself, validates but also challenges at times, and recognizes the impact of the state of the world, societal expectations, & trauma on your mental health.
