We can all benefit from gaining insights, learning skills, and having “tune ups” along the way.

Our therapists use various counseling approaches that include evidence based treatments l...
Anxiety, stress, and sadness are a normal part of life. At times these feelings can take over and inhabit multiple area's of life in a profoundly negative way. As a therapist, I offer an empathetic, non-judgmental, supportive, and encouraging space for emerging and young adults to explore area's of life that feel off. I work with my clients to understand the unique experiences brought to counseling. Treating someone as a person, not a diagnosis that needs to be fixed is essential in healing....

Perhaps you’ve been keeping your head above water in your day-to-day life, but find yourself worrying a lot or feeling stuck in a “funk."

While anxiety and depression may leave us feeling depleted, I believe that ...

In the beginning, clients typically tell me they can't stop thinking about food. They’re finding a large part of their day is dedicated to their next meal. They miss out on time with loved ones because the concern of what they will “be able” to eat is too strong. A lot of my clients find themselves in a dieting spiral. They “do good” for a while, and then they binge later, leading to feelings of shame and guilt. Most have heard confusing things about bodies throughout their lives. After some ha...

I approach our work together with a collaborative mindset. You are the expert of your life story and I am here to help you reach your goals and potential ...
Individual therapy for young women struggling through stress, life transitions, and self-doubt. My clients are exhausted. Despite being hard working, determined, and creative, they still feel stuck in a loop. When they first come to therapy, they feel like they’re drowning in a storm of stress, high expectations, and confusion about the path ahead. It’s a full time job keeping their head just above the rising water. They vacillate between feeling selfish & like a burden, powerful & po...

Our experience also includes work with high-risk behaviors, inclu...
Hi! My name is Tyania (ty-an-nuh) and I am a Black, queer, cisgender licensed therapist (LCMHCA) offering individual therapy at Healing Arts Collaborative in Durham, NC. My approach is rooted in the idea that profound healing occurs in the context of relationships. Our lives are dictated by the relationships that we do or don’t have, and a large part of how we discover ourselves is through reflection and feedback - being seen and understood by another. Being your authentic self can be challengin...
I view therapy as a unique, dynamic space between two people where an alliance is being formed. Clients often come my way frustrated by not being heard by health providers or mental health therapists who lack empathy, understanding, or who come off as judgmental. My job is to meet you in a place where you can feel deeply seen, heard, and understood....
Whatever brought you to consider therapy, know that you are not alone. Many of us struggle to manage intense emotions, connect deeply with others, meet our goals, live up to our expectations, accept ourselves, or find meaning in life. In a safe and supportive space you are free to express yourself openly, honestly, and authentically, and together we can work to discover the ways you would like your life to be different. The approach we take to implement those changes will be guided by your perso...
My primary goal as a counselor is to create an open and non-judgmental space in which clients can express their thoughts and feelings freely.

I aspire to gain a holistic understanding of my clients, their life experiences, and their issues, so that we might collectively explore opportunities for growth through evidence-based practice. I ...
