Do you only see clients in Charlotte, or also the suburbs?

I serve clients across the Charlotte metro—Ballantyne, South End, University City, Concord, Huntersville, Matthews, Gastonia, Pineville—and statewide via secure telehealth, so you can connect from anywhere in North Carolina.

Is online addiction counseling as effective as in-person sessions?

Yes. Studies show virtual counseling is comparable for most people. Through HIPAA-compliant telehealth you receive compassionate, evidence-based support with the same level of connection and accountability from home.

What are the benefits of online counseling for Charlotte residents?

Virtual sessions remove travel time, traffic stress, and scheduling barriers. You can meet from your office, home, or while traveling—making consistent support easier. Many clients feel more comfortable and open online.

How does living in Charlotte add to the stress of addiction?

Charlotte’s fast pace—long commutes, demanding Uptown roles, and balancing work and family—can increase stress and substance use as a coping tool. Counseling helps you build healthier strategies for relief and resilience.

Can I receive addiction counseling if I travel often or live outside North Carolina part-time?

Yes. As long as you are physically located in North Carolina at the time of your session, you can connect virtually from anywhere in the state. Frequent travelers and seasonal residents often find telehealth especially flexible.

Is counseling available if I have a busy Charlotte schedule?

Yes. Evening and weekend telehealth options make it possible to get support even with long hours in Uptown or frequent work travel.

What types of addiction do you help with in Charlotte?

I support individuals struggling with alcohol, opioids, prescription medications, marijuana, stimulants, and other substances. Care is tailored to your needs and goals.

Are there recovery resources in Charlotte you can connect me to?

Yes. I can help you connect with local AA/NA meetings, SMART Recovery groups, and other community supports throughout Charlotte and surrounding areas—plus virtual options when helpful.

Need More Than Standard Weekly Counseling?

For some people, weekly counseling is enough. For others, it simply isn’t. If you find yourself making progress in sessions but struggling to maintain momentum between appointments, you’re not alone. Many adults reach a point where once-a-week therapy does not provide enough structure, accountability, or support to interrupt ongoing patterns related to substance use, relapse risk, or emotional dysregulation.

You may need more than standard weekly counseling if:

You feel stable during sessions but overwhelmed the rest of the week
Cravings or urges resurface quickly after appointments
You’ve had repeated relapse or near-relapse cycles
Motivation fades without consistent accountability
Emotional regulation feels manageable briefly, then collapses
You know what to do but struggle to follow through consistently

Needing more support does not mean you’ve failed therapy. It usually means your nervous system, habits, or environment require more repetition, structure, and connection than weekly sessions can provide. For individuals who need additional support but do not require inpatient or residential treatment, a Structured Outpatient Addiction Program (SOAP) may be an appropriate next step. SOAP provides multiple therapist-led group sessions each week, predictable structure, and accountability while allowing you to remain connected to work, family, and daily life.

If you’re unsure whether weekly counseling is sufficient or if a higher level of structure would be helpful, this can be discussed together during an initial consultation.
