Our counselors offer counseling for teens in Cary, NC

I earned my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with an emphasis in Substance Use Disorders from Colorado Christian University. My experience includes interning at an opioid outpatient facility and I'm eager to bring that foundation into private practice. I work with adolescents and adults up to middle age and I'm interested in treating anxiety, mood disorders, personality disorders, developmental issues, and relationship concerns. I also offer faith-based counseling and help people find meaning and purpose. Everyone deserves a space to process what's hard, whether they're in crisis or just need someone to talk to.

Person-Centered Counseling guides how I build relationships with clients and reminds me that each person is unique. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address faulty thinking and negative beliefs, Emotion-Focused Therapy when issues are emotional, and Attachment theory to explore how family relationships shape the way we see ourselves and the world.

Mental health challenges can be hard and lonely to walk through—I've been there myself, and I'm blessed to have come out of it. I want to help you on your journey. In our sessions, you'll be accepted as you are and free to move at your own pace. I won't push any approach on you; I want you to feel like you have a real say in the direction we go.

Hi, I'm Adrianna Garcia, MSW, LCSWA, in North Carolina with experience in behavioral health, healthcare, and community-based settings. Before becoming a therapist, I was a student-athlete, which gave me a personal understanding of pressure, discipline, balance, confidence, and resilience. I work with teens and adults who may be dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, low motivation, or feeling overwhelmed and stuck. Many are looking for a safe and supportive space to talk, better ways to cope, and guidance as they work toward feeling more confident, balanced, and in control of their lives.

My approach is supportive, practical, and centered around you. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Motivational Interviewing to help you build coping skills and create realistic goals for change. Therapy with me is a comfortable, judgment-free space where we work at a pace that feels right for you.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you're already carrying a lot. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and comfortable throughout. You don't have to have everything figured out before you begin. If you're ready to work toward positive change and a healthier, more balanced life, I invite you to schedule an appointment.
