Our therapists offer addiction counseling in Charlotte, NC

Hello! My name is Jenna Aiken. I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor. I work with clients in North Carolina via telehealth. I have a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a certificate in Addiction Counseling. I have an undergraduate degree in Psychology. My professional work experience includes private counseling practice, emergency department crisis assessment, community mental health, substance abuse treatment, and domestic violence prevention. My clinical focus is women, especially mothers, who are experiencing anxiety, depression, or identity shifts.

I believe in meeting clients where they are and creating a warm, supportive environment in which women feel safe to explore themselves and their world. I view clients through a holistic lens. My goal is to empower clients to work through their concerns in the therapy session while they are building a more supportive lifestyle outside the therapy session.

Life can be challenging at times but you are not alone. Healing and growth are possible no matter what you have experienced. If you want support working on your therapeutic goals, please reach out to work with me and schedule an initial assessment. Talk soon!

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Trauma Professional with 4+ years of clinical and 15+ years of experience. Licensed in North Carolina, I work with young and older adults, veterans, and those with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, ADHD, grief, and relationship issues. I specialize in childhood trauma using evidence-based practices. From personal experience, I understand healing. Therapy means understanding who you've been, honoring what helped you survive, and becoming who you are. In our work, expect compassionate, supportive, collaborative care helping you move from surviving to living grounded and intentional.

My approach is trauma-informed, compassionate, and collaborative. I specialize in childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief and loss,ADHD, and relationships. Together we identify limiting patterns and develop healthier coping skills. Expect supportive, nonjudgmental space at your pace. My goal is helping you feel grounded, empowered, and intentional.

Healing does not mean forgetting what you've been through; it means your past does not define your future. You deserve a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. I would be honored to walk alongside you toward healing, self-awareness, and balance. If ready, please schedule an appointment now. You do not navigate this journey alone.
