Services

  • At Inspirit Behavioral Health, we support individuals navigating a broad range of emotional and psychological challenges. Whether you’re facing relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, life transitions, or simply seeking greater self-awareness, we provide a safe, compassionate space to explore what matters most to you. Our care is tailored to honor your unique story and foster resilience, balance, and a deeper sense of wellbeing.

  • We understand how overwhelming anxiety and depression can feel—and how isolating it can be. Our therapists work with care and curiosity to help you uncover what’s beneath the surface, develop coping strategies that feel empowering, and reconnect with a sense of clarity, hope, and self-compassion.

  • We understand that struggles with eating and body image often go far deeper than food or appearance. Whether you're navigating disordered eating, chronic dieting, or body shame, our approach is affirming, respectful, and rooted in the belief that healing is possible. We support clients in building a compassionate relationship with their body, food, and sense of self.

  • OCD can be exhausting, often filled with intrusive thoughts and compulsions that feel out of control. At Inspirit, we work collaboratively with clients to understand the distress behind these patterns and to reduce their grip over time. Our goal is to help you reclaim agency, clarity, and freedom from cycles that no longer serve you.

  • Substance use can become a way of coping with deeper emotional pain, shame, or disconnection. At Inspirit, we offer a nonjudgmental space to explore your relationship with substances and what you want for your future. We support clients in their recovery—whether that means harm reduction, sobriety, or redefining what healing looks like on their own terms.

  • Trauma can shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world—and it often lives in the body as much as the mind. At Inspirit, we approach trauma work with great care, centering safety, trust, and empowerment. We help clients process painful experiences at a pace that feels right for them, while cultivating greater regulation, connection, and a renewed sense of self.

  • Relationships are at the heart of our emotional wellbeing. We support couples and families who are working through communication issues, life transitions, conflict, disconnection, or grief. Our work focuses on fostering deeper understanding, mutual respect, and authentic connection between all members.

  • Adolescence can be a challenging time filled with changes, confusion, and emotional turmoil. At Inspirit Behavioral Health, we understand the unique struggles that teens face. Our adolescent therapy services are designed to provide a safe, supportive space where young people can explore their feelings, develop healthy coping strategies, and build resilience.

  • We offer thoughtful and collaborative supervision for provisionally licensed clinicians in North Carolina. Our approach prioritizes your growth not just as a clinician, but as a person—supporting you in developing confidence, clinical insight, and a grounded sense of your professional identity.
