Hello,

My name is Dr. Telina Mathews, and I have 17 years of counseling experience and is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor-Supervisor & a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist-Associate in North Carolina. I have experience in the areas of depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, addiction, family conflict, self-image, and life changes to name a few. The foundation of my therapeutic process revolves around a combination of therapies including person centered, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution focused therapy. I enjoy counseling and getting to know individuals as they take on the journey to make changes in their lives. My approach to counseling consists of relationship building, mutual respect, and self-empowerment.

I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
