As the owner of Wolf & Willow Counseling, I provide trauma-informed, identity-affirming care that moves therapy beyond the office and into nature through animal-assisted support and therapeutic horticulture. I am dedicated to helping individuals and families find healing by reconnecting with themselves and the earth in a space where they feel truly seen and grounded.

A bright, welcoming smile from Sydney. She stands out from the brick background with her cheerful curly hair, looped dual ear piercing, and a shirt that evokes the image of springtime. They seem excited to meet the viewer.

As a dual-licensed counselor (LCMHCA & LCASA), I offer a collaborative, trauma-informed space where we utilize evidence-based tools like DBT and CBT to build on your unique strengths. My goal is to walk alongside you through life's transitions, providing non-judgmental support to foster meaningful and sustainable change.

A calming yet warm welcome from Mariah. She is smiling at the viewer from a tranquil forest, and has a green linen button-up that strikes a nice balance between professional and relaxed. Their posture is confident and calm.

Chapel Hill‍ | In Person and Telehealth

As a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with extensive experience in community and school-based mental health, I work collaboratively and compassionately with children, teens and adults to help identify strengths, grow self-compassion and deepen self-awareness in the face of anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I am passionate about creating a trauma-informed, grounding, and identity-affirming space so that you no longer bear the full weight of your experiences alone. While utilizing a blend of evidenced-based modalities such as DBT, TF-CBT and ACT, I endeavor to be authentic and curious about your experience and to support you in fostering changes that are most meaningful to you. 

Cameron smiles reassuringly from a tranquil forest. His professional headshot playfully incorporates his piercings and swept back hair, while still staying grounded with his tasteful storm-grey color scheme
