Looking for Counseling?

You found it! I’m Dr. Holly Cox (she/her), PhD, CHT, LMFT, a licensed therapist in North Carolina and Florida. I specialize in online counseling for creatives feeling stuck, healthcare providers, relationship struggles, and chronic illness.

You know what sucks?

Feeling like your life is not your own because anxiety, dread and overwhelm are driving the car and here you are, just a passenger in the back seat.

Maybe you get to pick the road snacks sometimes, or like, one song. But all in all, the destinations aren’t dreamy. And you don’t get a say.

Does this sound like a pretty good description of where you’re at right now? If it does, counseling can help. Like really, it does help.

My therapy practice focuses on helping driven people reclaim a sense of direction and personal agency in their lives, careers, and relationships.

I think you should get to chart your own course, pick your own soundtrack, and partner with some really great copilots here and there.

It’s important to me that you feel welcome, safe, and understood during our work together. I offer inclusive, person-centered counseling that draws on an eclectic array of evidence-based practices to help clients strategize around:

  • Anxiety

  • Relationship challenges including family of origin struggles

  • Professional burnout

  • Reigniting Creativity

  • Chronic pain and illness

We’ll also cultivate somatic techniques that complement the cognitive behavioral parts of our work together.

My eclectic, evidence-based approach will help you not just make decisions from the mind, but from the heart and soul as well. You can’t answer the call for reinvention if you don’t recruit knowing from your whole self.

A lot of choosing to change is purposely seeing and then breaking through the mental and emotional clutter that holds us back from living interesting, fulfilling lives.

One of my teachers, Davidji,says that what we are all looking for is not certainty, it’s clarity. Clarity comes when we can see old patterns of trauma and stuckness through the prism of healthy self-regard.

We’re all working from rough draft to rough draft as we write our lives. But you can get clearer and clearer about where the story is going. You can reauthor a new narrative in which you are resilient.

I believe in your resilience, and I’m here to help you discover and design your own unique story.
