Our mission at FullScope Counseling Services, PLLC is to create a safe, compassionate, authentic and caring environment where we guide in helping our clients to make empowered decisions about their individual and professional lives. We assist individuals in recognizing the strengths they already have and find creative ways to utilize these gifts in overcoming current issues that prevent them from feeling fully empowered. At FullScope, we know that an individual is always growing personally and healing is always happening. Sometimes each of us needs support and guidance in our journey. Our approach to counseling is an integrative approach based on years of experience and training. We treat each client as the unique individual he or she is. Our first priority is to listen and understand designing the counseling process around our client. From the beginning of the counseling process, there is much emphasis on forming a strong relationship. We believe the foundation of the success of counseling is based on the creation of a relationship in which clients can feel comfortable, can be understood, and can trust. FREE 15 MINUTE PHONE CONSULTATION! The phone consultation is not therapy; however, this is an opportunity for you to speak with an experienced therapist to determine if receiving therapy or life coaching is a good fit for you or your family member.

Hello and welcome! Typically, I see client's ranging from ages 5-30. I enjoy helping clients work on anxiety, depression, self-esteem, family dynamics, life transitions, suicidal ideation and self-harm. I believe in walking alongside clients while providing a supportive and nonjudgmental space. I often use mindfulness techniques, solution focused therapy and trauma-informed care in treatment. I am passionate about social justice and love to incorporate nature and art into practice. Through a person-centered approach, I reinforce the belief that individuals are experts of their own life by utilizing their natural supports and strengths.

Hi, my name is Richard Howard and I am one of the licensed counselors here at Wright's Care Counseling Services. As the one setting up this account, I feel that it's necessary to include the practice as a whole rather than simply myself in case you as a patient have specific preferences as to who you would like to work with. Feel free to check it out and learn more about our practice. We provide in-office and telehealth (phone or zoom) counseling sessions and have offices in Greensboro, Asheboro, and Winston-Salem. We take private insurances as well as Medicaid.

My practice model is all about helping clients explore themselves and their place in the world. As a licensed psychologist with experience working in a variety of care settings, I have expertise in treating depression, anxiety, lifestyle stress, trauma, addiction, and spiritual/existential distress. My therapy takes a nonjudgmental, compassion oriented focus. Through guiding my clients to approach themselves in more open and honest ways, I help them uncover their core needs so that they may lead lives that feel vibrant and fulfilling. I view health as a balance between mind, body, spirit, and environment. As such, my therapy style is holistic. I regularly guide my clients in mindfulness-based practices and offer an approach that blends Internal Family Systems therapy with somatic work and cognitive-behavioral exploration. In a culture where consciousness altering drug use is on the rise, I also work with clients to gain optimal wellness following challenging, disorienting, or invigorating psychedelic experiences. My passion for the Enneagram heavily informs my therapeutic lens, and I happily teach this tool to clients interested in evolving their understanding of self. I work to bolster my clients’ strengths while developing new skills and fresh insights. With sensitivity to the health impact of both personal and cultural forces, I strive to create a safe, welcoming space for my clients to explore all facets of their identities.

My name is Laura Fisher-Caudill (she/her), and as a trauma therapist and human, I am excited to get to know you. As a highly sensitive, empathetic person with big emotions, I love helping other empathetic humans heal from past trauma. As someone who’s experienced mental health struggles and complex trauma throughout my life experience, it’s been incredibly rewarding to provide a space where people can create meaningful connections between their past experiences and current realities and work towards healing from past trauma to find their own inner control, wisdom, and growth in the process. I am deeply committed to helping clients I work with find their inner strength, resilience, and the tools they need to heal from the past and create a life filled with purpose, joy, and fulfillment. My goal is to empower others in learning effective tools for navigating emotional distress and unburdening the pain of past trauma to create their lives worth living! My clients often describe themselves and their experiences as: Cycle breakers in their family systems. They often have lived experience as the “golden child” or “scapegoat” in their family of origin and may struggle with boundary setting or understanding the impact of childhood dynamics on their relationships and trauma responses in the present. Adult children of parents who were/are emotionally immature and/or have narcissistic behavior patterns. Complex traumatic experiences throughout their lifetimes, such as emotional invalidation or emotional trauma/neglect, criticism, and/or judgment by caregivers, being parentified early in life or expected (either overtly or covertly) to caretake emotional needs of their parents and not have needs of their own, being placed in the role of peacekeeper in their family system, and may have experienced sexual, physical, or other forms of abuse as well. Living with a chronically dysregulated nervous system due to experiences of complex traumatic events throughout their lives, often beginning at a very young age. Somatic, or body based, symptoms of complex trauma, such as chronic pain, illness, stored emotions in hips, shoulders and other areas of the physical body. Neurodivergent, specifically being highly sensitive to sensory experiences, emotionally intense, empathetic humans who identify as being gifted and/or having ADHD. Members of the LGBTQIA+ community. Parents, partners, or loved ones of members of the LGBTQIA+ community.

My name is Megan Draughn Anguiano, and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor practicing at ModernMind Counseling & Wellness in Charlotte, NC. I believe each individual has their own unique needs, and I strive to meet you where you are at. I specialize in working with young adults who are struggling with anxious and depressed feelings as they go through new transitions in life. I work with those who are struggling with anxiety, low confidence and self-esteem, LGBT+ topics, and relationship issues that can make parts of life feel even more overwhelming. I utilize an eclectic style of evidence-based approaches that focus on your internal strengths. As we get started, I will work with you to come up with an individualized treatment plan that addresses your symptoms and concerns. It's important to feel safe in counseling; therefore, I aim to create an open, nonjudgmental space. Send me a message when you are ready to get started, and we can discuss if I am the right fit and schedule your first appointment! I look forward to getting to know you and supporting you in your journey towards growth.

I work with individuals dealing with life transitions, medical related issues, mood and affective disorders, and marriage, parenting or family issues. I also have my Yoga Teacher Training Certification as well as completing my certifications in Maternal Mental Health and ADHD. My approach to counseling places an emphasis on the relationship between the client and counselor and the promotion of growth. When needed, I use a variety of structured and non-structured interventions to best meet the needs of the client. I utilize empirically supported techniques, including cognitive and behavioral interventions, that focus on the ways in which individuals think about and respond to events. These interventions allow clients to restructure their thinking, process events and modify behaviors in more adaptive ways. I use a narrative and solution focused approach to collaboratively work with clients to identify successful past solutions to problems and how these strengths can be implemented in future situations. Small changes in the way clients view themselves and their own abilities to solve problems will encourage solution-oriented patterns to reach future goals.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed, unworthy, misunderstood? Do you find yourself questioning what’s next? Perhaps it feels like something is off course or missing from your life. We all go through periods of uncertainty and doubt, and sometimes we need help finding our way through. I offer a safe place to work through mental health and life issues. While I'm an expert on mental health I view you as the expert on you. We will combine our expertise to meet your goals. I'm a mental health counselor who guilds clients towards productive thinking, effective emotion regulation, and assertive communication. This will entail more than talking. Life is about action and so is therapy! I treat the whole person, using an eclectic approach rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I believe all dimensions of our health interconnect to form a complete picture. Whatever we do to our body affects our mind and our spirit. A similar relationship exists between our thoughts, emotions, and actions. A meaningful change in one of these areas will affect the others. This reciprocal relationship between our thoughts, emotions and actions is known as the cognitive triad. Example: Imagine you’re anxious about speaking in front of the class tomorrow. o You’re probably telling yourself all the reasons you can’t do it. That negative self-talk leads to anxiety and feelings of worthlessness. o As a result, you are actually more likely to perform poorly. o What if you talked to yourself differently? o Try encouraging yourself...listing all the reasons you can do it! o Your anxiety will likely decrease. Instead of feeling worthless, you’ll probably feel prepared and ready to present! o If you enter the classroom with the mindset that you can do it, then you’re actually more likely to succeed! I've been a counselor for over 8 years. Why did I become a counselor? Simple. I want to help people heal. I remember that feeling of helplessness as I watched people suffer throughout my childhood. I knew that when I grew up, I needed to do something to help. Accepting the call to become a counselor is the best decision I’ve ever made! As a counselor I am able to help others walk through life's challenges without feeling overcome by them. I began counseling clients of all ages in 2016. I transitioned to remote/telehealth counseling in 2020, and this year I launched my private practice. I currently counsel teens (ages 13-17), adults (18-100) and couples.

First, I want to commend you on taking the step towards creating a more meaningful relationship with yourself through therapy. Understanding ourselves more deeply can feel scary but developing the awareness and skills on how to move forward with any of life’s challenges can feel empowering. I pride myself on creating a safe and inviting space to help you make the best decisions for you. I also understand that no two people are the same and as such, I tailor my skills to meet your specific needs. I am passionate in working with those who are struggling with women’s issues, anxiety, life transitions, overcoming difficult past experiences and trauma, borderline personality disorder, self-esteem issues, codependency, relationship issues, and mood disorders such as bi-polar and depression. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I take a more holistic approach to healing by helping to connect the mind, body and spirit. As a warm, compassionate, and caring clinician, I utilize the empowerment approach to help you identify your strengths and utilize them to help you thrive. We will work together to adjust your thoughts and behaviors to help you live a healthier and more fulfilling life. In my free time I enjoy having fun and engaging in self-care! I enjoy shopping, trying new restaurants, traveling, spending quality time with my family and friends and giving back to my community with my sorority sisters. Please feel free to inquire about how I can help you begin your healing journey!
