What People Come In For
You don't have to be in crisis to start therapy. Most people come because something has been quietly wearing them down for a while.
Anxiety and Panic
Racing thoughts, panic attacks, social dread, and the constant background hum of worry that makes rest feel impossible.
Depression and Grief
Flatness, exhaustion, pulling away from people you love, and the long tail of a loss that others expect you to be over.
Trauma and Past Abuse
Things that happened years ago still shaping how you sleep, trust, and react. Worked through at a pace you set.
Food and Body Image
Restriction, bingeing, and shame around eating, approached without judgement and with attention to the whole picture.
Life Transitions
Divorce, a move, a new job, retirement, a first baby. Change that looks fine on paper and feels like freefall.
Self-Worth and Boundaries
Perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the sense that you keep running the same relationship pattern on repeat.

Katrina McGuire

What Clients Say
Shared with written permission. Names changed to protect confidentiality.
"I had put off calling for two years. The consultation took fifteen minutes and I had an appointment that same Thursday."
"Nobody rushed me. Six months on I sleep through the night, which I honestly did not think was still possible for me."
"Telehealth meant I could do sessions on my lunch break instead of burning half a day of leave every week."
Finding the Winston-Salem Office
We're at Westbrook Plaza, a short drive from downtown Winston-Salem and easy to reach from Clemmons, Kernersville and High Point. Free parking at the door. If getting here is the obstacle, telehealth covers all of North Carolina.
Questions People Ask Before Booking
How soon can I actually be seen?+
Our Winston-Salem office opened in June 2026, so both therapists still have open slots. Most new clients have a first appointment within seven days of the consultation call, including afternoon and evening times.
What will I pay if I use insurance?+
Usually just your plan's copay for outpatient mental health. We verify your exact benefit on the consultation call and tell you the number before you book, so there is no surprise bill.
Can I do sessions from home?+
Yes, anywhere in North Carolina. You need a private space, a phone or laptop, and a decent connection. The platform is HIPAA-compliant and nothing is recorded.
How long are sessions and how often will I come?+
Sessions run 50 minutes, with a 60-minute first appointment. Most people start weekly and move to fortnightly as things improve. You and your therapist decide that together.
Will my employer or family find out?+
No. Your records are protected under HIPAA and North Carolina law. Your employer has no access. If you bill insurance, the insurer receives a diagnosis code for payment, but never what you discussed. The narrow legal exceptions, such as immediate risk to life, are explained in your first session.
What if the therapist isn't right for me?+
Say so and we'll rematch you within the practice at no cost, or help you find someone outside it. Fit matters more than loyalty to us.
