Cecelia Myers , LPC

Cecelia Myers holds an undergraduate degree in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. She brings more than 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults, combining developmental knowledge with clinical practice to support clients across the lifespan.

She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and has additional training as a Registered Play Therapist, which informs her understanding of early life experiences and developmental needs. Her background also includes training in animal-assisted and equine-assisted therapy, reflecting a belief that interactions with animals and time in nature can support healing.

In practice she emphasizes meeting clients where they are, crafting individualized plans that draw on Adlerian concepts alongside evidence-based techniques. Parenting support is a particular focus - she offers coaching and therapy to help families strengthen relationships and navigate challenges that arise during adoption, foster care, blended family transitions, divorce, and separation.

She also works with adults on anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, depression, grief, anger, and compassion fatigue, offering practical strategies and emotional support. Trained in divorce mediation and parenting coordination, she supports families through difficult life changes and helps children adjust to new circumstances. Her approach is caring and collaborative, centering each person’s goals and needs throughout the therapeutic process.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and commit to actions that align with those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. ACT can be useful for managing anxiety, depression, and life transitions by building psychological flexibility.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist offers empathy, understanding, and unconditional positive regard. This approach helps clients explore their feelings, increase self-awareness, and strengthen self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies and reshapes unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors through practical skills and structured exercises. CBT is often applied to anxiety, mood disorders, obsessive thoughts, and coping with stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Cecelia works with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting techniques as therapy progresses so the work remains relevant and effective.

Online sessions offer flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, support ongoing communication between sessions, and provide access to licensed professionals from different locations while maintaining the same therapeutic focus as in-person work.
