Meet the Therapists at Born to Bend Mental Health and Wellness

Finding the right therapist is one of the most important decisions you can make for your mental health — and we don’t take that lightly. The therapists at Born to Bend Mental Health and Wellness are not just clinicians; they are compassionate human beings who chose this work because they genuinely care about the people they serve.

Our team is made up of licensed therapists, counselors, and mental health professionals serving Asheville and Hendersonville, NC — and beyond, through telehealth available across all of North Carolina. Every clinician on our team brings their own unique background, training, and lived experience to the work, but we are all united by the same commitment: to show up fully for every client, every session.

Trauma-Informed Care Across Every Specialty

All of our therapists practice through a trauma-informed lens. That means we understand that what looks like anxiety, depression, anger, or relationship conflict often has deeper roots — and we create a space that is safe enough to explore them. Whether you are coming to us for individual therapy, couples counseling, family therapy, or EMDR, you will be met with warmth, patience, and zero judgment.

Our therapists are trained in a range of evidence-based modalities including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), solution-focused therapy, and attachment-based approaches. We work with adults, teens, couples, and families across a wide range of concerns including trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, addiction, and relationship challenges.
