About Cecelia

Cecelia Myers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with two decades of clinical experience. She trained in psychology and counseling at UNC Charlotte and practices in North Carolina. Her work often focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, and mood-related issues.

Cecelia aims to meet people where they are and build a plan that fits each situation. Cecelia draws on a mix of evidence-informed methods to guide therapy.

Background and approach

She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients live by their values, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Client-Centered therapy shapes how she listens, keeping sessions focused on each person's perspective. Parents find practical, down-to-earth support for managing parenting challenges.

She offers coaching around parenting techniques and helps parents plan how to support kids through big life changes. She also works with concerns tied to adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, attachment, and separation issues. Her background includes training in play-based and animal-assisted approaches, which inform her understanding of development and early life experiences.

That perspective can help when family history or childhood patterns come up in therapy. Cecelia also brings experience with grief, trauma, compassion fatigue, and first responder issues. Sessions emphasize clear goals and steady steps forward.

Cecelia aims to be practical and caring, helping clients build coping skills, improve communication, and manage transitions. She works in English and holds the following licenses SC LPC 10044 and GA LPC LPC006223.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values. It can reduce avoidance and increase willingness to face hard feelings while building a more meaningful routine. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going, which is useful for anxiety, mood issues, and many everyday struggles. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes listening and empathy so clients feel heard and can shape the pace and goals of work.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will try methods that fit the situation and adjust as needed rather than sticking to a single plan from the start.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules and to check in between meetings when needed. For many people, remote sessions allow consistent progress without long travel, while still using the same therapeutic tools and homework exercises a therapist would assign in person.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
