About Xavier

Xavier Fullerton is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, sleep problems, anger, and parenting challenges. He also supports those dealing with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and issues around self-esteem and coping with life changes.

Xavier keeps sessions straightforward and practical. He emphasizes a respectful, sincere connection and avoids stigmatizing labels. His style is interactive - clients are encouraged to shape sessions and set goals that matter to them.

Background and approach

He draws from several therapy methods to fit each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

He also uses client-centered and mindfulness-based tools along with motivational techniques to support change. With nine years of experience as a therapist and life coach, Xavier brings both clinical training and practical problem-solving to sessions. He has worked with people who have experienced physical or emotional trauma and those coping with obsessive thoughts, attention challenges, and caregiver stress.

Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Prospective clients choose a subscription plan that can be canceled at any time and schedule according to the therapist’s availability. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions through the Start Therapy process.

Therapy approaches and how they fit online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and building a trusting relationship. It helps people feel heard and supported while they decide what changes they want to make. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to shift them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Xavier blends these approaches to match each person’s needs. Finding the right method is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on how the client responds in sessions.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. These formats let people fit sessions into busy schedules, continue work while traveling, or use shorter check-ins between longer sessions. The range of options helps people choose what feels most manageable while they focus on practical steps toward their goals.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
