Getting to know John Shirey

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist (LCAS), and Certified Clinical Supervisor (CCS) based in Asheville, NC. As an OIF veteran who served in South Korea and Kuwait, I bring a unique understanding of the challenges faced by military service members and their families. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Western Carolina University in 2016. Since then, I have gained extensive experience in community mental health, addiction treatment centers, primary care, and inpatient psychiatric hospitals. My work addresses a range of issues, including addiction, grief, trauma, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, and veterans' concerns. My diverse background and deep passion for helping others enable me to provide compassionate, client-centered care tailored to each individual’s needs and goals.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
