Justin Cantalini, LCMHC

Psychotherapist
NC
Being overwhelmed and stuck can make life feel impossible. You are far from alone. The majority of people struggle; we just don't get many opportunities to genuinely talk about our issues. My goal as a therapist is to help you feel understood, connected, and equipped to face challenges with a sense of confidence and curiosity. My approach I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Trust-based Relational Intervention, and experiential/humanistic approaches to help my clients develop greater self-awareness, build resilience, and respond more effectively to situations and difficult thoughts and feelings. My focus I am passionate about helping others with anxiety, communication, trauma resolution/post-traumatic growth, stress resilience, and relationship challenges. I focus on getting a clear picture of who you are as a whole person (your strengths, challenges, and needs) and then help you widen your repertoire of coping tools. My communication style I want you to feel seen and understood. I use active listening and direct and open feedback to help you reflect on your experience with new and creative perspectives. You can expect me to be affirming, collaborative, curious, and to use humor at appropriate times. My journey to mental healthcare I entered the mental health field in 2006 as a direct care staff member for youth in residential programs. Being able to work with others during these sensitive times in their lives, I realized how deeply human connection is at the root of our most basic needs. I became a licensed therapist in 2014 in order to continue on this important journey. My goals for you I help clients learn to lean into values-guided action. Clarifying values not only highlights your unique strengths and needs, it also sets the stage for creating clear and manageable goals. My first session with you Starting therapy can be intimidating. It takes courage to ask for help and I am grateful that you are here. Our first sessions will be low pressure.
