About Beverly

Beverly Hicks is a licensed counselor and marriage and family therapist with thirty years of experience in North Carolina. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, life changes, grief, addictions, and depression. Beverly offers a compassionate, faith-informed perspective for those who want therapy that respects their values.

She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at feelings that drive patterns in relationships and personal choices. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to build a trusting, respectful space where people feel heard.

Background and approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used when practical changes in thinking and behavior can ease symptoms. Beverly works with concerns ranging from trauma and abuse to parenting strain, caregiver stress, and mood disorders such as bipolar and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, aging and geriatric concerns, and cancer-related distress.

Sessions focus on clear goals and gradual steps to feel steadier day to day. The therapy process is collaborative. Beverly helps clients identify patterns, try new responses, and practice skills between visits.

She frames progress as small, consistent changes rather than instant fixes. Her dual credentials are LCMHC, which is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, and LMFT, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Beverly provides care in English for adults in North Carolina and brings three decades of clinical experience to each session.

Online support

How Beverly’s approaches translate to online therapy

Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and working with core emotions that shape how people relate to themselves and others. Online sessions can help clients notice patterns, name feelings, and try new emotional responses in real time. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and acceptance, giving people space to tell their story while the therapist reflects and guides; this approach works well over video or phone when building rapport matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and uses specific exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which can be assigned and reviewed between online sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Beverly works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She combines emotional insight with practical steps so clients can test small changes and adjust the plan as needed.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for visual connection and deeper conversation. Phone sessions are an option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief exchanges, ongoing support, or homework check-ins between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work consistently regardless of location.
