About Beverly
Beverly Hicks is a licensed clinician with thirty years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting concerns. She practices in North Carolina and brings a steady, compassionate presence to therapy sessions. Beverly holds the Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential and is also a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.
Her style is warm and collaborative. She listens first, then helps people identify small, practical steps they can use right away.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on coping skills, clearer communication, and rebuilding confidence after loss or trauma. Beverly uses familiar, evidence-based methods when they fit the situation. She may draw on client-centered listening to understand your priorities, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and solution-focused steps for immediate challenges.
She also integrates trauma-focused approaches when past events are getting in the way of daily life. Many people come for help with relationship strain, addiction, grief, or parenting pressures. Beverly also supports those facing career stress, ADHD-related challenges, and compassion fatigue from caregiving roles.
She takes time to match the approach to each person’s goals. Her intake process is straightforward. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire, then schedule sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Beverly frames therapy as a team effort and helps clients build routines that fit real life.

Approaches that guide online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding your priorities and building trust through empathetic listening. It helps people clarify what matters most and set goals that reflect their values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers practical techniques to reduce anxiety, change unhelpful patterns, and handle parenting or work stresses more effectively.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and shift how they connect with others and themselves. It can be useful when emotional patterns are affecting relationships, intimacy, or communication in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Beverly will talk with you about your goals and try different strategies together so you can see what helps. She treats decision-making as a collaborative process that adapts as needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and varying needs. Video calls let you have face-to-face conversations when a fuller interaction feels useful. Phone sessions are a good option if bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into workdays, caregiving routines, or times when traveling is difficult.
