Trauma Therapy in Charlotte, NC

Specialized Trauma Treatment for the Charlotte Community

Charlotte is a city of transplants, military families, growing communities, and people carrying histories that they haven’t had the right support to process. If you’re living with the effects of trauma, whether from childhood, a single overwhelming event, systemic racism, or years of accumulated stress, Kind Mind Psychology offers evidence-based trauma therapy that can help.

We treat single-incident trauma, complex PTSD, racial trauma, intergenerational trauma, sexual trauma, medical trauma, and attachment disruptions from childhood. Our founder co-authored Addressing Race-Based Stress in Therapy with Black Clients (Routledge), giving Kind Mind a depth of published expertise in racial trauma that most Charlotte-area practices can’t match.

How We Treat Trauma

Our clinicians use EMDR, Prolonged Exposure, Cognitive Processing Therapy, IFS, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and DBT depending on what your trauma needs. We don’t default to one approach for everyone. If your trauma is best served by reprocessing (EMDR), we do that. If it needs skills stabilization first (DBT), we start there. If the body is holding what the mind can’t access (Sensorimotor), we work there.

We serve people of all backgrounds with particular expertise in BIPOC communitiesLGBTQ+ individuals, immigrants, and survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.

All sessions are virtual for Charlotte-area clients and anyone in North Carolina.

Insurance & Fees

We accept Aetna, Cigna, and Blue Cross Blue Shield for North Carolina clients. Sliding scale from $25. Visit our Insurance & Fees page for details.

Do you treat racial trauma in Charlotte?

Yes. Racial trauma is a core clinical focus at Kind Mind.

Charlotte’s BIPOC community deserves therapists who understand the cumulative impact of racism on mental health, and that’s what we provide.

What is complex PTSD and do you treat it?

Complex PTSD results from prolonged or repeated trauma, often in childhood, such as abuse, neglect, or growing up in an unsafe environment. It shares features with standard PTSD but also includes difficulty regulating emotions, problems with self-image, and challenges in relationships. We treat complex PTSD using a combination of EMDR, IFS, DBT, CPT, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy.
