About Beverly
Beverly Hicks is a licensed clinician with 30 years of practice in North Carolina who helps people manage a wide range of life challenges.
Background and approach
She works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar conditions, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating concerns, anger, self-esteem, career difficulties, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Her scope also includes adoption and foster care matters, aging and geriatric issues, attachment and personality concerns, caregiver stress, cancer-related issues, and multiple other complex presentations.
Her style emphasizes collaboration and practical problem solving while attending to emotional experience. Beverly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered and emotionally focused methods to help clients identify unhelpful patterns, develop coping skills, and restore more satisfying ways of relating.
She also uses EMDR and solution-focused techniques when they fit a person's needs. Beverly integrates these approaches with an intent to tailor interventions to each client's goals and circumstances.
Clients in North Carolina seeking a seasoned therapist will find a practitioner who combines decades of experience with a flexible toolbox of evidence-informed approaches. Beverly holds credentials as an LCMHC and an LMFT and offers sessions in English for those who wish to pursue therapy with an experienced licensed professional.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Clients can expect methods that balance practical skill-building with attention to feelings and relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and introducing concrete strategies to reduce symptoms such as anxiety and depression. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes empathy, validation, and the client's own goals to create a supportive environment for change. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional experience and attachment patterns to improve relationship-related difficulties and deepen emotional understanding.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Beverly will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then adapt techniques from these approaches to fit the situation. That collaborative tailoring helps ensure the work aligns with what the client wants to accomplish.
Online sessions make this blend of approaches more accessible through flexible formats. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and relational work, phone sessions offer convenience when video isn’t possible, and live chat or text-based messaging can provide ongoing support between synchronous appointments. These options support continuity of care and allow therapy to fit into varied schedules and life demands.
