Why Mountains to Sea

Whole-person therapy rooted in North Carolina soil and salt water.

Clients describe sessions as steady, practical, and deeply compassionate. Whether we are working with a child’s sensory system or an adult’s nervous system, we blend clinical expertise with real-life humanity.

Body-aware & relational

Sessions honor what shows up in your muscles, breath, and posture just as much as your thoughts. We go slow and check for consent so your body can trust the process.

Family-systems informed

Parenting dynamics, intergenerational stories, and attachment patterns matter. We zoom out to consider your relationships, identities, and support networks.

Flexible & collaborative

Every session includes space for feedback. We’ll pivot between processing, skills practice, and gentle coaching depending on what would feel most useful that day.

Support across seasons

Therapy can help when...

For kids & teens

  • Emotions feel “too big” for their body
  • They’re masking at school and melting at home
  • Transitions like adoption, divorce, or a move need space
  • They’ve been through scary or confusing experiences

For adults

  • Anxiety or burnout keeps hijacking your days
  • You’re carrying complex trauma, grief, or religious harm
  • Your relationships feel tense, distant, or stuck
  • You want therapy that values both intuition and evidence

For parents & caregivers

  • You’re craving regulation strategies you can actually use
  • Behavior plans haven’t accounted for nervous systems
  • Co-parenting, foster care, or kinship care is overwhelming
  • You need a therapist who respects your expertise on your kid
