About Holly
Holly Ingram is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 34 years of professional experience. She focuses on common life pressures that often show up at home, including stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, and relationship and family concerns.
Holly emphasizes that the person knows their own story best. She listens for strengths and helps people use those strengths to handle what feels overwhelming. She also works with trauma and abuse, ADHD, grief, sleep problems, and intimacy-related issues.
Her work includes practical skills and clear conversation. She uses approaches such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and EMDR when appropriate. Sessions often involve noticing patterns, practicing new skills, and trying small changes between meetings.
Parents and adults worried about a strained relationship with a partner, parent, child, or sibling will find a focus on everyday household stresses and parenting challenges. Holly also helps people coping with chronic pain, illness, codependency, and communication problems.
People describe starting with an honest check-in about what is most pressing. From there Holly and the person set simple, realistic goals and track progress. She asks about practical obstacles and suggests small steps that fit into daily routines.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Holly uses client-centered work to focus on the person's own goals and perspective. Client-centered work emphasizes listening, reflecting, and building on a person's strengths to address everyday problems and relationship stresses.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. CBT involves identifying unhelpful patterns, trying new behaviors, and practicing skills to reduce anxiety, depression, or sleep and parenting difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication and distress tolerance in tense household situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Holly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean mixing client-centered conversation with CBT or DBT skills and, when appropriate, including EMDR techniques for trauma processing.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people use video or phone sessions depending on what best suits their schedule and comfort.
