Online therapy for North Carolina residents
Origins started in North Carolina, and online sessions are how many clients reach us, from Charlotte, Raleigh and Asheville to Wilmington, Greensboro and the small towns in between. Whether the nearest office is an hour away or you simply prefer your own couch, you can meet with a North Carolina–licensed clinician by secure video.
Origins Counseling & Wellness offers secure video therapy with clinicians who are licensed to practice in North Carolina. Our care is trauma-informed and affirming of LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent clients and of people whose lives do not fit a template.

Clinicians licensed in North Carolina
Therapists can only provide therapy to people who are physically located in a state where they hold a license. Every clinician listed on this page is licensed in North Carolina, so you need to be in North Carolina during your session. If you are traveling or planning a move, tell your therapist early so you can plan for continuity of care.
Prefer to meet in person? We have offices in Cary, Durham (Chapel Hill Road), Durham (Southpark), Elkin and Greenville. Many of our clinicians offer both, and you can filter the therapist directory by location.
Cost, insurance and payment in North Carolina
Several of our clinicians participate with plans including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, CHAMPVA, Cigna, the NC State Health Plan and UnitedHealthcare, and many plans cover telehealth the same way as in-person visits. Participation varies by clinician and plan, so check the clinician’s profile and confirm your benefits with your insurer before your first session. See clinicians who accept insurance, out-of-network billing, self-pay options and sliding-scale fees. Our guide to using insurance for counseling explains the basics.
