About

Jeff (Jeffery) Thompson, LCMHC, is a licensed professional counselor practicing in North Carolina with 20 years of clinical experience. He works with people who are facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self esteem struggles, addictions, LGBT concerns, family matters, grief, eating and parenting challenges, anger, depression, coping with life changes, and ADHD. Additional focus areas include forgiveness, guilt and shame, post-traumatic stress, and sex addiction.

His clinical approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and hypnotherapy. He combines these methods to address presenting concerns and will incorporate EMDR or hypnotherapy when they appear appropriate for the work.

Jeff believes therapy is a process of uncovering strengths rather than centering on pathology. He attends to the whole person and tailors the therapeutic path to the individual’s needs and goals. Those ready to begin a collaborative process will find a clinician who emphasizes practical strategies alongside deeper exploratory work.

Remote care with evidence-informed approaches



Jeff offers remote sessions delivered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences. These formats are used to provide ongoing therapeutic work without requiring in-person visits.

He frequently uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in remote work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clarify personal values and build committed action in the presence of difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior and developing practical skills to address them. For trauma-related concerns, Jeff may incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to support processing of distressing memories, and he may use hypnotherapy techniques when appropriate to access focused relaxation and internal resources.

People seeking a collaborative clinician who can blend structured skill teaching with experiential and trauma-focused methods may find a good match. All of the listed communication options are available for remote appointments, allowing the format to be chosen to suit individual needs.
