Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. As a friendly and compassionate therapist, I work with individuals ages 10 to 65, offering support through a person-centered approach and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Whether you're a child, teen, young adult, or adult, my goal is to create a safe space where you can explore challenges, build healthy coping skills, and improve communication in your daily life. I also offer school counseling resources, including guidance on navigating 504 plans, to help students and families feel more confident and supported. Wherever you are on your journey, I’m here to walk alongside you.

We are a group practice located in downtown Asheville with several therapists on staff. Our licensed therapists have extensive training and experience in issues affecting adults and students. We specialize in treating a range of conditions including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, attachment, addiction, grief, women/men's issues, ADHD, trauma, post traumatic stress disorder, OCD, and much more. Reach out and we will match you with the right therapist in our group!

I believe in the quiet brilliance that lives within everyone. A light that may flicker beneath exhaustion, doubt, or the weight of being everything to everyone, but never entirely goes out. You are the steady one, the go-to, the fixer of things. Yet in still moments, the whisper comes: 
"What if they find out I’m barely holding on?" Here, you are invited to lay it all down. 
To exhale. 
To listen inward. My mission is to help you return to your own knowing: the fierce, intuitive, radiant self that may have been buried beneath roles, expectations, and the noise of the world. Through thoughtful, compassionate therapy, I will help guide you, not toward becoming someone else, but toward remembering who you’ve always been.

You might be here because something has gone wrong. Your days might have been ruled by anxiety, old wounds that won't heal, or the quiet weight of wondering if you're enough. Maybe you're carrying the aftermath of a toxic relationship, spiritual trauma, or simply the exhaustion of doing everything alone. At Restore Hope Counseling, I provide individual therapy and group therapy to adults across Charlotte, Matthews, Mint Hill, Indian Trail, and surrounding areas. I specialize in helping survivors of narcissistic abuse and emotional trauma, men navigating identity and relationships, and leaders including pastors and ministry families who are ready to become the healthiest version of themselves. This isn't surface-level support. It's real, focused counseling centered on what actually helps you move forward.

I strive to create a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients can freely express themselves, fostering a sense of trust and collaboration. I offer a safe and nurturing space for children, teens and adults to explore their unique identities and build skills to help with emotional regulation, behavioral issues, self-esteem, communication, problem solving, and resilience. My approach is client-centered, unique to each client's needs. Some of the modalities that I incorporate include play therapy, EMDR, ERP, strengths-based, and psychoeducation. Whether you or your child is seeking guidance through a challenging life transition, relief from emotional distress, or a safe space to process trauma, I committed to walking alongside you on your journey towards healing and empowerment.

Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, anxious, or simply “not like themselves.” They’re often balancing work, family, school, or major life transitions while trying to keep everything together. You may be experiencing mood changes, sleep concerns, or mental exhaustion, and you’re ready to feel more balanced, confident, and in control again. I provide compassionate, culturally responsive care to help you gain clarity, stability, and peace. I’m currently accepting new clients and would be honored to support you on your healing journey.

I predominantly work with members of the LGBTQ+ community. Transgender/Gender Specialist (Certified Member of World Professional Association for Transgender Health). Letters provided for transition needs. I provide affirmation and exploration to facilitate authenticity while taking into account your values and goals within the framework of your life. I work with family members to facilitate peace and workability in line with this authenticity. Clinical mental health difficulties such as depression, anxiety, mood dysregulation, attention deficit, etc. are also addressed.

Do you find yourself obsessing about weight, body image, food, calories, or working out? Do you engage in restrictive behaviors that only lead to bingeing and purging? Do you ever get intrusive thoughts or images that are distressing and you just can't seem to get rid of them? You may even have thoughts of harming someone and have to check to make sure you didn't. You don't actually want to harm them, but the thoughts keep coming. You might even worry that if you don't do something the right way, then it could result in one of your loved ones dying or 'something bad' happening. These are just some of the comments that people with Eating Disorders and OCD might struggle with. It can be very distressing and overwhelming. I work with clients on learning how to manage their emotions and sit with discomfort. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients get their lives back and actually enjoy their college career. I do provide free 15 minute consultations, so if you think we might be a good fit, please reach out!

Hi! Thank you for visiting my profile. I am married with a 6 year old boy and a 2 year old lab/pit bull mix. I have been in this field for over 15 years and enjoy helping others to reach their maximum potential.

I help college students and young adults who struggle with anxiety, life transitions, and relationship issues. Reach out for a free 15 minute phone consultation! My clients struggle like you do. Adjusting to college life is hard, making new friends, new relationships, new freedoms away from family, or finally discovering who you truly are doesn't come without growing pains. Often, I hear that my clients initially didn't think they needed therapy because they're getting through life just fine. On the outside your friends, family, or professors say you look fine, but inside you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and burned out. You don't have to feel this way. You deserve to feel happy, self assured, confident, and proud of the path you're on. I'd love to help you on your journey to being your most confident self! Your problems aren't too big or small for therapy. I can help! Reach out today, and let's get started.

Hi, I'm Dr. J'haria Dallas, and I'm so glad you're here. College can be an exciting and transformative time, but it can also feel overwhelming. Whether you're navigating academic stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, family expectations, career uncertainty, burnout, or major life transitions, you don't have to face it alone. Seeking support is a courageous step, and by being here, you're already investing in yourself and your well-being. My approach to counseling is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to help students better understand the thoughts, emotions, and patterns that may be holding them back while also identifying the strengths and resources they already possess. Together, we'll explore what's beneath the surface, develop practical coping strategies, and create meaningful goals that align with the life you want to build. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision from the University of Georgia. Throughout my work as a counselor, educator, and supervisor, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals through some of life's most challenging and uncertain moments. These experiences have reinforced my belief in the power of having a supportive space where you can be authentic, reflect, and grow. I work with college students and young adults who are seeking greater confidence, balance, self-understanding, and connection. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, valued, and empowered to navigate challenges while building the skills needed to thrive both personally and academically. More than anything, I believe in your ability to grow through adversity, discover your strengths, and create meaningful change. You don't have to have everything figured out to begin. Wherever you are in your journey, I'd be honored to walk alongside you. ​

You can't quite put your finger on the problem, but you know that life just feels like a drag right now. You don't have to keep struggling. No matter what's going on, you can make positive changes that improve your life. You deserve to feel joyful, confident, & free. I want to help you get there.
