Your clinicians

The two people you might sit with

Each of us is licensed in North Carolina. Read both, and tell us whom you would like to start with.

  • Lemuel Mayfield, a therapist with a gray-flecked beard, standing in a warmly lit consulting room in a dark cardigan.

    Lemuel Mayfield

    Couples and relationship therapist

    • Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) · NC Lic. 000000

    Lemuel works with couples and with groups of three or more. He asks each person early on what they would most like the others to understand, and he keeps the pace slow enough for everyone to answer.

  • Amira Barakat, a therapist with dark curly hair, seated in an armchair in a consulting room with bookshelves.

    Amira Barakat

    Couples and transitions therapist

    • Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) · NC Lic. 000000

    Amira sees couples, and partners of people who are coming out or changing. She is plain about what she sees, kind about how she says it, and clear about where her work ends.

What either of us will do

Three things you can count on

  • Say what we are doing

    We name the approach we are using and why, and we change course if it isn't helping.

  • Keep the pace yours

    You set how fast we go. We never promise a number of sessions.

  • Say when we aren't the fit

    If someone else would serve you better, we will say so and help you find them.
