Soraya Cartwright, LPCC

Embarking on a path toward mental and emotional well-being is a deeply personal journey, and I am honored to be your guide throughout this process. As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC), I am dedicated to helping individuals and couples unlock their full potential and overcome life's challenges. With a profound passion for understanding the human experience, I have dedicated my career to creating a safe and nurturing environment where individuals can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to gain a deeper understanding of themselves, achieve personal growth, and find lasting happiness.

With a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health, I specialize in working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, including adults and couples. My professional journey is characterized by continuous learning and development, as I firmly believe in adapting my approaches to meet the evolving needs of my clients. In addition, I am certified in the Prepare & Enrich program, which is instrumental in assessing and enhancing premarital and marital relationships, as well as brain-spotting. My approach to therapy is highly individualized, ensuring that each person's unique needs are met with empathy and insight.

Before professional counseling, I accumulated extensive experience in various professional settings. As the founder and CEO of a memory preservation business, I combined my entrepreneurial spirit with my leadership skills to create a successful company dedicated to preserving cherished memories. This entrepreneurial journey, combined with my role as Executive Vice President at a major corporation, where I managed large
teams and developed key organizational strategies, has refined my ability to understand and support individuals from diverse backgrounds. These experiences have uniquely equipped me to provide compassionate and
effective counseling.

In my therapeutic practice, I integrate a range of effective methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. My commitment to psycho-education ensures that those I work with have the knowledge and tools necessary to achieve personal growth. I believe in the power of therapy to guide individuals from a place of despair and vulnerability to one of strength, recovery, and happiness.

My faith as a Christian counselor informs my compassionate approach. I aim to be a conduit for growth and healing, helping individuals renew their minds and embrace a healthier mindset. It is gratifying to witness those I work with evolve from deep depression and anxiety to newfound hope and resilience. I love helping individuals and couples achieve peace, personal insight, and an empowered mindset to face life transitions and future challenges.
