Who We Are

---

My name is Denise Rothman and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina and Licensed Professional Counselor in both South Carolina and New Jersey.  I graduated with my Master's Degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University.  

I have experience treating children, adolescents, and adults with various difficulties including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, ADHD, developmental disorders, attachment and adjustment disorders. 

I offer a welcoming, non-judgmental approach in working with my clients to help them achieve personal fulfillment and individual growth.

My experience includes private practice and working as an in home therapist with children, adults, and seniors in the community for many years. I have come to appreciate the importance of a supportive family and community environment in the healthy growth and development of all individuals.

While my primary therapeutic approach is Cognitive Behavioral, I am trained in providing Christian Counseling. 

I believe that personal change can be effectively initiated by exploring behaviors that are not working well in our lives, and by looking at thought patterns that do not support healthy positive growth. In changing both thought and behavior, people see personal growth and maintain more positive relationships and lifestyles.

​I am a Certified Trainer in The Nurtured Heart Approach® to treating children and families.

My name is Rick Rothman and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina, South Carolina and New Jersey.

I strongly believe in treating the person as a unique person given their individual needs. I primarily practice cognitive-behavior therapy utilizing an eclectic style and often use anecdotes, paradoxes, and especially humor in order to enhance, educate, and assist in reaching each person’s goals.

I have a specialty in treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Panic Disorders, and Anxiety and am a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional. While I specialize in treating those suffering OCD, Panic, and Anxiety, I am equally proud of the successes I’ve had in helping those with Adjustment Disorders, Stress Management, Depression, Relationship Difficulties, and Family Concerns. My clinical experience includes individual, marital/couple, family, and group therapy of adolescents, adults, and older adults. 

As a husband and parent, I understand and empathize with the difficulties that many of us face in our day-to-day lives.

I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from the University of Georgia and a Master’s Degree in Social Work from Fordham University. I am a member of the National Association of Social Workers and am a certified school social worker. 

In addition to working with clients, I am certified to provide Clinical Supervision and training to clinical social work trainees and to those seeking LCSW licensure.

I have been a Social Worker for over 25 years and have been in private practice for over 12 years. I offer experience having worked as both a clinical provider and administrator in private practice, hospital, partial care, and long-term care settings.
