About Russell

Russell Goodwin is a solutions-focused Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina who works with adults facing depression, anxiety, life transitions, and deeper emotional challenges. He blends practical strategies with collaborative goal-setting to help people move from feeling stuck to gaining clarity and forward momentum. By examining how thoughts influence emotions and behaviors, he supports clients in creating realistic, values-driven plans that produce steady progress rather than prolonged rumination.

His approach emphasizes direction and action - identifying what matters most to the client and setting attainable steps toward those aims. Russell draws on evidence-informed techniques while tailoring interventions to each person’s unique situation, whether the concerns relate to relationships, career, addiction, parenting, trauma, or self-esteem. He frames therapy as a partnership in which goals are rooted in the client’s priorities and strengths.

Important note: Russell is available for live chat and messaging therapy only - audio and video sessions are not offered. He offers late evening availability most nights from 9 pm to 12 am. If the timing and format fit a prospective client’s needs, Russell can be contacted to schedule an initial session. LCMHC stands for Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, a professional license to provide clinical counseling in North Carolina.

Approaches that guide online care and practical change

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, then identify personal values to guide meaningful action - it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns, often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress management. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, achievable steps and the client’s existing strengths to create momentum and real-world progress, which fits well for people seeking clear goals and quicker changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Russell collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. The aim is a tailored, practical path informed by the client’s priorities.

Online therapy with a licensed professional offers flexibility - sessions can take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. This range of formats supports consistent access to care and allows clients to choose the communication style that feels most comfortable and effective for them.
