Outpatient Therapy Services
Expert, Compassionate Therapy for Children, Youth, Adults & Families
At EFC, we believe every person deserves access to high-quality mental health care — regardless of how they pay for it. We are proud to now offer outpatient therapy services through private pay or insurance claims, expanding our reach to even more individuals and families across North Carolina.
Our licensed clinicians bring specialized training in evidence-based therapies proven to make a real difference. Whether you're a caregiver at your breaking point, a young person struggling with anxiety, or a family navigating the aftermath of trauma — we are here, and we are equipped to help.
Who We Serve
Therapy for Every Stage, Every Story
We provide individual and family therapy for children, adolescents, and adults. Our clinicians have deep expertise serving those impacted by:
Trauma & PTSD
Caregiver Stress & Burnout
Child Behavior Problems
Oppositional Defiant Disorder
ADHD
Autism Spectrum Disorder
Youth Substance Use
Anxiety
Depression
Family Conflict
We take a whole-family approach. When a child is struggling, the whole family feels it — and when a caregiver is supported, everyone benefits. Our therapists work with parents, guardians, and family members as partners in the healing process.
Please note:
We provide therapy services only. We do not offer medication management, psychiatric evaluation, or prescription services. If medication may be part of your care, we are happy to coordinate with your prescribing provider.
Evidence-Based Approaches
Treatments That Work
Every therapy we offer has been rigorously researched and validated. We don't take a one-size-fits-all approach — your clinician will work with you to identify the right fit for your needs and goals.
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
A gold-standard treatment for children and adolescents who have experienced trauma. TF-CBT helps young people process difficult experiences, reduce trauma symptoms, and rebuild a sense of safety — with caregivers actively involved throughout.
Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT)
Designed for young children and their caregivers, PCIT strengthens the parent-child relationship, reduces defiant and disruptive behavior, and builds positive parenting skills — through live, coached sessions in real time.
Multidimensional Family Therapy (MDFT)
A comprehensive family-based treatment for adolescents struggling with substance use and related behavioral issues. MDFT addresses the individual, family, school, and community factors that contribute to and sustain these challenges.
Outpatient Individual & Family Therapy
General outpatient therapy is available for children, youth, and adults. Sessions are tailored to your unique concerns and goals, drawing from a range of evidence-based approaches.
