Paige Bentley, PhD, LCMHCS, ACC, SEP, RYT

I obtained my doctorate in Counseling and Counselor Education from UNC-Greensboro and my master’s degree in counseling from Wake Forest University. I am licensed in the state of North Carolina to provide psychotherapy and clinical supervision. I am a certified Somatic Experiencing practitioner, EMDR certified therapist, clinical hypnotherapist, Associate Certified Coach, and a registered yoga teacher. I have additional training and certification in Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and grief. I have been providing counseling since 2002. I have adopted a holistic, strengths-based, trauma-informed approach to my work. I believe that all people have the potential for successfully meeting life’s challenges and for dancing with life’s unanswerable, existential questions and that seeking counseling is a healthy step in that process. My primary goal as a counselor is to help clients connect with their innate capacity for wholeness.

Senior Mental Health Counselor

I earned my graduate degrees from Wake Forest University and am licensed by the state of North Carolina as a licensed clinical mental health counselor supervisor. Prior to joining Counseling and Well-being services at the school of medicine, I practiced at the Downtown Health Plaza and the Reynolda campus of Wake Forest University. I have worked with clients experiencing a wide spectrum of mental health concerns, including but not limited to: anxiety, depression, interpersonal issues, family of origin issues, multicultural issues, spiritual and existential issues, and self-esteem challenges. I believe that the client-counselor relationship is one of the most important tools in developing a healthy and helpful experience for my clients. Although my therapeutic approach is flexible, in the most recent past, I have spent significant time using Person-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, Solution-Focused, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy approaches as my primary therapeutic modalities. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy.
