Naja describes who she works best with and how she helps.
Naja A., MA, LCMHCA
Let me ask you this: Do you ever feel alone, even when surrounded by people? Are you seeking external validation? Who taught you that your voice wasn't enough? Life is often complicated and can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. By being here, you’re already making an important move toward self-discovery! I’m a licensed therapist in Charlotte, NC, here to support you as you uncover more about yourself, boost your confidence, and reclaim control of your life.
I work with kids through adults, helping them as they navigate anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, family challenges, or difficulty connecting with others. In our sessions, you’ll find a safe, warm, and supportive space where you can feel truly seen and heard, as you learn to validate and lean into the power of your own voice.
I use a mix of person-centered therapy, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), and grounding techniques to help you feel empowered, supported, and ready to grow.
My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are—no judgment, no pressure—just a place to be unapologetically yourself as we work together toward healing, confidence, and growth.

When I’m not in therapist mode, I’m…
I love watching documentaries, trying new restaurants, taking walks outside, listening to music, and spending time with my friends and family.
