Hi everyone! I’m Carrington Harris, a Clinical Mental Health Counseling Intern at Primary Care Solutions.

I’m currently in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling (CMHC) program at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke (UNCP), where I’m gaining hands-on experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges.

I’m especially interested in working with teens, adolescents, and adults who may be navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress, or self-esteem concerns.

My approach is person-centered, strengths-based, and CBT-informed, meaning I work alongside clients to help them better understand their thoughts, build healthy coping skills, and move toward meaningful growth. My goal is to create a space that feels safe, supportive, and judgment-free.

If you’re new to therapy or just looking for extra support, you’re not alone and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

All services are provided under the supervision of a licensed mental health professional.

I’m currently accepting new clients! To get started or learn more, reach out to Primary Care Solutions.

Message us on Facebook or call 910-536-1027 to schedule an appointment today.

We take most major insurances! Medicaid, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Aetna, & Medicare.
