The Cary Therapist,
Dr. Wendy O’Connor.
Evidence-based therapy for meaningful change.
Empowering you to heal, grow, and thrive.
Whether you’re navigating high-functioning anxiety, self-doubt, relationship dissatisfaction, or major life transitions I’m here to help you break through what’s holding you back.
Based in Cary, North Carolina but serving patients state-wide, I provide science-backed therapy for those who want to live better.
Together we will do more than manage your symptoms, we will create lasting change from the inside out. My approach is grounded in what works best, tools from both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Positive Psychology.
You may be wondering “Will therapy help me?”
My Answer: If you are the kind of person who values having the best strategies to feel better and the drive to put them into action, then yes.
You’re about to:
Feel less anxious, overwhelmed, and drained.
Build self-confidence and quiet your inner critic.
Learn how to create boundaries that protect your energy and spirit
Break free from people pleasing.
Navigate your career and relationships with clarity and courage.
