Midweek got you feeling down? Maybe it’s time to prioritize your mental health and process those feelings with a professional.

Allow me to reintroduce myself; my name is Meredith Critelli, owner and therapist of Salt and Light Counseling in downtown Angier. I’m passionate about serving my community and helping people heal emotionally and mentally.

I currently have Monday-Friday spots available with flexible times. These are for either in-person sessions (in downtown Angier) or virtual sessions. Currently accepting Aetna, Cigna and United Healthcare insurances. Private pay options also available.

Reach out today to reserve your time. I’m always open for a phone call or free 15 minute consult to see if we are a good match.

I can’t wait to walk with you through your brighter path forward.

Have you ever looked for a support group only to find nothing that quite fits your specific situation? We are changing that. At Salt and Light Counseling, we believe therapy should be as unique as the people seeking it.

We are now accepting ideas for our Summer in-person sessions in Angier. If you have a concept for a group—whether it’s for specific parenting challenges, niche anxiety support, or professional burnout—share it with us. Once four people express interest in a topic, we launch the group.

How it works:
You Choose the Topic: Tell us what you need.

Flexible Scheduling: Members decide the time together.

Accessible Care: $60 per session; no insurance required.

Commitment: 6-week initial sessions to build real connection.

Comment below with your group idea or message us privately to start the conversation.

As the clouds linger outside the office on this Ash Wednesday, I’m reminded that even in the grayest moments, there’s a chance for reflection and renewal. Today marks the start of Lent; a time to look inward, let go of what weighs us down, and make space for hope to grow. For those that don’t follow Lenten tradition, it’s still an opportunity to step back and take a look over how your new year is going. Is there anything that needs refreshing? What is creating heaviness for you?

May this season bring peace, purpose, and gentle light to all of us, no matter how cloudy the skies.

I’m accepting new clients for mental health counseling! Reach out for a free consult today.

It is C O L D!

Cold weather often encourages us to stay indoors, yet research consistently shows that spending time outside supports mental health, even during winter months. Exposure to natural light helps regulate circadian rhythms and can improve mood, energy, and sleep. Time outdoors has also been linked to reduced stress levels and improved emotional regulation.

Gentle movement outside, such as walking, increases blood flow and supports the release of endorphins, which are associated with improved mood and decreased symptoms of anxiety and depression. Even short, consistent periods outdoors can have meaningful mental health benefits.

While these practices are supportive, they are not a substitute for deeper emotional care. Therapy provides space to explore patterns, process stress, and develop tools that strengthen resilience through every season.

At Salt and Light Counseling, I offer a calm, warm, and supportive environment for healing and growth. If you have been feeling the weight of this season, support is available, and you do not have to navigate it alone.

This is your brighter path forward.

My clients, both new and long-time, never cease to amaze me. Week after week and month after month, they continue to show up for themselves. I have the privilege of walking alongside them and witnessing real transformation. It is humbling and inspiring every time.

If you have been considering therapy, this may be your moment. Appointments at Salt and Light Counseling are filling quickly, and I would be honored to walk alongside you, too. Healing happens here. This is your brighter path forward.
