Join us in welcoming Dejah Fingland, our newest Mental Health Therapist!

Learn more about her through her bio below and please reach out if you’d like to get connected for a free phone consultation.

I’m a client-centered counselor who values the therapeutic relationship as a powerful tool for growth and change. My approach blends cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused techniques, as well as experiential and somatic practices, all rooted in the “here and now” of our work together. I believe in helping clients identify and increase joyful behaviors as tangible indicators of change, while also offering space to explore and process difficult emotions safely.

I work with people ages 12 and up, with a special focus on adolescents and young adults navigating the changes, challenges, and opportunities that come with life transitions. Many of the people I work with are seeking to build a more compassionate and trusting relationship with their bodies and with food, often in the context of disordered eating or recovery from chronic dieting. My focus is on helping clients break free from shame and rigid rules, and move toward a more flexible, intuitive, and affirming approach to nourishment and self-care. I bring a particular passion for supporting fat folks who want a therapist who understands life in a larger body from personal experience.
I am LGBTQ+ affirming and welcome clients from many different backgrounds and lived experiences. In addition to working with individuals, I’m open to working with families, and I am passionate about supporting parents and caregivers in creating safer and more body-positive cultures at home. My aim is to nurture collaboration, encourage curiosity, and help clients connect with their innate resilience so they can move toward a life that feels more authentic.

Fun fact: My favorite place in Raleigh is the Raleigh Rose Garden.

Our leadership team spent the afternoon moving, connecting, dreaming, and enjoying yummy drinks and eats in Raleigh. Relationships are everything to us, and wow did it feel good just to be together today.

Wishing y’all a spacious weekend of just what you need. 💛

Divesting from diet culture can be exhausting when we are constantly bombarded with messages to be smaller. Diet culture is the water we are swimming in. We need each other to recharge, regroup, and sustain the work of body liberation.

Welcome to a space for meaningful dialogue and reflection to reclaim our relationship with our bodies and movement. We have noticed the power and healing that comes from sharing and hearing other’s stories. The truth is, your challenges are not happening in a vacuum. They are happening in a system that continually tries to enforce an oppressive hierarchy of bodies. We need community to divest from these systems and heal from past experiences.

Each month, Recharge will have a new topic for guided conversation. September is all about listening to your body with guided experiences to build the skill of tuning in. We hope to see you on Saturday, September 13 from 12:45-1:45pm!

We are thrilled to share this upcoming workshop led by Ragen Chastain!

Movement/fitness/exercise by any definition is never an obligation or barometer of worthiness. But for fat people who want to move our bodies within a fat positive, Health at Every Size framework - whether it’s because we enjoy it, or because of the benefits) we get from it (even if we don’t enjoy it), whatever our reasons, a fatphobic culture can create barriers, misinformation, and other difficulties for us.

In this workshop we’ll explore tips, tricks, and information to help us move our bodies for our own reasons, within a fat positive framework.

Join us on Saturday, October 4th from 1:00-2:30pm!

Base price: $20, Supporter price: $30, Sustainer price $40

Join us in welcoming Duncan Bordeaux, LCSWA! Duncan joined our team this summer. Check out his bio below and please reach out if you’d like to get connected for a free phone consultation.

I work with young people, adolescents, adults, and families of all configurations, with a special focus on the LGBTQIA+ community and relationship building. I have experience working with clients from a wide range of cultural and socio-economic backgrounds as well a passion for creating safe and healthy spaces for people to explore themselves and their relationships. I additionally specialize in helping people navigate nonmonogamous, poly, q***r, kink, and otherwise nontraditional relationships as well as the feelings that come along with them.

I seek to build a relationship that we can use to establish your future goals and the skills to help you achieve them, develop tools for navigating tough relationships, and shed a little clarity on the chaos of life’s changes and transitions. I endeavor to help you discover and utilize your strengths to guide you to break out of patterns that don’t serve you.

My hope is to create a space where you can safely and securely express and explore the difficult emotions that you experience in your life. I intend to nurture collaboration that allows you to achieve your goals and to be there to support you in becoming a stronger, more resilient you!

Parenthood is demanding — we hold and carry our babies, lug car seats and diaper bags, push strollers, squat to pick up toys off the floor, climb stairs, transfer our babies into and out of a crib.

Our upcoming series is designed for postpartum birth parents ready to connect with their strength in a supportive space.

Join Amanda Pope, certified personal trainer and pre/post-natal specialist (and mom!) for this series where we’ll move with care, rejecting the idea of “bouncing back. Instead, we’ll shift the focus to the many benefits of postpartum movement that have nothing to do with how our bodies look.

There’ll also be room for discussion and connection with fellow parents!

Join us in welcoming our newest practitioner, Chinyere Chima! Check out her bio below and please reach out if you’d like to get connected.

Hello, I’m Dr. Chinyere Chima, DNP, FNP, PMHP, a dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with Rejuve Mind & Body Wellness. I provide compassionate, evidence-based care to clients across North Carolina and Maryland.
My approach is holistic - treating the whole person, mind and body - and integrating medication management with supportive, collaborative care. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults, addressing concerns. such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, life transitions, and more.

I offer both in-person appointments here at Current Wellness in Raleigh and secure telehealth sessions to make care accessible and convenient. All major insurances as listed on my website, as well as cash pay options, are accepted.

My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered on their journey toward wellness. When I’m not working with clients, I enjoy exploring Raleigh’s local food scene, traveling to learn about other cultures and ways of life, and spending time with family and friends. I look forward to working with you on your journey to achieve balanced, optimal physical and mental well-being.

We believe in the power of movement as a vehicle to connect to our bodies and sense of self. Whether it’s grounding in a Flow Yoga class or finding strength in a Tidal Intervals class, we’ve seen how these practices can help people feel more at home in their bodies.

But what happens when movement isn’t quite enough?

What if you leave class feeling overwhelmed or emotional? What if you’ve worked so hard to reconnect with your body, but there are still thoughts or patterns holding you back? This is where individual therapy can be a transformative next step.

It’s not always easy to feel at home in your body-especially during adolescence. This 6-week group is designed to support teens in reconnecting with their bodies in a safe, creative, and judgment-free environment.

Instead of focusing on appearance or weight, we’ll explore what it means to feel present, resourced, and supported from the inside out.

Whether you’ve experienced body-based bullying, struggled with food and body thoughts, or simply feel disconnected from yourself, this group offers space to be curious and compassionate. Each session includes grounding, movement, creative expression (like journaling or collage), and time for authentic connection.

You can learn more and sign up at the link in our bio. Reach out with any questions you have!

Huge thanks to for providing these beautiful blue crabs for class yesterday! Everyone’s crab IQ went up and it was a fun time picking crabs and feasting on them with compound butter, crab-stuffed mushrooms, grilled watermelon and peaches, and NC shrimp.

We’re right in the middle of blue crab season in North Carolina and brings them in fresh from the coast throughout the week. Pre-order by noon on Friday to get them for the weekend or they have them first-come, first-serve at their market in east Raleigh (along with lots of other shellfish and fin fish options). Thanks again, Locals!
