🌟 Meet Christina Alkire, LCMHCA – Our New Therapist Specializing in S*x & S*xuality 🌟

We’re excited to welcome Christina Alkire, LCMHCA to our team! Christina’s passion lies in creating a safe, affirming space for individuals exploring the many layers of s*x, s*xuality, and identity.

Her ideal clients are those navigating concerns such as:
✨ Out-of-control s*xual behavior (s*x addiction)
✨ Desire discrepancies or low desire
✨ S*xual dysfunction
✨ Nonconventional or kink interests
✨ Gender and orientation questioning
✨ Open, polyamorous, or polycule relationship dynamics
✨ Life within any s*xual minority category

If society tends to push it into the closet — Christina wants to help bring it into the light with compassion and understanding.

She is kink-allied, s*x-positive, and committed to supporting clients as they seek clarity, healing, and self-acceptance in their s*xual selves.

💬 Whether you’re seeking a space to process shame, explore identity, or navigate relational complexity, Christina offers a nonjudgmental and knowledgeable environment where all parts of you are welcome.

📅 Christina is currently accepting new clients!

🌿 Community, Connection, and Good Food 🌿

We’re still smiling from our Annual LMV Counseling Cookout this past weekend! 🍔☀️

It was such a joy to gather with our team, families, and friends — sharing food, laughter, and connection outside the therapy room. These moments remind us that healing and growth don’t just happen in sessions… they also happen around tables, in conversations, and in community. 💙

Thank you to everyone who came out and made the day so special. We’re already looking forward to next year!

The way you talk to yourself shapes how you show up in the world. This week, try replacing ‘I can’t do this’ with ‘I’ll do my best.’ Your words have power—use them to lift yourself up. What’s one positive thing you can say to yourself today? 💬✨

Honoring Native American Day

Today, we pause to honor the resilience, cultures, and contributions of Indigenous peoples—past and present. Here in North Carolina, many Native communities—including the Lumbee, Coharie, and Waccamaw Siouan—continue to shape this land and its stories.

At LMV Counseling, we believe healing must include the honoring of ancestral truths, cultural identity, and the collective wisdom carried through generations.

For those whose heritage includes Indigenous roots, this day may stir pride, grief, complexity—or all of the above. Your experiences matter. Your healing matters.

✨ May today be a reminder that honoring culture is part of honoring mental health.

✨ Monday Motivation ✨

You don’t have to have it all figured out to take the next step.

Healing doesn’t happen in a straight line. Some days feel heavy. Some days feel hopeful. Both are part of the process.

Whether you're setting a boundary, getting out of bed, or just pausing to breathe—you are doing meaningful work.

Let this week be less about perfection, and more about presence.

You’re not behind. You’re becoming.
