Meliké Warrick, LCSW

Location(s): Chapel Hill
I believe the ultimate goal of therapy is to help people feel more alive and develop a compassionate and loving relationship with themselves. I use humanistic, DBT, compassion-focused and mindfulness approaches and encourage clients to cultivate curiosity instead of judgment of self and others. I am drawn to experiential therapies and believe that healthy relationships, including the therapeutic relationship, have transformative power when we are able to fully experience their healing power in the present moment. Other models I have learned about and used in my evolution as a psychotherapist are Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, the Trauma Resiliency Model (similar to Somatic Experiencing), Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and Non-violent Communication (NVC).
