Michelle Tillman-Cureton

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping Black women navigate relationship trauma, chronic stress, and the emotional toll of high-functioning expectations. My work focuses on attachment patterns, emotional regulation, and restoring a grounded sense of self. I practice through a trauma-informed, culturally responsive lens and prioritize a therapeutic alliance built on trust, empowerment, and shared decision-making. Healing requires both safety and accountability — and I hold space for both. My clinical background includes collaborative work within integrated care models, partnering with psychiatric providers to ensure comprehensive biopsychosocial treatment planning. I value coordinated care that honors both scientific rigor and relational depth. In addition to clinical practice, I serve as Board Member and Co-Chair for BraveWorks, contributing to strategic leadership and mental health advocacy initiatives. I am currently pursuing certification through the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT), expanding my clinical expertise in relational and sexual health through specialized training and supervised practice. I am also a mental health writer and speaker focused on trauma-informed care, emotional resilience, and relational healing for Black women. I welcome opportunities for workshops, panel discussions, podcast interviews, and professional collaborations centered on culturally responsive mental health care.

Virtual • Candler, NC


I believe everyone deserves to experience the joy and peace that comes from healing. If you're feeling stuck in darkness, weighed down by past experiences, or caught in negative thought patterns, you're not alone—and you don't have to navigate it by yourself.

For more than 34 years, I've helped individuals, primarily women, heal from trauma, build self-esteem, and create meaningful, lasting change. I have advanced training in EMDR and specialize in helping clients process traumatic experiences so they can move forward with greater confidence and emotional freedom.

My approach is holistic, recognizing the connection between your mind, body, and emotions. Together, we'll create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to reach your therapy goals. My hope is to help you move beyond simply surviving so you can fully experience the joy, fulfillment, and life you deserve.
