Leigh McKay

LCMHC, LMFT

I was raised in Central Illinois and moved to North Carolina 20 years ago. I completed my Bachelor of Science in Marketing, along with a Master of Science in College Student Personnel Administration from Illinois State University, and earned my Master of Counseling with a focus on marriage and family therapy from Messiah University. I worked with students at two universities and was a community homeschool educator for seven years. During that time, I was able to provide educational and emotional support to those around me. Since joining private practice as a family and teen therapist in Holly Springs, I have been able to provide counseling to teenagers and families through collaboration as they are trying to reduce the struggles of daily living, with varying degrees of complexity. I am eager to provide therapy and support to teenagers (14+) and families across the Holly Springs area as they are trying to navigate social pressures, life transitions, anxiety, grief, depression, and ADHD.


I am also qualified to treat the following mental health conditions as a family therapist in Holly Springs:

  • Anxiety

  • Depression

  • ADHD

  • Women’s Issues


In addition, I am also able to help individuals understand and cope with the following issues:

  • School Issues

  • Stress management

  • Grief

  • Conduct/Behavior Problems

  • Social Skills

  • Parent Coaching 

  • Emotion regulation


As an experienced teen and family therapist serving Holly Springs, I believe in creating a strong therapeutic relationship that is safe, open-minded, and non-judgmental. I believe every person and family is unique and deserves to find the therapeutic process that best fits their needs. I will take the time, using a systemic approach, to collaborate with each client to achieve their goals. I frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Solutions Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) with clients. I am excited to meet you and begin the therapeutic relationship as we do the work to achieve your goals with family counseling and parent coaching services in Holly Springs.
