Hi, I'm Chatham
Chatham Ripple is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and a Certified Yoga Teacher offering online counseling and therapeutic yoga throughout the state of North Carolina.
About Me
My first clinical experiences were through internships at New River Behavioral Healthcare in Boone, Horse Sense of the Carolinas in Asheville and Anuvia Prevention and Recovery Center in Charlotte. Then, I worked for several years with “in-home” community support therapy services.
In 2014, I opened a private practice called Ripple Counseling and Wellness where I have been providing counseling services to children, adolescents, adults, families. I have been a fully Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina (License #8446) since 2012.
​
Prior to being a therapist, I worked at the Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center in the Neurobehavioral Research Lab and Clinic as a Research Assistant and the Department of Psychiatry as a Patient Referral Coordinator.
​
Currently, I enjoy spending time with my husband and being with my kids. My biggest passion has always been, and will always be, horses!
