Worthy love doesn’t ask you to shrink, chase, or prove. It meets you where your wholeness lives in peace and presence. #lmft #ncrealestate #ncnailtech #mentalwellbeing #emotionalmaturity #emotionalfreedomtechnique

The rollercoaster isn’t love it’s a nervous system caught in survival mode. Just because the sweet moments feel intense doesn’t mean they’re healthy. You deserve consistency, not chemistry that comes with whiplash. #nctherapist #couplestherapy #emotionalabuse #sovereign #ncnails #ncphotography #raleighnc

Recovery can look like softness. It can look like resting under trees, letting the sun kiss your skin, and reminding yourself that you are still becoming. This was season I was nurturing myself deeply. Touching grass. Grieving what hurt. Dancing just because. Writing what I needed to release. To the women healing from emotional abuse you are not behind. You are not too much. You are not broken. You are waking up to how amazing you truly are. #EvolveWithMaRay #HealingInNature #SoftLifeHealing #EmotionalAbuseRecovery #RestIsMedicine

Most of my child clients want the benefits of having healthier parents. The same way partners want the benefits of having a healthier partner. #lmft #parenting #couplestherapy

I am officially fully licensed!! Celebrating a massive milestone in my career. I’m so proud of myself😌 12% of LMFTs are black, and I’m one of them🥳 #lmft #therapistofinstagram I’ve been playing things pretty safe in my career because I had this underlying fear that I wouldn’t make it due to the obstacles that come with being a black woman in America if I’m being honest, but despite the challenges, I accomplished my childhood dream; my inner child is jumping for joy ❤️☺️

I’m MaRay your guide to healing, connection, and evolution. I help you unpack the stories you’ve been carrying, unlearn the patterns that no longer serve you, and evolve into your most authentic self. Through a mix of somatic healing, trauma processing and honest reflection, we’ll dive into the parts of life and love others avoid so you can feel more connected, seen, and empowered. #nctherapist #raleigh #somatichealing #ifstherapy #evolvetogether

It’s about time I reintroduce myself: My name is MaRay Crockett, and I am a Marriage and Family Therapist in North Carolina. I have experience guiding and helping clients struggling with insecure attachment issues, PTSD/ Trauma, infidelity, anxiety, depression, communication issues, low self-esteem, and intimacy. I also work with Poly/Kink/ENM clients who are navigating nontraditional relationships/lifestyles. Relationships take work, even the relationship you have with yourself. As an LMFT, I help individuals and couples navigate tough conversations, break unhealthy patterns, and build connections that feel honest, loving, and aligned with who they truly are. Here are a few fun facts about me: 🌿 I can talk about taboo topics all day. ☀️I have a “grand” therapist that I greatly appreciate. 🌴I believe being a therapist is a part of my purpose, and the ability to be a therapist is a privilege and honor. 🌿I do not care if you show up to your session in a bonnet or comfy clothes. ☀️I do not expect an apology if your kids are vying for attention during your session. Children are children. 🌴I can handle the truth, even if you think it may disappoint me. 🌿I love makeup artistry and creative self-expression. ☀️I love reading about psychology and adding to my book collection. I typically do not recommend literature I have not read first. #lmft #couplestherapy #nctherapist #blacktherapists #emotionallyfocusedtherapy #somatictherapy #emdr #traumatherapist #raleightherapist #ifs #ENM #polytherapist #lgbtqia+

Parts mapping and unburdening has been a game changer for my couples work. If you are interested in a new approach you may enjoy IFS couples therapy. #ifstherapy #couplestherapy #lmft
