I’ll be completely honest, Maurice wasn’t who I thought I needed as a counselor at first. He was quick to identify things about the way “I am,” and at those times they felt inaccurate. But a little patience and a few sessions later it became obvious that he never stops learning, and he’s quick to revise his assumptions as he goes along. Maurice has become a good friend to lean on when I need to. He doesn’t push me to talk about heavy stuff when I don’t want to; he’s just as willing to gossip about random things going on in the world. Even then, something about him tells me he’s still doing the most to learn about me as a person. And when the heavy stuff does come up, he quickly switches to be there for me. And in those moments all that listening he’s done helps him know how to be there in just the right ways. As much as he saves me from the depths of my own mind, he is great at also giving me actionable things to do on my own to care for myself when he’s not around. Thank you Maurice.

Hello, I am Angelo Maurice Covington (Maurice), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina. I studied at Appalachian State University (North Carolina) and at the University of Iowa. Living in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Iowa has provided me a chance to live around a variety of individuals in different cultural environments around the country. Therefore, my therapeutic approach is varied and open to people from all walks of life. My main focus is helping you find ways to be your main support.
I normally provide a mix of Person-centered therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I feel that it is best to allow you the opportunity to tell your story in an open environment with guidance on developing coping strategies or setting goals that will be effective and useful for your personal growth.
When I am not providing assistance and therapy to the individuals I serve, I enjoy reading books (suspense, crime, biographies), riding bikes, and spending time with my family.
If you are ready to tell your story, find errors in your thinking, and set on your path of healing, I am the person for you. I am excited to have the opportunity to assist you along this journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Always good questions and insights
Maurice does been great on working with me reframing my perspective on the things about myself that I struggle with and how they relate to the day-to-day world.
Maurice has been amazing! Exactly what I need as a black man during these times!
Maurice is an amazing counselor who challenges me to see things from an objective perspective. He gives me the tools to succeed and encourages me to safely lean into my fears and anxiety.
He has truly been more than anticipated. A true gem. Caring, understanding, but challenges your thought process to better help you process and think differently about certain situations. Give him a try
Angelo, also knowns as Maurice, is a good therapist. He listens and give valuable feedback. I really like talking to him, his voice is calming and he is obviously educated in this field and knows what he is doing.
Working with Angelo has been great. I feel he cares about my success and helping me through issues. Angelo is easy to talk to as well.
Mr. Covington is a wonderful and encouraging person. He can quickly point out things that would have taken me years to realize about myself, and he gives many constructive tools to help. He makes sure he creates a comfortable space for his clients and I always leave every session feeling better and more enlightened than when it started. He is truly a gem and I’m so thankful our paths crossed!
Angelo's approach works well with my self-guided efforts to stay dry, mindful and thinking clearly about myself and my marriage. I know he is not just reviewing what we have discussed, but is also thinking ahead.
I can honestly say he’s the first counselor I’ve felt comfortable with in my 25 years of living.
Mr Covington is very empathetic and he provides great feedback.
Angelo Covington is absolutely amazing. He pushed me in a positive way to get to the root of my issues and gave me numerous ways to work around those issues. He also really helped me open my eyes to how the way I handled situations really affected the people around me and that I care about. I made a lot of progress while working with him.
Angelo Covington is great. He was very intuitive to my needs and asked just the right questions to get me to open up. He was able to quickly pinpoint my troubles and knew exactly what to do to help. Thank You, Angelo.
I've thoroughly enjoyed having Angelo as a therapist. He has been an excellent listener and provider of guidance. He would be the first therapist I talk to whenever I need another therapist and I've already recommended betterhelp.com to another friend.
Wonderful, attentive and observant counselor. Ask all the right questions and makes sure he gets the details. Able to understand how you need to hear things in order for you to make progress to make a difference in your issues. Great at making time for sessions and working around schedules. Just easy to talk too and all around great at what he does.
Good counseling and coaching. Kind and reflective and providing me with tools to reinforce any guidance given.
