Please help us welcome Darius McClain, LMFT, to the PFBH family!

Darius works with teens, adults, couples, and families and brings experience from school, inpatient, and outpatient behavioral health settings.

His approach to therapy centers around understanding the stories and experiences that shape our lives, and recognizing that those stories don’t have to determine what comes next.

Using Narrative Therapy along with techniques from CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy, Darius helps clients identify patterns, work through conflict, strengthen relationships, and experiment with healthier ways of moving forward.

He works with clients experiencing concerns such as:

• Marriage and relationship difficulties
• Family conflict and dysfunction
• Parenting challenges
• Teen behavioral concerns
• Substance use
• Internal conflict and emotional challenges

Darius believes that openness, curiosity, and a genuine desire for growth can help people discover possibilities they may not have thought were available to them.

Outside of therapy, Darius describes himself as a husband, learner, and “renaissance man” who enjoys new experiences, people, and ideas. One of his long-term dreams is to create a Parenting Institute where families, therapists, and educators can work together to help the next generation thrive.

Darius is accepting clients ages 13+ in North Carolina, with virtual appointments available for South Carolina residents.

Welcome to PFBH, Darius! 💙

What exactly is TMS? 🤔​

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-drug, non-invasive treatment that uses targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain involved in mood regulation.*​

Treatment takes place right in a doctor's office, requires no anesthesia, and patients can return to their normal daily activities afterward.​

If antidepressants haven't provided the relief you were hoping for, NeuroStar TMS may be an option worth exploring. 💜​Schedule a consultation to learn more.

For years, Joyce's depression with anxiety kept her mind in overdrive. Racing thoughts and sleepless nights became her normal, making it difficult to enjoy the things she loved.​

A few weeks into NeuroStar TMS therapy, her husband noticed something different - a lighter mood and signs that Joyce was beginning to feel more like herself again.​

Now, she's spending more time outdoors, caring for her flowers, and embracing a more active lifestyle. It's the little moments that mean the most. 💜🌷​

We are excited to welcome Raymond “Ray” Castillo, LMFT-S, as the new Regional Clinical Director for Pediatric & Family Behavioral Health.

Ray brings a strong clinical and leadership background to PFBH, with years of experience serving individuals, couples, families, and adolescents across outpatient and higher levels of care. He is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, an approved clinical supervisor, and a thoughtful leader who understands the importance of building programs that are clinically strong, patient-centered, and deeply connected to the needs of the community.

On a personal note, I have known Ray for the past three years, and during that time our professional relationship has grown through many conversations about the future of mental health care. We have often viewed this work through a similar lens: that mental health care should be compassionate, accessible, collaborative, and built around the real needs of patients and families.

The fact that we now get to put into action the projects we have dreamed about and discussed for years is truly a dream come true.

Ray will play an important role in helping lead PFBH’s therapy-related initiatives, supporting clinical growth, strengthening our team, and helping develop future programs that expand access to meaningful care across our community.

Please join us in welcoming Ray Castillo to PFBH. We are grateful to have him on the team and excited for what is ahead.
