Meet Seth
Seth Edwards, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the triangle area of NC, specializes in counseling for adults and older adolescents. He holds a Master of Social Work from UNC Chapel Hill and a Bachelor of Social Work from UNC Greensboro. Seth’s career commenced with in-home outpatient counseling and clinical assessments at a community mental health setting. This experience enabled Seth to refine his abilities in formulating mental health diagnoses, providing sound treatment recommendations, and offering therapy to clients across various age groups. Seth subsequently transitioned to private practice, where he has continued to deliver counseling services to adolescents and adults.
Seth’s areas of specialization include anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, and ADHD.

About Acacia Collaborative Psychological Services
We are a group therapy practice in North Carolina. With two clinics, in Durham and Raleigh, we serve the triangle area through in-person therapy & serve all of NC through convenient online therapy. Acacia Collaborative currently accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, North Carolina State Plan, as well as self-pay and out of network.
Why did we choose the name Acacia? The Acacia tree (pronounced Ah-KAY-shah) is a medicinal tree that looks quite different depending on the environment in which it has grown; leafy in more nutrient-rich environments and thorny in a less supportive one. This represents how people develop ways of coping with their circumstances or finding ways to overcome adversity in their lives.
Sometimes we may continue to think, feel, and behave in ways that once worked for us but now no longer provide the desired result. This is where Acacia Collaborative comes in. We can help you identify what may be causing more pain than joy in your life, introduce to you other, more effective options, and help eliminate roadblocks that are preventing you from experiencing a more fulfilled life. We chose a full leafy tree as our logo to convey the growth and enrichment possible through therapy.
