About Ase Healing Center (Delores Place)

Ase Healing Center (Delores Place) is a virtual counseling center founded in 2016 by Dr. La'Courtney D. Setzer, a licensed mental health professional with over a decade of experience. The center supports teenagers, young adults, adults, couples, and families in managing trauma related to abuse, assault, and substance use.

Named in honor of Beatrice Delores Culbreath — a respected community leader from Hickory, North Carolina and the maternal grandmother of our founder — the center continues her legacy of compassion, wisdom, and service.

Our counseling team helps clients overcome challenges such as anxiety, depression, panic, low self-esteem, shame, and trauma by building emotional skills, confidence, self-awareness, and healthy boundaries. Couples and family counseling also focuses on improving communication, trust, intimacy, and relationship healing through a supportive, teamwork-based approach.

In January 2026, the practice expanded into Ase Healing Center (Delores Place). It remains committed to serving underserved communities alongside the professionals who serve on our Executive Board, collaborating with community stakeholders in religious, immigration, spiritual, and indigenous realms across the country.
