Hello, and welcome. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who is passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges and discover their strengths. I believe everyone deserves a safe, supportive space where they can feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I strive to build a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust, respect, and open communication. Whether you are facing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, self-esteem challenges, or a major life transition, I am committed to helping you develop practical skills, gain insight, and create meaningful change that supports your overall well-being and personal growth.

First session

In our first session, you can expect a supportive and relaxed conversation focused on understanding your concerns, experiences, and goals. I will ask questions to learn more about what has brought you to therapy and what changes you would like to see in your life. We will work together to identify your strengths, discuss treatment goals, and develop a plan that supports your growth and well-being. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered.

Strengths

My commitment is to create a safe, supportive, and empowering therapeutic environment. I believe clients are the experts on their own lives. I work collaboratively with them to identify strengths, overcome challenges, and achieve their goals. I combine evidence-based approaches with genuine empathy, practical problem-solving, and a focus on helping clients create meaningful change both in and outside of therapy.

Ideal clients

work with adolescents and adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, and challenges with self-esteem. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed by life's responsibilities and are seeking practical strategies to manage their emotions, improve their relationships, and build confidence. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel empowered to explore their concerns, develop effective coping skills, and achieve their personal goals.

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps people recognize how their thoughts can affect their emotions and actions. During our sessions, we'll work together to identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck and develop healthier ways of thinking and responding to life's challenges. I focus on practical tools and strategies that clients can use in their everyday lives to reduce stress, improve relationships, increase confidence, and create meaningful change.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

I believe clients already possess many of the strengths needed to overcome challenges. Through a solution-focused approach, I help clients discover those strengths, increase confidence, and develop actionable steps toward creating the life they want.

Person-centered (Rogerian)

I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where clients can openly share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I believe that feeling heard, understood, and accepted is an important part of the healing process.

I had a great session with Ms. Scott. I really felt like I was sitting with a friend who wanted to help me deal with some life issues. She's real, down to earth, fun and easy to talk to. I think I'm going to have great results working with Ms. Scott. She's awesome.

Tameka is great! I’ve had about 5 sessions with her now and I’m already making a lot of progress with myself. Self-love is at the top of things to work on right now and she helps me see what I don’t see in myself by having me do the work in and out of our sessions. Definitely recommend her!!

I had my first session with Tameka and I already feel comfortable to continue with her! She is very nice, knowledgeable, listens well, and already calls me out on things (respectfully) which is what I need! By the end of the session, she had 3 main goals for us to begin working on and I completely agreed with them.
