LPCC, 12 years of experience
Hello, I’m Demetria Agharese, and as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I’m dedicated to helping you find healing, empowerment, and peace of mind. Supporting others has always been at the heart of who I am, and my practice is built on empathy, compassion, and a deep commitment to your well-being. In our work together, you’ll find a safe, supportive space where your voice is heard, your story matters, and you can begin to heal, grow, and thrive.
Your first session is all about you. We’ll focus on creating a safe, comfortable space where you feel heard and supported. I’ll take the time to understand your story, what’s been weighing on you, and what you hope to gain from therapy. Together, we’ll begin clarifying your goals and laying the groundwork for the changes you want to see. From the very start, I see our work as a partnership—you bring your experiences, and I bring tools and guidance. My role is to walk alongside you as an ally, helping you move toward healing, growth, and the life you want to create. You don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. Healing, growth, and empowerment are within your reach, and I’m here to help you take that first step. Reach out today to start your journey toward a brighter, more peaceful future.
What clients often tell me is that they feel truly heard in our sessions. My greatest strength lies in listening with empathy and tuning in to the deeper meaning behind your story. I believe therapy doesn’t end when the session does—that’s why I provide practical tools and personalized homework to support your growth between our meetings. Together, we’ll set meaningful goals and move toward them at a pace that feels right for you. My style is both compassionate and practical, offering encouragement, guidance, and strategies to help you build resilience and lasting emotional strength. You won’t be alone on this journey—I’ll be right by your side every step of the way.
I support people who feel burdened by abandonment wounds, anxiety, depression, obsessive thoughts, phobias, or unresolved relationship pain. My work focuses on helping you heal the parts of yourself that still hurt, release the weight of the past, and move forward with greater clarity and strength. Together, we’ll work through the obstacles keeping you stuck so you can rediscover your purpose, build lasting confidence, and reconnect with the resilient, empowered version of yourself that’s always been within you.
Are worries, fears, or obsessive thoughts keeping you stuck? I specialize in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), one of the most effective treatments for OCD, anxiety, and phobias. In our work together, you’ll learn how to face what feels overwhelming in a safe and supportive way. The goal isn’t just to manage symptoms—it’s to help you reclaim your freedom, confidence, and peace of mind.
Sometimes our thoughts can feel like they’re running the show. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps you step back, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and build new ways of seeing yourself and the world. With this proven approach, clients often find relief from stress, anxiety, and depression while gaining practical tools they can use every day. It’s about creating real change that lasts, not just quick fixes.
At the heart of my work is Person-Centered Therapy—a belief that true healing happens when you feel fully seen and supported. I’ll meet you exactly where you are, without judgment, and together we’ll create a space where you can explore, grow, and move toward the life you want. My role is to help you uncover your strengths, discover solutions that fit your values, and feel empowered to create lasting change.
Life can bring pain, stress, and uncertainty—but struggling against those experiences often makes them feel heavier. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps you learn how to accept difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them control your life. Instead of fighting your mind, you’ll discover how to focus on what truly matters to you and take steps toward living in alignment with your values.

Really listened to what I was saying and asked follow-up questions to better understand. She really took the time to get to the bottom of things and even listened to me ramble without harshly redirecting me. I have never had a therapist be so thorough in the first session and have a great plan to help me succeed.

Dementia is a kind woman who I feel like I can connect with. She listens to my needs and doesn’t make me feel judged. I love that she challenges me to be better and helps create solutions to my problems. I highly suggest working with her.
