Greetings! My name is Tamela and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), Clinical Certified Mental Health Counselor (CCMHC) and Sexuality Educator. I received my Masters from Troy University in Alabama. I assist adults who are looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation, seeking enlightenment with sexual health issues or you're just ready to move in a new direction in their life. I will do my best help you achieve your mental health goals on this journey we call life.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In the first mental health therapy session, clients will encounter a welcoming atmosphere fostering trust and rapport. I will conduct an initial assessment, exploring the client's history, concerns, and goals collaboratively. Together, we will set clear treatment objectives, ensuring a focused therapeutic approach. Throughout, the client's thoughts and emotions are explored in a non-judgmental space. Expectations for future sessions, including homework assignments, are established, fostering collaboration and accountability.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I'll be your mental health advocate, empowering you with coping skills and education to navigate challenges effectively.
