Hello there! I'm Arkila J. Covington, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and groups grow personally and emotionally. With a diverse educational background and extensive experience, I've been fortunate to guide countless clients on their journeys, overcoming obstacles, achieving goals, and adopting practical behavior modifications that improve their personal and professional lives. From the St. Louis, MO Housing Projects, I learned ambition, tenacity, and determination. Despite facing adversity, I excelled academically and pursued higher education alongside my siblings. With dual master's degrees in Sociology/Criminal Justice and Counseling Psychology, plus a bachelor's degree in Psychology, my educational background enriches my skills in my practice. With roles such as Membership Marketing Manager and Wraparound Facilitator, I understand human behavior and societal dynamics. My strengths lie in developing emotional intelligence and anger management skills. I specialize in trauma and support parents in compassionate parenting. Your thoughts and emotions are safe with me; I create a non-judgmental space. My integrative approach draws from various methods to meet your needs. Building a solid therapeutic alliance is my priority. I thrive when working with individuals who are open to incorporating the Word of God as a tool to address mental health challenges. Together, we'll explore new techniques through assignments, role-play, and experimental therapy. Let's work together and empower you to overcome any hurdles and achieve the fulfilling life you deserve!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our initial session together, we'll embark on a comprehensive exploration of your therapeutic needs and expectations. I'll take the time to share details about my professional experience and therapeutic approach, ensuring that you have a clear understanding of how we can work together. We'll also discuss the importance of confidentiality and the unique aspects of virtual therapy, acknowledging any concerns or questions you may have. This first meeting is crucial in establishing a strong sense of trust and open dialogue, which I truly value. Throughout our interactions, your comfort and well-being are my utmost priority.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have a knack for helping people develop emotional intelligence and manage their anger effectively. I've worked with many individuals who have experienced trauma and have supported parents on their journey to compassionate parenting. Each person is unique, and my therapy space is a safe, judgment-free zone where you can explore your feelings freely. My therapeutic approach is like a smoothie—I blend different methods to create something delicious just for you. The journey to self-discovery and growth can be challenging, but it’s also thrilling. Ready to take that leap? I'm right here, ready to support, guide, and laugh with you. Let's embark on this journey together and help you lead a life brimming with fulfillment!
