”A great beginning is sometimes at the point of what you thought would be the end of everything.” – Dodinsky Forty years of experience in the counseling profession and several decades more of life have helped me to see how the most difficult of times can lead to a positive and amazing transformation. “For just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly.- Author Unknown”. It is my desire to support people during these struggles to become the best person that they are intended to be. I have assisted people experiencing a wide range of mental health and life issues from very diverse racial, cultural, life stages, educational and socioeconomic backgrounds. My goal is to assist you through the struggle in developing the resiliency skills you need to transform into your best self. Areas of specialty: Adolescent/Child Services, Anger Management, Anxiety Disorders, Attention Deficit Disorder, Bereavement-Grief Counseling, Child Abuse, Christian Counseling, Co-morbidity, Codependency Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Crisis Intervention, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Dissociative Disorder, Forensic related issues, Group Therapy, Health-Disabilities, Intimate Partner Violence, Life Management Counseling, Mood Disorders, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Parenting Issues, Personality Disorders, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Psychotic Disorders, Sexual-Physical Abuse, Stress Management
In our first session we will spend some time in allowing you to get to know about my background and approach. Secondly we will spend time gathering information on you in order to provide a thorough assessment to enable an individually tailored approach. You will be given some tools to take away for use until our next session.
I believe my biggest strength is the ability to relate to people of all ages, races, ethnicities, religions and backgrounds. Each of those things contribute to who you are as an individual and it is important to examine those contributions. Despite differences I believe most of us have some very strong commonalities.
I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger management concerns, and trauma. My background also includes supporting survivors of sexual and physical abuse and providing specialized forensic mental health services such as domestic violence, sexual offender treatment, and sexual addiction work. I aim to create a safe, structured, and supportive space where clients can address challenges, build healthier coping skills, and move toward meaningful change.
I have had extensive experience with CBT. Changing the way we think about situations can result in significant mood improvement.
I believe it is important to provide education on the neuro/biological aspects that impact mood and emotions as well as providing techniques for management.

I can’t thank her enough for giving me the hope I need to have the life I want. She was very easy to talk to. So glad I was able to meet and talk with her!

I am so happy with my experience with Jarvia Fishell. She is warm, authentic, and open-minded and is helping me to work through things that have been seriously affecting my mental and physical health since I was a child. Her suggestions are very thoughtful and easy to follow and I'm in a much better mental place than I was before we started our sessions. together.
