I offer online counseling to help adults recover from childhood wounds. These issues can present as depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and interpersonal challenges. I approach counseling as an opportunity to understand your story and help you develop a path to healing. It's human nature to want healthy relationships, meaningful work and activities you enjoy, to have a good quality of life. If you're experiencing ineffective communication skills, career dissatisfaction, parenting challenges, family/relationship stress or feelings overwhelm, I would be glad to help you improve upon these problems. I utilize the following models of treatment depending on the needs of each individual: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy and Mindfulness Interventions. I studied psychology at the University of Georgia, obtaining a B.A. in psychology in 1998. Later in my career, I obtained a Master of Social Work from Valdosta State University in 2011. I became fully licensed in 2015. I understand that life can throw you. some curve balls. My desire to help others improve their quality of life led to a career spanning twenty years.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In first session, I'll identify the purpose of therapy and what you can expect. We'll discuss expectations and explore your needs and goals. It's important to understand that therapy is an active process and strategies need to be practiced in between sessions. Also be aware that progress is not linear but you can re-engage to improve your quality of life.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

Together we will use the following models of treatment to improve your emotional & mental health: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy and Mindfulness Interventions. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and Mindfulness Interventions. It's beneficial to reinforce our therapy sessions with workbooks, self-help books, movement/exercise, journaling and mindfulness activities to truly actualize the change you want in your life.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My biggest strength is that I believe in our own, unique ability to heal. I've supported people on their journeys for twenty-three years and know for a fact, it can be done. The right therapist feels like a supportive accountability partner. Progress happens when you take action consistently. You do not have to be stuck in your past. Change can happen.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I'm best positioned to treat clients that are motivated for change. If you're open to understanding yourself and others, in a realistic yet compassionate way I'm the therapist for you.

I can feel her honesty about my situation. She really listens and knows what im saying as I describe to her what im feeling. She gets it from my point of view. And is straight forward and honest with me about how to handle or not handle any issue.

I was extremely hesitant to try therapy (very keep to myself type), but after just one session, I knew Nakeya was the person for me. Her energy speaks for itself, and I look forward to the growth that is to come!
