Hello! I am Shakeyla, a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina, North Carolina. and Florida. I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and the owner of The Flourishing Place. I specialize in helping teens and adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and self-esteem challenges. My empathetic and collaborative approach empowers clients to heal, set boundaries, and flourish in every aspect of their lives.
In our first session, we’ll create a warm and supportive environment where you can share your story at your own pace. Together, we’ll explore your concerns and goals, answer any questions, and begin crafting a personalized plan to guide your healing and growth.
My greatest strength as a provider is creating a safe, compassionate space, fostering collaboration, and tailoring therapy to each client's unique needs. I blend evidence-based techniques with empathy and empowerment to guide clients toward healing and personal growth.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use CBT to help clients identify negative thought patterns, reframe them into healthier perspectives, and develop behaviors that align with their values, fostering personal growth and emotional well-being.
Cognitive Processing (CPT)
I use CPT to help clients address trauma by identifying and challenging unhelpful beliefs, shifting perspectives, and fostering healthier thought patterns to promote healing and resilience.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I use person-centered therapy to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard, valued, and empowering clients to explore their thoughts and emotions and reach their full potential.
Trauma Informed Care
I use trauma informed care by fostering a safe, supportive environment, recognizing the impact of trauma, and empowering clients with compassionate, strength-based strategies for healing and growth.
