She has worked with people in a broad range of areas, including anxiety, depression, substance use, parent-child relationships, self-esteem, decision-making issues, and body image issues.

Being a therapist is my first career. I studied psychology with a minor in Spanish for my bachelor's degree and have a master's degree in mental health counseling (which led to me becoming a licensed mental health counselor). There are many reasons I am well-suited to be a therapist but to begin, I am nonjudgmental, caring, empathetic, and open. I have worked in a variety of areas, including private practice, residential treatment centers with adults and teens, and specialized therapeutic foster care with children. I have also worked with everyone from infants and toddlers to seniors. These various settings help me take a holistic approach when working with my clients.

Do you sometimes feel stuck with little to no options in dealing with challenging situations? Do you tend to react by fighting, fleeing, shutting down, or using mind-altering substances when you feel emotional distress? And soon after experience negative self-talk about the way you handled the situation? If you relate to this, I would love to teach you the reason humans tend to repeat patterns and explore alternative ways to find solutions.

Life comes with many obstacles. The goal is to enhance one’s coping skills by focusing on one’s strengths and reflect on our emotions. We cannot change certain life events or people’s behaviors however, we can work on our social emotional intelligence and strengthen our self-esteem as part of life’s journey. There are no quick fixes to therapy as it is a process.

My name is Sarah Harris, Licensed Clinical Social Work and I began my journey in this field since 2017. As a Therapist, I am a systemic thinker by meeting my clients where they're at. It causes more frustration and stress by creating assumptions and judgment so I approach my clients with the mindset of: Life is a journey, but no one path fits us all. Let me hear about the season of life you're in in this moment. I use various therapies and techniques such as Narrative therapy, Solution focused brief therapy, Motivational interviewing, and Mindfulness techniques to help my clients.

What do you want to change in your life?
Hi, my name is Ancquanetta McKinney-Hankerson and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (L.M.H.C). I have experience working with individuals dealing with emotional, cognitive, and substance difficulties. I have collaboratively worked on ways to help them manage their symptoms and maintain some type of balance in their lives. I have also done work in individual, family, and group therapy sessions in inpatient and outpatient psychiatric/substance programs. I have aided individuals in the process of working on ways to piece their life back together so they can get back to the person they recognize. Helping individuals motivate themselves to an improved view of who they are and the world around them can be a difficult, tedious process, but I am willing to help guide the way through to a higher level of self-fulfillment. I have experience working with clients on anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, teen topics, and self-esteem issues.
It's a big step to seek help when you are used to certain comfortable behaviors/actions. I applaud you for taking this next step in wanting to make a change that can lead to a more happier and fulfilling life for you. I look forward to working with you. I am ready whenever you are!!

Hi, I am so glad you have decided to take a step in healing from your past.
I specialize in working with people who grew up in families where there was some type of instability or turmoil. This could have been from addiction, mental health, abuse, neglect, anger, poverty, foster care placement, religious trauma or anything that caused some form of trauma. Oftentimes times those who grew up in this type of situation feel responsible for it or that somehow they should have fixed it.

Hi there! Have you been feeling overwhelmed lately? Has life piled on stressors due to overwhelming changes around you? Are you struggling to function and the past keeps replaying over and over? Making the first step to start therapy can be hard. It takes a great deal of strength, vulnerability and courage to get help. My first priority is providing a private, comfortable and compassionate environment where you feel at ease opening up.
