Welcome! I’m Tamika of Life in Bloom. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Wedding Officiant. I’m here to help you navigate life's stressful relationships. In our talks, I refer to those stressors as “thorns.” Why thorns, you ask? Great question! Because even the most beautiful roses have some uncomfortable pieces. That doesn’t make them any less beautiful, valuable, or appreciated. I have been commissioned to help couples, families, friends, and any other relationship dynamic find their communication style, boundaries, and build trust. It is truly my joy and my personal life’s work. Therapy isn’t what we have traditionally seen on television or in film.

I am here to help you every step of the way. Life and all the hats you wear from day to day can be challenging. I encourage and empower you to unlock the power you have inside of you. I promise you it’s there! I also help you reflect on how far you have come in order to celebrate your victories with you - big or small. Kudos to you for seeking help! You are in a safe space. I look forward to working with you and watching you bloom.

Hi, I’m glad you’re here, I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 13 years of experience. I’m also a husband and a father of five, so I know life can be unpredictable. When something hits you that you weren’t ready for, it doesn’t mean you’re broken. It usually means you don’t have the right tools yet. I studied engineering and psychology, and it shapes how I work. I look for the patterns underneath a problem and what keeps you stuck. Then we build practical steps you can use in your daily life. I think of therapy as a workbench. We figure out what isn’t working and try new things together. I use CBT, DBT, ACT, and EMDR, depending on what fits you best. I work with adults dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, and major life changes. I especially enjoy working with men, active duty military, veterans, and first responders. I also see couples that want to improve communication and I enjoy helping with everything beyond that too: rebuilding trust, reconnecting, working through major life changes, and handling the stress that military, first responder, and family life put on a relationship. You don’t need to have everything figured out to start. Reach out and we’ll talk about what’s going on and whether I’m a good fit.

Many of my clients struggle with emotional intensity, black-and-white thinking, or feeling pulled between extremes while trying to make sense of themselves and their experiences. That’s why I incorporate behavioral and specialized approaches, including Brainspotting, Ketamine Assisted psychotherapy, creative expressive play, and counterintuitive skills, all tailored to fit your needs. So if you’re tired of basic coping, ready to understand your patterns, and open to doing deeper, active work, this space was created for you. Let me help you find the power of the grey area.

Hi! I am Tomeka L Howell, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing psychotherapy from the state of Georgia. My goal is to walk alongside you as you bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be. I provide a supportive space to increase self-awareness, navigate challenges with compassion, and strengthen your ability to communicate with clarity and insight. Drawing from evidence-based interventions, I tailor our work together to support growth, healing, and meaningful change.

Greetings. My name is Lekisha Glenn. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) with a deep commitment to supporting individuals and families through life’s most challenging moments. My passion for helping others began as a teenager while volunteering with children in foster care, and has since evolved into over a decade of dedicated service across various settings. I have extensive experience working with children, teens, young adults, and families, particularly those facing difficulties with behavior, focus, emotional regulation, and adjustment. I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, anger management, autism spectrum disorder, depression, trauma, grief, domestic violence, DMDD, and other adjustment-related issues. I have a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and integrate both my personal resilience as a trauma survivor and clinical expertise to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental therapeutic environment. Clients describe me as warm, relatable, and highly supportive—someone who truly meets you where you are. My therapeutic approach is integrative and client-centered, drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Art Therapy, and Talk Therapy. I believe in helping clients identify root causes and build practical tools for emotional well-being and personal growth. With a strong background in working with children and adolescents who struggle with discipline, anger, attention, anxiety, trauma, and depression, I feel that I have a natural ability to connect and guide young clients in a way that fosters trust, empowerment, and change. “It’s not the load that breaks you down, it’s the way that you carry it.” I am ready to walk beside you on your journey toward healing. If you are prepared to do the work and seek a safe, supportive space to grow, transform, and thrive—schedule an appointment with me today.

Hi! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Georgia and also licensed to practice in South Carolina. I bring over 14 years of experience in the field of social work, with the past eight years focused on direct clinical practice. Throughout my career, I’ve supported individuals facing a wide range of emotional and life challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions. My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I believe in creating a safe, supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward meaningful change.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor, Master Addiction Counselor, and Certified Hypnotherapist dedicated to helping individuals break free from limiting patterns and reconnect with their authentic selves. My approach blends traditional psychotherapy with hypnotherapy, mindfulness, energy psychology, and trauma-informed care. I believe true healing happens when the mind, body, and spirit align—and therapy becomes a space where insight turns into transformation. I’m passionate about supporting those who feel disconnected, emotionally blocked, or caught between who they were and who they’re becoming. My role is to hold space for your evolution—to help you remember who you truly are and step into the life waiting for you.
