Hello, I am Shaqueena. Are you tired of being tired? Do you feel that no one understands your situation or that no one can relate? Are you unsure if therapy is right for you? If you are here, then that means that you are ready and motivated to make some changes in your life. Seeking help can sometimes be tough, which is why I believe that we all experience things in our life that goes beyond our ability to cope and when that happens we need a little more assistance. As a licensed professional counselor, my ultimate goal is to first normalize seeking assistance by decreasing the stigma on mental health. In doing so, my goal is to assist individuals in their healing process, to empower individuals to become the best version of themselves and to help individuals to see that life is completely what you make it. My preference for treatment is to utilize a trauma-informed approach in addition to CBT, EMDR and Choice/Reality Therapy.

Living life is an ever changing process, which can be difficult to navigate on your own. My approach is interactive & compassionate. I counsel those facing challenges such as addiction, depression, anxiety, unresolved grief/loss, relationship issues, anger management, & sexual identity. Peace of Mind Counseling is a safe place for honesty & openness towards identifying & achieving your goals. Therapy is a collaborative effort. My approach is to help you understand your problems, teaching effective solutions, & coping strategies to assist & enable you in developing the most fulfilling & enriching life of your dreams. I’m committed to your personal growth and happiness by exploring being your authentic self, including ways to improve communication skills to enable you to be able to engage in hard conversations, improve your connection with the important people in your life, and to ensure that you can self-regulate your emotions. With compassion and honesty, I aim to encourage your hopes and dreams to come to fruition. Let's Do It!

I am an eclectic therapist who collaborates with you to identify the needs to elevate your life. I empower, encourage and challenge you to reach your fullest potential. It is important to me that you believe you have the right to be fully present and autonomous in your life. Learning to cope with life’s challenges is what I strive to support you with.
