Hi there, I'm YaKesha!

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I am passionate about helping clients discover their strengths, heal from past trauma, and build the skills needed to achieve lasting mental and emotional wellness. My own journey of persevering through adversity led me to this very path of dedicating my life to supporting others on their own journey.

My focus

Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, or simply seeking personal growth, I am committed to meeting you where you are. Together, we will work to identify your strengths, overcome barriers, and create a personalized path toward better health and self.

My approach

My counseling approach is rooted in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and trauma-informed care. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them understand how thoughts drive emotions and behaviors while teaching practical coping strategies to manage thoughts more effectively.
