A Bit About Me
Greetings, My name is Nakia. I am dedicated to making a positive impact in the field of mental health and well-being. I am fueled by a genuine desire to help people navigate life's challenges, discover their inner strength, and achieve personal growth. My approach is grounded in empathy, aiming to provide you with a secure and supportive environment where you feel comfortable to explore your life's spaces, your thoughts, feelings, and aspirations.
I am known for my considerate, and motivating nature and am committed to providing non-judgmental support as clients explore their path to achieving optimal mental health. I want you to feel SURE (safe, understood, respected, and empowered).
My approach includes evidence-based therapies like person-centered, CBT, solution-focused, and motivational interviewing. All of which aim to empower you to gain understanding, and implement solutions as you take meaningful steps toward your goals.
Why did you decide to become a counselor?
I wanted to become a counselor because I find it gratifying to assist people in filtering who they are, what they have been through, and where they are going.
What type of clients are you most excited to work with?
I am excited to work with clients who are ready to process, sort through, and organize their “spaces”.
What's one thing you wish all clients knew?
I wish all clients to know that it's okay to ask for help and take time for themselves, seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Why did you choose to practice at Ashe Counseling & Coaching LLC
I chose Ashe because their ideals and mission aligned with my personal goals.
My top 3 feel good songs
I am inspired by other's around me. I find a lot of motivation in seeing other people living their lives unapologetically because it reassures me that there is no way one to live life and that happiness is most important.
