Hello, my name is Shakera, a masters-leveled Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio. I'd first like to applaud you for taking that first step in making a positive change. Seeking help can be hard! I believe in person-centered care! That means I believe you are the expert at your experience and together you and I will collaborate on how to address your concerns using your expertise and mine! I have been a counselor for the past four years but have been working in the mental health field for over fourteen years! These experiences have allowed me to have an open-mind and eclectic approaches to meeting your needs. I have experience working with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, OCD, grief, divorce, anger, and more. The treatment modalities that I use in therapy primarily draw from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical-Behavioral Therapy, Solution- Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). What does this mean for you??! These methods are backed by empirical research, meaning these approaches are highly effective and you are more likely than not to experience relief from symptoms sooner. I have a very laid-back and gentle therapy style but will challenge you to be your best self! I truly believe in "planting seeds" of growth and guiding you along the way by providing education and helpful tools to cope. I also specialize in providing affirming care for persons of color, specifically Black Americans who seek to be heard and validated in their unique experiences navigating an unjust world. I likely will NOT be a good fit for you as a provider if you are not affirming of people of color, are discriminant against various cultures, races, and religions, or demonstrate any hatred toward individual differences. I look forward to meeting you and providing transformative care that will allow you to attract all of the abundance, love, and fulfillment that you so very much deserve! ADDITIONALLY: SONDERMIND DOES NOT TAKE MEDICAID! So even though the site will allow you to sign up and be seen, after the first appointment I will not be able to submit claims for you. This creates a lot of confusion and frustration for you. So, to avoid this, I'd highly encourage Medicaid clients to seek services outside of this platform. My apologies in advance for the inconvenience. This is an issue we are trying to address so that everyone can be seen.
