Mental Wellness Specialties: GriefDepressionCoping with life changes
25 years offering treatment
Hello, Welcome to the Better Help Community. My name is Antoinette, and I am a licensed professional counselor in Colorado, Georgia, Kentucky, Missouri, Kansas, South Dakota, and Virginia. I have been working in the mental health field for over 20 years. I have worked with individuals experiencing a variety of issues including grief and loss, depression, anxiety, marital concerns, women issues, workplace stressors, family conflict, and issues related to military families. I would describe my approach as goal-oriented, and client-centered. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). Both modalities are hands-on, practical approaches to problem-solving. CBT treatment usually involves efforts to change thinking patterns and or behaviors. The goals are to change patterns of thinking or behavior that are behind difficult situations, and so change the way one feels. This helps people identify unhelpful ways of thinking as they learn better ways of coping with life's stressors. It would be my privilege to become a partner in your journey while helping you to figure out your goals. I will provide a supportive and understanding environment that offers a clear direction with specific strategies to assist with your current stressors. I look forward to helping/serving you!

3 years offering treatment
I am licensed in North Carolina and South Dakota, with over three years of experience working as a clinical mental health therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns, such as anxiety disorders, adjustment disorders, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, self-esteem and body image, life changes, stress management, difficulty with relationships, self-harm, suicidal ideation, boundary setting, and disruptive, impulse-control, conduct disorders, and more. My therapy style is warm, open-minded, client-centered, and collaborative. I believe therapy is most effective when it's a shared journey—we will work together to identify solutions that align with your values and goals. If one path doesn’t feel right, we’ll continue exploring until we find what does. I draw from several evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), mindfulness therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I will, of course, tailor our sessions and your treatment plan to best meet your unique needs. Creating a safe, inclusive, and non-judgmental space is a top priority for me. I strive to ensure that every client feels heard, respected, and supported throughout their therapeutic journey. It takes courage to take the first steps towards change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey! I look forward to working with you!
