Hello all! My name is Nakeisha McGee and I am a Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I have been in the field of mental health and substance abuse treatment, in theory or in practice, since 2005. I have managed school and community based programming and provided services for individuals, children, teens, those who have experienced varying types of trauma and those suffering from varying addictions both in patient and outpatient care. I also counsel couples and have been trained in the Prepare and Enrichment assessment in which I served as an Enrichment Feedback Coach.
I have utilized several different treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused CBT, Rational Emotive Therapy. The one I use most for couples therapy is Intersubjective Therapy, in which the client is the broken relationship and is the focus of treatment. Generally speaking, I have a laid back approach to therapy where my goal is to build a working relationship with you to see issues from your point of view. This is one of the best ways to guide you to your own version of healing and eliminates me "telling you what to do."
I look forward to working with and helping you along your journey to your next level of greatness. Let's change your world, one session at a time. :-)

Nakeisha has given me the most valuable gift I’ve ever gotten - permission to be me, and the strength & empowerment to figure out what I want “me” to be.

Nakeisha is superb! She breaks down her sessions in bite size, doable pieces so that you never feel overwhelmed or stupid. I like the fact that she doesn't enable me but gently guides me and helps me recognize behaviors that have stemmed from childhood trauma. She is open-minded, considerate, and makes me feel comfortable to share anything. I count down the time between sessions. I think of her like a gas station; when I am low on fuel, she has a way of refueling me with her words of encouragement. I've seen progress within myself, thanks to Nakeisha.

This counselor is amazing. She continues to check up on me even when I feel like I don't particularly need counseling. She really cares and I can tell that she loves her job and what she's doing. I'm glad I found therapist that makes me feel safe and cared for. I dont know if I would have ever found that where I'm located out in town.

Nakeisha listened to everything I had to say in a non judgemental manner whilst also offering me advice on how to restructure negative thought patterns whilst simultaneously helping me deal with other struggles I was having with relationships. I’ve had CBT before but I found that Nakeisha was more helpful as she explained to me the mechanisms behind why I think in certain ways due to my anxiety.
