About me

My name is Ms. Rasheede Hicks, M.Ed., Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, C-Grief Counselor, Anger Management-Certified with 20+ years of Mental Health Experience. My background is prior military, single mother of 2 adult children, divorcee, and driven. I’m a passionate about learning treatment modalities, interventions, and ideas, motivations, etc. so that I may be more effective in my endeavor to help those seeking therapy.
What differentiates me as a provider? My experiences, past and present. My passion and drive. My tolerance and understanding. My ability to identify/discern what my clients are seeking and need. My overall care philosophy and objective for my clients is that:
Everyone has a hidden gift. My objective for my clients is to help them with building up their inner strength so that they may be able to identify their gift. Knowing that you have a gift and learning what to do with that gift is key to understanding your purpose in this world.
I find working with young adults, middle age adults, older adults, and those in between to be thoroughly rewarding. My experience as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor includes helping those in need of learning effective coping skills to deal with issues such as : problems in the workplace, relationship issues, educational stressors (anxiety), depression, women issues, relationship issues, and life changing dilemmas. I must add that I also enjoy teaching effective parenting skills and anger management skills.
My approach is holistic. If people have imbalances such as physical, emotional, or spiritual in their lives, it can negatively affect their overall well-being. I’m also a big believer in Mindfulness and the “Art of Focusing on the Here and Now” and learning how to move forward in your journey. It is my goal to meet my clients where they are in life and grow from there. Any therapeutic approach utilized is highly individualized for the unique needs of each of my clients. I am also trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Grief Counseling, and Anger Management.
