Tamekia Powell, LCMHC, LCPC
About me
It is my belief that every individual is a unique and a complex being, therefore the theoretical approach taken will be based on your unique individual needs. A collaborative treatment and/or goals plan is created based on the information you provide and my assessment of your emotional, mental, physical, social, spiritual, economic, and career characteristics. I will need your continual input as we identify issues to be addressed within the counseling session. Open and honest communication between counselor and client is imperative to a successful therapeutic relationship.

Additional areas of focus: Addictions, LGBT, Grief, Parenting issues, Anger management, Self esteem, Bipolar disorder, Coping with life changes, Coaching, ADHD

Tamekia is the bomb.com. Tamekia is the bees knees. Tamekia is the cat's meow. She makes me feel safe, seen, and understood. She masterfully balances truth with humor. She is also encouraging and gives me bite-sized tasks to focus on in between sessions. Her authenticity is amazing and gives me permission to show as myself. She's the practitioner I've seeking for a long time and I'm very grateful for this therapeutic relationship.

Tamekia is very easy to talk to and is great at anticipating my needs and understanding who I am. I like that we add humor into our conversations. I always feel empowered after talking to her as well to go tackle my insecurities but also to get out of my head. I would highly recommend her!

Tamekia is an excellent therapist! I was connected with Tamekia at a breaking point in my life. I participated in therapy for mental health years ago that had a semi-positive outcome. However, that avenue involved prescribed medication that had a negative physical impact on my body. I appreciate the process and the communication skills by which I engage with Tamekia. Which has fostered an increase in optimistic outlook with tools to continue on my mental health journey for absolute health and wellness. In my sessions with Tamekia, any anxiety I would normally feel in discussing obstacles or roadblocks in my life causing feelings of inadequacy or failure, therefore engaging in avoidance, diminish. I am still on a long journey, but understanding to just make it through my day and doing only what I can do, has saved my life and sanity.
I have already referred her and BetterHelp to my friends and family.
