Hi, My name is Shequitta (Shuh qwee tuh) Lenoir, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Minnesota and Texas. I received my B.S. in psychology from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana, and my Masters in MFT from Argosy University in Eagan, Minnesota. As early as sixth grade, I have had the desire to help people and be a counselor. I have 13yrs of experience working in the mental health field providing therapy and skills to individuals with severe and persistent mental illness, as well as drug and alcohol addictions. I typically use Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and some Solution Focused techniques to support people in working through their concerns. I enjoy working with people in boosting their self esteem, confidence and awareness so that they can live the best life possible.

Over the last decade, I have supported clients through uncertainty, devastating loss, and unimaginable hardships. Taking each experience in stride through therapy, has created lasting change for clients, and for myself. Personally, I also have known deep loss, emotional suffering, and have moved through what seemed like unending darkness. Humbled by the journey, I offer a place for fellow travelers to reset, refocus, and forge a path forward with a new set of skills and understanding. To accumulate evidence-based counseling skills, I earned a Bachelors in Psychology and a Master's in Counseling from the University of Texas-San Antonio. Additionally, I hold a Master's in Business Administration from University of Texas- Rio Grande Valley. With a well rounded educational foundation, I am fluent in addressing challenges across various walks of life. Grief is a universal burden that we all must carry at some point in our lives. Just like any heavy load, things can quickly feel unbalanced, putting goals at risk, interrupting progress, or shutting you down all together. You are not alone, and this is not just "all in your head." Finding a soft place to land, where its safe to say what you are thinking and feeling, is important for healing and growth after life's traumas have touched your life. Therapy can be that place. I offer you a safe space, and provide you with compassion, validation, and education. Trauma is a complex set of symptoms that can make sense when we apply the best fitting lens for your personal situation. Anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other conditions can complicate coping, making it challenging to move forward with confidence. Your unique experiences are welcome here. Feeling lost with no one to turn to who understands can prolong personal suffering. Its time to face what is driving you towards unhealthy coping habits, toxic relationships, and situational conflict. When you are ready, I invite you to access your strengths through therapy.

Hello, my name is Buddy Duncan. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for well over twenty years. In my private practice I have worked with many individuals in crisis and transition. I began years ago working with those struggling with addiction issues. I then transitioned to several years working with those with severe medical issues and chronic pain. I have functioned as a Marriage Counselor in all of these years and specialized the last decade with grief and loss issues. I taught psychology in college for multiple years and served as an academic advisor to college students. My practice has been varied yet I have consistently practiced as a cognitive behavioral therapist who believes each person has the ability to make choices and decisions that can empower their lives to move in the direction of their choosing. My experience has allowed me to witness an abundance of people overcome complex challenges and move forward in a positive manner through talk therapy by offering healthy options in a safe non judgmental environment.
