Destiny York

My name is Destiny York and I earned my Bachelors of Science Degree at Mississippi College in Psychology and continued to earn my Masters of Science degree at Walden University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Mississippi. I have worked in Mental Health Services for six years primarily focused on justice involved individuals and substance abuse.

​

I believe in helping others through growth and personal development focusing on their goals and meeting them where they are to provide that support. No matter the race, religion, ethnicity, or sexual orientation, my objective is to provide a safe and welcome environment for the client to feel heard as they navigate through the challenges of life events. I do provide LGBTQ+ affirming services.

I am prepared to support clients dealing with depression, anxiety, grief or loss, trauma, addiction, and life transitions. The services provided include clinical assessments where I am able to provide the client and referral source, a recommendation for the level of care, and potential diagnosis based on an initial intake assessment. I am also able to provide services based on availability for Anger Management Groups, Parenting Groups, Relapse Prevention Groups, and Individual Therapy and Family Therapy sessions.

My approach is integrative and personalized. I draw from CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and psychodynamic therapy to support your unique goals. I focus on creating a safe, collaborative space where we can explore challenges and build tools for lasting growth and well-being.

Clients can expect to gain insight, practical tools, and emotional support to navigate life’s challenges. Sessions often focus on building self-awareness, developing coping strategies, and fostering meaningful change aligned with your values and goals.
