Great to meet you!

Hi There! Are you ready to Exhale? I am Ekinia Dillard-Cole a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 22 years of experience in social and mental wellness services. I have a very diverse client background working with adults, children, and families struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief. I also have expertise with helping clients resolve relational, work related, and complex life issues as well as adapt to various medical diagnoses.

My approach to therapy

My vision for care is to utilize a holistic approach to tap into the skills that you already possess to manifest inner healing. I cannot heal or fix you, but by using researched based therapeutic services, we can collectively develop and implement strategies and goals that give you the autonomy to heal and walk in freedom. My approach is strength based and open discussion, and you have the right to exhale anything you want in a safe space and nonjudgmental zone...It’s all about YOU!

What you can expect from me

By utilizing counseling modalities such as, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Solution Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, I will work toward providing you the essentials you need to create a better you. Don’t wait to exhale, EXHALE with EKINIA. I look forward to supporting you through this journey.
