I’m Markita Couch, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who supports adults as they navigate life’s challenges. I have experience providing counseling in school, residential, and community settings, helping clients work through stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and major life transitions.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, supportive, and grounded in trauma-informed care. I help clients build practical coping skills while also exploring the deeper patterns that shape their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I draw from CBT, strengths-based practices, and solution-focused techniques to create a plan that fits each person’s needs. I believe in meeting clients where they are, honoring their lived experiences, and creating a space where they feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow.
In our first session, you can expect a calm, open, and judgement free space conversation where we get to know each other. I’ll ask questions about what brought you to therapy, what you’ve been experiencing, and what you hope to change or understand. We’ll talk through your goals together and figure out what support might be the best fit. My focus is on helping you feel comfortable, heard, and confident about the next steps in your therapeutic journey.
