Shakia Wyche

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and trauma-informed professional with more than 15 years of experience supporting individuals and families through trauma, crisis, life transitions, and emotional challenges. I provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, respected, and supported.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, strengths-based, and practical. Using evidence-informed approaches, I help clients develop healthy coping skills, navigate difficult experiences, strengthen relationships, and work toward meaningful goals. You are the expert on your own life, and my role is to support you along the way

My approach is warm, supportive, and person centered. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. Together, we’ll build on your strengths, develop practical coping tools, and work toward goals that matter to you. I use an integrative approach that may include CBT, DBT-informed skills, solution-focused therapy, person-centered therapy, and EMDR-informed trauma work.

My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel comfortable sharing only what you are ready to share. The first session is not about having to tell your entire story at once. It is an opportunity for us to begin building trust, determine whether we are a good fit, and create a plan that feels helpful and personalized to you. This reflects the common purpose of an initial therapy appointment: introductions, informed-consent and confidentiality discussion, learning what brings the client to therapy, and beginning collaborative goal-setting
