Hello! My name is Shamika Milliken, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience in social work and counseling. My background includes extensive work in behavioral health, case management, hospice care, and individual counseling. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from Elizabeth City State University and my Master of Social Work degree from the University of New England.
My focus is on you and your potential. I view each client as a unique individual and tailor my approach to meet your specific needs and goals. I utilize evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), interpersonal, and psychodynamic techniques to help you achieve meaningful progress. I am deeply dedicated and passionate about my work as a therapist and feel truly grateful for the opportunity to help individuals discover their strengths, build resilience, and develop skills to navigate life’s unpredictable challenges.
My work is grounded in honesty, acceptance, attunement, and collaboration. I strive to create a supportive environment that helps clients explore their strengths, adaptability, and resilience. My clinical experience includes working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, health-related concerns, self-esteem issues, ADHD, adjustment disorders, and other life transitions.
