Takojia Walters

Hello, my name is Takojia pronounced ( TaKoya). Helping others to heal has always been a passion of mine. My approach as a therapist is to avoid using the same methods or treatments for every client. Individuals may have the same diagnosis but require different methods to maintain their quality of life. I believe that it's important for clients to feel safe to express whatever their concerns may be. Hence, the company's name Calming Introspective Counseling, I help people find clarity, healing, and a greater sense of ease in daily life.

I have more than 10 years of experience serving as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I've worked over 15 years of working with children and adolescents in various environments. I am also a certified Family Trauma Focused clinician. I have worked in-home with families and children provided therapy services. schools, tele-health as well as office locations.

My desire to help clients heal what hurts, discover new coping techniques, build a better version of self, and learn how to function daily with mental illness through providing cognitive behavior techniques and other behavioral modalities that are appropriate for the client.

Creating a safe non judgement environment is my priority. My focus is to build rapport with clients and help clients identify their strengths and triggers that affect their lives. My goal is to help clients learn how to effectively communicate, muscle relaxation skills, emotional regulation, manage anxiety and improve self-esteem and positive coping skills.
