Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Whyketha, a licensed professional counselor who believes therapy should feel safe, supportive, and real. I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, life stress, grief, relationship challenges, and major transitions. My style is warm, direct, and collaborative.

My approach to therapy

I use practical, evidence-based tools while also helping you explore deeper patterns that may be keeping you stuck. I believe in meeting you where you are and building on your strengths. Therapy with me is a partnership, we work together toward meaningful change.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is about getting to know you. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you in, what you’d like to work on, and what support looks like for you. You can expect a welcoming space where you feel heard, not judged.
