You want to accept & love yourself, but deep down you feel stuck in a cycle of anxiety & self-criticism. You’re tired of being your own worst critic. You beat yourself up for mistakes that you wouldn’t think twice about if someone else made them. You’re able to extend compassion to others, why is it so hard to extend compassion to yourself? You lie awake in bed worrying, haunted by your inner-critic, thinking about the past, and wondering why you can’t seem to break free from patterns that are holding you back. You know that the past is in the past; however, you can’t seem to move forward & truly live in the present.

I believe that all people are capable of making changes in their lives, and to be invited into that process as a therapist is an honor for me. My philosophy is that therapy is a partnership that is rooted in trust. My job is not to give advice, but to help you in exploring and finding the answers that are already intrinsically within you. I have worked in a variety of clinical settings, including substance abuse treatment facilities, as a behavioral health consultant at a primary care practice, and as the program director for an integrated dual diagnosis program.

I consider it my personal mission to reduce the divorce rate in the United States, 1 couple at a time. But preventing divorce will only be succesful if, in place of unfulfilling or chronically dysfunctional marriages, couples develop truly thriving marriages & deeply fulfilling relationships. Even in the most hopeless-seeming cases, couples can heal the damage from the past and move forward in a healthier way. Not all marriages can be saved, but when couples do the work to heal the past, their future can be happier, no matter what the outcome for the relationship.

You’re caught in another thought loop. You try to stop and think about something, anything else. But the harder you fight it, the more stuck you get. You’re lost in endless hypothetical scenarios. What if I lose my job? What if this pain in my side is actually something more serious? You’ve begun to second-guess every decision. Your confidence is at an all-time low. The people in your life have noticed that something is wrong. You don’t know how to tell them that you’re suffocating under the weight of constant fear. That you’re almost ready to give up. You need to make a change, but you don’t know how. It all feels so hopeless.

I believe in the inherent ability of a person to heal and make changes that will help establish a full and meaningful life experience. It is often the messages we learn subtly and hold onto, about what our experiences mean, about ourselves and the world around us, that inhibit this natural process of self acceptance and positive growth. As part of the therapeutic relationship, my hope is to provide a supportive space, and a sense of unconditional positive regard, for one to explore the conflicts that keep us "stuck" today.

What I feel I have to offer people is a helpful relationship based on acceptance and safety. My hope is always that together within this supportive relationship you can feel free to explore your thoughts, feelings, strengths, challenges and choices. I've found that understanding and accepting where we are gives us a strong foundation to sustain positive change. In over 30 years of professional experience, I've never worked with a person whose conditions/situations did not make sense, once these experiences have been understood.

Welcome to “Beyond Reach Professional Counseling Center.” Thank you for visiting my profile, Dana King LCMHCA. As an African-American woman, counseling was not something that was discussed in my family. I am excited to see how the perception of therapy has changed for the better. We all experience difficult times and sometimes it takes a professional to assist in the healing process and that’s ok. I want to provide you with a safe and open environment. I can offer a space of comfort, mutual respect and trust.
