Relationship Issues Therapists in SouthPark, Charlotte, NC

Hello, are you ready to heal yourself emotionally and mentally? I’m Jimiko, a Licensed Clinical Therapist in NC and SC, owner of Emotional Healing & Recovery, LLC. Let's face it, life is hard and living in a toxic culture doesn't make it any easier. Talking and getting things out works wonders for your physical and mental health. Why suppress feelings and emotions when you can learn to work through them? I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. You are not alone in this crazy world so let's talk!

I strive to meet people where they are and create a safe environment where people can process underlying trauma/life-challenge to support more alignment with their intuition/goals. Part of my work with people entails reframing/challenging negative self-talk, helping set realistic short-term goals to aid in accomplishing long-term ones, improving emotion regulation, and developing mindfulness skills. I am an ally in all forms and address people-problems regardless of labels. I enjoy helping LCAS-A, LCAS-R, CADC-A, CADC-R clinicians through virtual weekly supervision groups on Wednesdays at 12pm. Individual supervisions are available.

I currently serve clients from ages 10-100, with my primary focus being adolescents and adults. I am a mental health counselor as well as a licensed clinical addiction specialist, meaning I love working with both mental health disorders and addictions. When working with mental health, I serve those struggling with anxiety/depression, trauma/sexual abuse, bipolar I or II disorder, dissociative-identity disorder, grief, self-esteem concerns, identity matters, religious or spiritual factors, stress management, and those on the autism spectrum. My goals for my clients are to be able to increase their sense of self-worth and autonomy.

I once read that, “Strength does not come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming things that you thought you couldn’t.” No one should have to go through life’s obstacles alone. As your therapist, I am here to support you and help you achieve your goals. I pride myself in offering a safe and nonjudgmental environment for growth and healing. It’s my desire that each client leaves my office feeling heard and seen. Together, we will come up with a plan to navigate any concerns or problems that are facing.

Choosing to reach out for help takes a significant amount of strength and courage. These qualities are invaluable in your healing. I work with individuals facing a variety of challenges that might present in different ways like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and more. I take a collaborative approach, meeting you where you are at, while also exploring underlying factors that could be associated with present day struggles. Together, we will focus on the past and present to help build a well balanced future.

I work with adults (young adults to seniors) dealing with anxiety and depression in reaction to trauma, life stage changes, relationships, divorce, parenting, career, death, illness, sexual abuse, body image, loneliness, and struggles with the loss of meaning, joy and direction in life.

I have been a therapist and consultant for 32 years, supporting those that are looking for solutions to life's difficulties. Whether it is relationships, internal struggles, career guidance, or family conflicts, I love using evidence-based tools to support the discovery of your solutions. Having worked in the substance use disorder and mental health profession and at the executive level of larger organizations, I have years of practice allowing me to be creative and individualized in supporting your needs.

Experience, experience, experience. As a psychologist with over 35 years serving adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families, I understand that "well begun is half done" which points to the importance of respecting each individual's unique starting point in therapy. I have a distinct health orientation based in science which suggests that most emotional distress is ultimately stress-related. Therefore, emotional balance and well-being is inherently available to most individuals. Ultimately, most of us find that quality emotional work pays off.

I am the owner and therapist behind Next Steps Counseling and Consulting, PLLC. With a focus on anxiety, life transitions, and relationships, I specialize in disordered eating, body image, and helping families support each other. For 15 years, I have provided therapy in multiple settings, including outpatient, PHP/IOP, community mental health, and private practice. I spent ten years of my career in clinical and administrative leadership but felt a calling to return to direct service in response to the current mental health crisis. I opened a virtual private practice and have loved being able to return to therapy and direct care.

Life challenges can leave us feeling lost, overwhelmed, and vulnerable. The good news is, you don't have to navigate this journey alone. Welcome to a place where healing, growth, and self-discovery can flourish. Together, we can work to find ways to live a life that is more fulfilling and meaningful by utilizing evidence-based therapeutic approaches that are tailored to your unique needs and experiences.

Hello and welcome. Seeking therapy is a brave first step. Let me tell you a little about myself and my practice. I am dually licensed in both addiction and mental health. I have 17 years of experience working with individuals who are experiencing issues in their lives that are a result of: alcohol, drugs, and other compulsive behavior, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, self-esteem and self-worth, trauma and PTSD, abuse and neglect, mood and thought disorders, and codependency. My therapeutic practice is crafted to meet you where you are and to help guide, give a voice to, and empower you to heal yourself.

I strive to create a safe environment in an atmosphere of unconditional positive regard so that each client feels the freedom to explore intimate concerns. I hold a PhD in counseling from the University of North Carolina Charlotte and am a certified hypnotherapist. My theoretical approach to counseling employs aspects of person-centered therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy and reality therapy. All are well established and respected therapies.
