Interpersonal Therapists in Wendell, NC

Hello! My name is Shamika Milliken. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with many years of Social Work and Counseling experience, within a variety settings. I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work from Elizabeth City State University, and later received my Master of Social Work Degree from University of New England. I am dedicated and passionate about my work as a therapist. I feel very grateful to be able to help individuals discover their strengths and learn new skills that will allow them to cope with life unpredictable challenges.

Your plate may be full and it may also seem difficult managing it all. Life is hard and it's also hard to make time for therapy, but your future self will thank you. My goal is to create a non-judgmental, open, and supportive environment to foster positive growth and self discovery. I view therapy with a collaborative lens and value the rapport built between therapist and client to identify needs and concerns while working towards identified therapeutic goals.

An individual's mental, physical, social, emotional and spiritual dimensions are deeply intertwined. Consequently, and considering a person's multiple dimensions, I provide a holistic approach to mental health and well-being that enables me to see an individual as a complete being, which allows helping each client to achieve comprehensive results. I offer a warm, confidential and empathetic style of individual, family and group counseling providing modern and evidence-based practices of psychotherapy, as well as ancient healing modalities such as meditation and energy healing.

Are you interested in learning more? You deserve to be understood, valued, and given the opportunity to gain the tools for a more fulfilling life. I offer services that empower my clients with tools to live their best life!

Although I have 28 years of experience in mental health working with a wide range of therapeutic issues, I now focus on treating adults who are having problems managing depression, anxiety, phobias, and changes in life. If you're ready, motivated for change and are willing to take action, I can help you on your journey with a traditional or creative therapy model or with metaphysical insights. Let's get started!

Are you isolating from others, judging yourself, putting others’ needs before your own, or feeling a lack of purpose/hope for the future? Feeling stuck, anxious, hopeless, irritable, moody? Do you experience low self-esteem, a loss of interest in activities/people, strained relationships with others, a sense of grief of the old version of yourself? Are you keeping yourself busy so you don’t have to think about the state of your life? Or doing the opposite – can’t getting out of bed because your life is not what you imagined?

Stressful life experiences, family conflict, difficulties adjusting, and mental health issues can be overwhelming and at times debilitating. Therapy can provide a safe and supportive outlet to navigate these issues and help individuals and families restore themselves and experience positive and lasting change. Restoration Family Counseling feels strongly that the foundation of therapy is a warm and collaborative relationship where evidence-based therapy techniques are chosen based on each individual's presenting issues, personality, and cultural and familial background. Restoration Family Counseling has a team of 5 clinicians and works with young children, teens, individual adults, families, and couples.

I call myself the "Perfect Starter Therapist". If you've never been to therapy and are a bit nervous, I am the support you need. I am here to support my clients by setting appropriate boundaries, providing trauma informed care and learning the tools to advocate for yourself and continuous development of self awareness. Though I help in a variety of mental health and personal life challenges, I enjoy collaborating and challenging my clients to develop healthier life patterns and breaking the cycle of unhealthy patterns often developed throughout generations.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with thousands of hours of counseling and related experience. I hold a Masters Degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. I have experience working with men, women, and children of all ages. My professional experience includes individual counseling, couples counseling, family counseling, and group counseling. I practice from an eclectic style with an emphasis on the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) modality. I am an action-oriented clinician who believes outcomes speak for themselves.

Jacqueline specializes in trauma, PTSD, grief, maintaining sobriety, depression, and anxiety. She also works with devitalized couples looking to heal and renew their relationship. Her clinical approach is centered around the belief that each person has the ability to live a successful and productive life if given the support and tools to do so. She uses a variety of evidence-based treatment models (i.e., CBT, DBT, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Prepare-Enrich, and solution-focused) to collaboratively design and implement effective treatment plans that empower clients to navigate and overcome struggles in their lives.

By understanding people's needs and wants, I can create a safe space to allow the flow of thoughts and feelings those have bundled inside. Therapy is more than just talking to someone, it takes work, it takes healing, and it takes time. The concept of therapy can be scary for those who were made to stigmatize it, but by allowing yourself to open up to someone who is unbiased, it can be beneficial in the long run. I have known that I have always wanted to be a therapist. Ever since I was 12 years old I was always the friend that cared so much about others and created an empathetic environment.

Getting stuck on life's journey happens to all of us at one time or another. When you become more aware of your own story, thoughts, behaviors, emotions, and beliefs, you have an increased ability to face challenges and overcome adversity with success. My goal is to help you discover alternatives to address the challenges that you face.
