My passion is guiding clients toward healthier lifestyle choices and increase their effectiveness. Our goal is to help gain insight into the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are preventing them from achieving their full potential. The majority of my treatment experience is working with adults, adolescents, families and couples in a private practice setting. I've developed expertise following my passion to support clients and family members working through substance abuse issues, mood disorders, and trauma. I treat each client as an individual in a comfortable, supportive environment where clients will feel respected.

Are you stuck and needing to process childhood trauma? Is your adolescent/teen sad, anxious or angry, and you know they need help? Do you feel like no one understands the challenges of creating a family (infertility, perinatal loss, miscarriage, IVF, adoption)? I shifted careers into mental health counseling in 2016 after 20 years of community advocacy to address injustice and empower women, children, and communities. I am a healing-centered, trauma-focused therapist now because I believe you - and your family - deserve guidance and support to reimagine and re-author your life narrative.

It's difficult, if not impossible, to truly thrive in life when you are suffering. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or feeling abused, neglected, or misunderstood, having a regular time and space to talk about these issues in a safe and confidential space is essential to working through them. Those who commit to this process discover that, over time, their suffering is more manageable than they thought, and that living a more fulfilling life is well within their grasp.

When describing my work as a therapist, I often say that therapy is the art of having awkward conversations. The things that come up during therapy sessions aren’t often broached around the dinner table or at social gatherings, so talking about them can feel overwhelmingly weird. No one wakes up in the morning and says, "Hmm. You know what I'd like to do today? Spend an hour talking to a stranger and tell them all my deep, dark secrets." Sometimes, though, life circumstances, interpersonal difficulties, and emotional troubles make these conversations necessary. This is where I come in.

Professionally and personally, I have a passion for social justice work and am driven to help all people successfully navigate an increasingly complex multicultural society. As technology shrinks the world, we are exposed to an ever more diverse set of people, communities, ideas, and perspectives. Whether we are a part of historically privileged or oppressed communities, all of us are working to find our place in this neo-diverse society. More and more, I see this challenge represented in my clients as they seek understanding of their issues, strengths, and identities.

My ideal client would be anyone who would be interested in aspiring to be all that they were made to be. I would like to help you be intentional about your mental health and your relationships. I can help you learn ways to deal with your anxiety, depression and process any grief that you may be going through. I would like to work with you to help you have a better marriage or to be a more intentional parent. I have enjoyed working with teenagers for years and I also enjoy working with all aged adults. If you find yourself in some kind of struggle and do not know what to do give me a call or email and let's see if I can help.

Are you feeling like you are overwhelmed? Do you feel like there is a number of unresolved issues in your life? Do you have a history of trauma that you feel is affecting your life today? Have you noticed that you are withdrawing from others and maybe even isolating yourself? Do you lack the tools to live in society? Is there a lack of supportive people in your life? Do you have a substance issue? Are you self-medicating? Do you find that it is hard to express yourself in social settings? Has someone told you that you have "anger mgmt. issues?" Do you lack healthy coping skills and outlets? Are you constantly negative?

WHAT IS YOUR STORY?? How do you want to grow? What is still hurting you or holding you back? Hi, my name is Jabari Adams and I am a clinical counselor that works with my clients to promote positive and healthy outcomes. I tend to focus on the holistic health of my clients, encouraging them to prioritize their mental, physical, spiritual and emotional health.

I am scheduling clients for August 2024 for in-person in Durham, NC or virtual sessions (in both North Carolina and South Carolina). Are you needing support with navigating and healing from attachment and relational trauma, struggling with family of origin issues and family estrangement, or in the process of exploring your sexuality, identity, and queerness? Then you may find a therapeutic home with me. I also focus on issues that arise in ethical non-monogamy (I have 7 years of personal experience with ENM), boundary and communication work, and affect phobia (fear of feeling your emotions and you need help feeling them).

I have just over 18 years of post-licensure experience in the field of behavioral health. I have worked with persons, struggling with PTSD, trauma, anxiety, depression, and mood disorders, persons with substance use issues, anger, stress management needs and relational problems.

Life transitions can be challenging. Adjusting to new roles in life, new relationships, and new dynamics all create opportunities for growth as well as sources of stress. If you are struggling with transitions, you are not alone. Some of the most challenging life transitions to navigate can happen around pregnancy, parenting, and the postpartum period. Whether you are experiencing perinatal mood or anxiety challenges, dealing with loss, or struggling to adapt to a new way of life, I want to help you navigate this season with grace, grit, and self compassion.
