My name is Tia Hunter, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (LCMHCA). I create a liberating, supportive, and transparent environment for each client (ages 16+) to inspire a growth mindset. Our sessions have a person-centered foundation and incorporate Narrative, Acceptance and Commitment, Cognitive Behavioral + Mindfulness, and Existential therapies. In addition to your therapeutic goals, there is an emphasis on personal growth, healing, and empowerment during our time together.
I’m LGBTQIA+ affirming, a supporter/member of the healthy at any size community, and have a special interest in counseling clients with chronic illnesses and invisible disabilities. I am passionate about members of minority, marginalized, and divergent communities being heard and seen. I have received training in Phases 1 & 2 of Brainspotting in an effort to provide another therapeutic outlet for those living with trauma, dissociation, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, and chronic pain.
Depending on a client’s preference, I also incorporate restorative yoga and somatic therapy into sessions for clients who would like to expand on the mind-body connection. Prioritizing yourself can be hard. When you’re ready, I’m more than happy to support you.
