About Tamekia

Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with seven years of experience, based in North Carolina. Tamekia Powell supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar challenges, ADHD, and life transitions. She uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused care.

Tamekia builds treatment plans together with each person. She gathers information about emotional, social, work, and other life areas to shape goals. She asks for ongoing feedback so the plan stays relevant and practical. Sessions focus on clear communication and collaborative problem solving.

In practice she applies client-centered Therapy to prioritize the person's perspective and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Motivational Interviewing helps people find internal reasons to change, especially around addiction or habit shifts. Trauma-Focused Therapy guides work on past hurt while attending to current coping.

Her approach is straightforward and goal-oriented. People can expect discussion of concrete steps, skill practice, and check-ins on progress. Tamekia integrates assessment with conversation so goals can change as needs evolve.

She works in North Carolina and conducts sessions in English. Before booking, clients should confirm which session formats are currently offered.

How her methods are used in remote sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and views. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and helps clarify priorities so the person guides the work. This approach is useful when someone needs a collaborative, goal-led conversation about relationships, parenting, or life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and tests new ways of thinking and acting. Online sessions can include practical exercises, thought records, and homework to try between meetings. Trauma-Focused Therapy offers ways to address past hurt while building current coping skills and safety; it is used when trauma or abuse is part of the presenting concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the early work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, history, and preferences, and together they will pick methods to try and adjust them over time. The relationship is collaborative and adjusts based on what helps.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people meet from wherever they can be less distracted. These practical benefits often help people maintain consistent work on the issues that matter to them.
