Welcome to your new beginning! My name is Danielle Akins and I am a LPC and MHSP. I work with children of all ages, young adults, and seniors. I specialize in autism, play therapy, trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, and abuse (sexual and physical). I also specialize in sexual addiction and family counseling

I believe in the Holistic approach where each individual has their own specific needs and qualities. I use various approaches depending on each individual's circumstances and issues. I incorporate CBT, DBT, ACT, trauma-focused, solution-focused, and play therapy into my sessions.

I look forward to working with you as a a member of the team where we together will work towards a collective pathway for mental healing. I encourage you to make this first step by scheduling an appointment so we can start this new journey together.

I am a licensed professional counselor with a mental health service provider designation (LPC-MHSP) and 21 years of experience supporting adults ages 18 to 99. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship concerns, and identity exploration. I also help clients navigate career stress, caregiving demands, academic pressure, and the impact of cultural and systemic stressors.

I earned my master’s degree in counseling from Freed-Hardeman University. My approach is collaborative, strength-based, and trauma-informed, integrating cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused techniques, and mindfulness-based strategies. I am committed to ongoing education and cultural humility in my work.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of your next steps, I am here to walk alongside you. Together, we will build practical tools to strengthen emotional regulation, develop healthier thought patterns, and create meaningful, lasting change in your life.

My name is Amanda Embry. I received a bachelors in Psychology and went on to pursue my masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. For over 10 years, I have worked with ages from children to adulthood facing trauma, emotional and behavioral concerns, mental health and substance use concerns. I have worked with clients with depression, anxiety, trauma and, or family disruptions influencing a variety of mental health concerns. My goal for clients is for them to develop their own sense of autonomy to gain the skills to promote a healthy lifestyle and appropriate tools to find solutions and achieve their own individualized goals.

My approach is to meet each client where they are in their mental health journey to overcome challenges with mental health concerns relating to trauma, life events, and substance use. I utilize trauma-informed care to guide clients to solutions to manage life stressors and find a healthy and successful lifestyle in healing and developing their best selves.

With the right support, I believe everyone can achieve a well-rounded set of skills to cope with past and current life events, stressors and find solutions. With help, we are able to know our best selves and establish the way of thinking to achieve long-term success, stability and capacity to continue to grow through our journey.
