About Tamekia
Tamekia Powell is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with seven years of practice experience. She works with adults on issues like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and anger. Sessions are conducted in English and she practices from North Carolina.
She takes a collaborative, client-centered approach. She and the person in therapy build goals together and adjust them as new information comes up. She asks for ongoing input so sessions stay relevant to daily life and real problems. Communication is kept direct and practical so people know what to work on next.
Her work uses practical strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Motivational interviewing techniques are used when people want to make changes that feel difficult or stuck. Trauma-focused methods are used when past events keep affecting current feelings and reactions.
Tamekia pays attention to a broad view of a person’s situation - emotional, physical, social, and work life all matter. She discusses how coping skills fit into everyday routines, and she encourages steps that can be practiced between sessions. For people dealing with anger, she helps identify triggers, manage intense moments, and build clearer communication.

How her approaches work in online sessions
Tamekia uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in ways that translate well to remote work. Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s immediate concerns and priorities. Online sessions can be used to talk through what matters now and set short-term goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing small behavior changes to reduce problems like anxiety, anger, or depressive mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying practical steps together, reviewing what helps, and changing the plan if needed so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Practical benefits of meeting online include easier fitting of sessions into a workday, avoiding travel time, and using shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Because session formats are not specified here, confirm which formats are offered before booking. The focus is on using sessions to practice coping skills, plan real-life experiments, and build clearer responses to anger and stress that can be used between meetings.
