Anika Thompson, MS, MHC-LP

Anika Thompson's compassionate and insightful approach to mental health counseling has profoundly impacted my journey towards healing and self-discovery, making a lasting difference in my life.

As a passionate Caribbean woman, I am grateful to have support not only within my family but within my community as well. My way of “paying it forward” is embodying the role of a Mental Health Counselor offering that support to others. I am deeply committed to understanding and addressing the unique challenges within my community. My specialization lies in working with individuals grappling with trauma, anxiety, and depression, recognizing the significance of cultural diversity in the therapeutic process.

I embrace a trauma-informed, client-centered approach. I integrate various interventions and treatment modalities to tailor my services to the specific needs of each individual. My goal is to provide a safe and healing space for my clients, fostering collaboration to co-create a meaningful life free from the weight of generational trauma.

Empathy and holistic care are at the core of my counseling philosophy. By combining my experiences and skills, I aim to empower my clients on their journey toward well-being and resilience.
