Therapy for Residents of NC, SC, MA, and FL
In Swahili, “Karibuni” means
Welcome.
At Karibuni Counseling and Wellness,
You are “Welcome to Heal”
Hey Sis, You are Welcome to Heal.
You deserve true peace; in mind, body, and soul. It's time to invest in yourself and claim the well-being you’ve been longing for.
I know that you're tired, and that’s completely okay! You may feel stretched thin under the weight of the world.
It’s time for a paradigm shift; and that change starts with you.
On the outside, it looks like you have everything together, but inside,
You feel like you’re falling apart.
You feel like an imposter, as if you're walking in someone else’s shoes.
You no longer recognize the person staring back at you in the mirror
Your hands shake, your stomach fills with butterflies, and your mind won’t stop racing. You wonder, 'Is something wrong with me?' or tell yourself, 'Maybe if I just focus on work a little more, I can push these feelings aside.’
You know imposter syndrome all too well. It creeps in at work, even though you're just as qualified as everyone around you. Maybe it’s the voice of your mother echoing in your mind, reminding you, 'You’ve gotta work twice as hard to get any recognition from them.’
The person you see in the mirror resembles you logically, but physically feels like a distorted reflection. You wipe your eyes, trying to clear the image, but the person staring back feels like a caricature of who you truly are
Let’s gain the clarity and perspective you deserve; so you can truly see and embrace who you are, once and for all!
My name is Akinlana,
a.k.a. The “Hey Sis!” Therapist and I can help guide you back to yourself.
As the expert in your own life, you hold the answers. I serve as the GPS, guiding you back to your true self through reflective practices of self-identity. Together, we’ll restore your work-life balance so you can operate with greater ease and flow. We’ll help you set healthier boundaries, both with yourself and others, improving your relationships at home, work, and beyond.
Imagine sleeping soundly through the night, waking up refreshed, and ready to thrive in all areas of your life. It’s time to live your life like it’s GOLDEN, and I’m here to help you get there.
Let’s see how therapy works!
-
Therapy for Anxiety
I understand how defeating and debilitating anxiety can feel. However, I also know that with the right tools and support, you can learn to manage this feeling and reclaim control over your life. As a compassionate, friendly, culturally sensitive, and open-minded Black therapist, I’m here to provide the support you need.
Whether you’re facing relationship challenges, work-related stress, or simply seeking to improve your mental health and well-being, I’m here to help you navigate this journey.
-
Therapy for Depression
Are you beginning to recognize that those feelings you've experienced since high school may actually be symptoms of depression? You are not alone, and you deserve support that truly understands your unique experiences. As a Black therapist, I provide a safe and empathetic space where you can explore your emotions, gain valuable insights, and develop effective strategies to reclaim your joy. Together, we will work toward healing and empowerment, guiding you to embrace a life filled with purpose and fulfillment. It’s time to prioritize your mental health—let’s embark on this transformative journey together.
-
Therapy for Trauma
Healing from trauma is not a linear process. Some days, it may feel easier to push those feelings aside and pretend they don’t exist, while on other days, the weight of it can feel overwhelming. It’s important to stand firm in your commitment to take care of your mental health. Allow yourself to experience your emotions; your healing journey is both significant and necessary.
While trauma may be part of your story, it does not define you. You have the power to focus on how you can continue to grow and thrive despite the challenges. Remember, you’re not alone. Together, we can navigate this journey toward healing and empowerment, helping you reclaim your life.
-
EMDR Therapy
Struggling with anxiety, depression, or trauma? It’s time to reclaim your sense of self and foster deeper connections with those you love. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy can help you manage intense emotions and establish healthy boundaries, allowing you to thrive both personally and professionally.
-
Expressive Arts Therapy
Reconnect with your true self and express the thoughts and feelings that have been suppressed. Expressive Arts Therapy offers a powerful and creative approach to healing that can help you unlock your emotions, gain clarity, and cultivate a sense of freedom.
In a safe and supportive environment, we’ll explore various artistic modalities—such as music, movement, visual art, and writing.
This therapeutic journey will empower you to break free from limitations and embrace a life filled with authenticity and joy.

As you engage in therapy, celebrate your progress and insights. Recognize that healing takes time and is not linear.
