I'm Ashanti
Maybe you’ve hit a wall and aren't sure where to go next, or perhaps your relationships just aren't giving you the support you need right now. It could even be that things are going "okay," but you want a consistent space to check in on yourself and keep your mental wellness a priority. I’m Ashanti, and I’m here to tell you that it’s okay to not have all the answers yet. My goal is to help you navigate those moments that feel heavy, confusing, or even the ones that are exciting but a little scary. Together, we’ll work on creating real, lasting change so you can live a life that feels authentic and empowered.
I’m a warm, genuine therapist dedicated to helping you grow. I offer a safe space defined by openness and curiosity to help you explore your full self. I’m deeply passionate about supporting my LGBTQ+ and Black communities. I understand that your identity is not a single thread; I acknowledge the complex intersections you navigate and seek to celebrate your full, authentic self. True and lasting change happens when you feel seen and supported.
I received my Master's in Counseling in 2013 from Alabama A&M University. My Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology came from Huntingdon College. In 2014 I became a nationally certified Rehabilitation Counselor and in 2023 I became a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois. I am licensed to provide counseling services to clients in Missouri, Illinois, Vermont, and South Carolina. Whether you're looking to heal, grow, or just maintain your balance, I’m ready when you are. You don’t have to do this alone—let’s talk.

I integrate evidence-based methods with a compassionate, personalized approach. No code-switching or shrinking required. Sessions are adapted to your needs, goals, and comfort level.
My Philosophy
I believe therapy is a sacred, and welcoming space where we cultivate the deep, authentic connection necessary for you to navigate life’s complexities with confidence. My purpose is to walk alongside you as you replenish your inner well-being and empower yourself to create lasting, meaningful change.



Support That Meets You Where You Are
