About Felecia
Felecia has 25 years of professional experience and practices in Michigan as an LMSW, Licensed Master Social Worker. She describes trauma, including childhood experiences, as a common source of ongoing anxiety and low mood. She offers direct, compassionate care for people impacted by domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking, survivors of homicide, and other forms of abuse.
Therapy with her centers on building the skills a person needs to manage symptoms and cope with hard memories. She encourages clients to notice strengths they already have and to use them as tools for change. Sessions typically focus on manageable steps rather than vague goals.
Her work also pays attention to guilt, shame, forgiveness, isolation, and self-love. She guides conversations that help clients untangle painful feelings and practice different ways of responding to themselves and others.
Felecia asks for courage from the people she meets and offers steady support while they take the next step. To begin, she uses a matching process so clients can schedule sessions that fit their needs and timing.
How these approaches work in online care
Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding how past hurts affect current feelings and behavior. It helps people slowly process painful memories and learn ways to respond differently to triggers.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence emotions and actions. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits that reduce anxiety and depression.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, focuses on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships. It offers concrete tools for handling intense feelings and communicating more clearly.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and personal style. That decision can change over time as progress is made.
If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking. Confirming formats helps plan for sessions that fit work, family, and daily routines. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments, fit therapy into a busy day, and use short check-ins when schedules are tight.
