I’m Dr. Jumie, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Clinical Psychotherapist. I’m here to support you on your mental health journey. Representation in mental health care is important, so I create a safe and inclusive environment where you can feel seen and heard.
As a therapist, I believe in creating a space where healing is collaborative, practical, and deeply human. I blend Solution-Focused, Client-Centered, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapies to support meaningful, lasting change. My approach is all about identifying practical solutions in a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment. Clients often describe my style as direct yet nurturing—offering clear guidance with compassion and care.
I specialize in working with adults aged 25 and older navigating a range of challenges, including anxiety, stress, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. From our very first session, we’ll assess your needs and co-create a tailored plan that aligns with your goals and values. I offer a grounded, empathetic space for you to speak freely, process your experiences, and move toward greater emotional clarity and resilience.
In my relationship therapy work, my area of expertise is helping heterosexual couples who are ready to move beyond conflict and reconnect with purpose. My couples sessions are focused, respectful, and goal-oriented—ideal for partners who are committed to doing the work of resolution, rebuilding trust, and improving communication.
Please note: Couples therapy is offered as a self-pay service only.
I also offer coaching services for leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and entrepreneurs-in-the-making. These sessions are designed to support emotional resilience, performance, communication, and leadership development.
Coaching topics often include:
Burnout prevention and stress management
Work-life balance and self-regulation
Executive confidence
Boundary-setting
Whether you’re navigating workplace challenges or looking to strengthen your leadership, coaching provides a focused, results-oriented space to grow. I’ll help equip you with the tools to thrive personally and professionally.
As part of my commitment to mental health advocacy, I provide speaking engagements and media consultations on a variety of topics related to emotional wellness and mental health. Whether I’m leading a keynote, panel, podcast, or workshop, I bring clinical insight and human connection to every conversation. My goal is always to inform, inspire, and reduce stigma—helping individuals and communities feel seen, understood, and empowered.
I am available for:
Keynote presentations
Panel discussions
Media interviews (TV, podcast, radio, print)
Community and school events
Corporate wellness workshops
Popular speaking topics include:

Mental health equity and access
Whether you’re hosting a large event or producing a media segment, I tailor each talk to connect meaningfully with your audience—bringing clarity, empathy, and clinical expertise to every engagement.
In my professional journey, I’ve worked with federal agencies, non-profits, and for-profit organizations. With a Doctorate in Psychology, a Master in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and a Bachelor in Psychology, I bring a wealth of education and training to my practice.
Regardless of your faith background, I provide compassionate, faith-affirming therapy. Your beliefs are respected and valued as we work together toward your mental health goals.
Let’s embark on this journey toward healing together.
