Our Approach

It all begins with your story. Maybe you want to address a mental illness. Maybe you want to increase your confidence. Or maybe you are undergoing major life events. As a therapist, I work collaboratively with clients to identify goals and develop a customized treatment plan. A strong emphasis on building a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship is imperative to this foundation.

  • Joliethia Robinson, Life Coach

    Do you often get caught up deep in thought and find yourself traveling down a rabbit hole that leaves you feeling depressed, worried, or hopeless? Do you often feel stuck because you're afraid to make decisions for fear of the outcome not working in your favor? Do you find yourself procrastinating on starting new projects or finishing old ones?

    If you answered yes to two or more of those questions, this could mean that you struggle with things like feeling burnt out, people pleasing behaviors, anxiety, depression, low self-worth/confidence, etc.

    The next question to ask yourself is "are you ready to take the driver seat of your life again?" If you answered yes, then you have come to the right place. My name is Jolethia Robinson. I, too, have faced those struggles that held me back from living my best life. I overcame those struggles by rewiring my brain through mindfulness, spiritual practices, fitness, and replacing bad habits with healthier ones. I made a lifestyle change, and I want to encourage you to do the same.

    Through solution-focused coaching, you will be encouraged, supported, and guided as you begin to transform your life. I will provide a safe space for you to talk about “it”, no matter what “it” is. You will learn and begin the practice of mindfulness and holistic wellness. Let’s get ready to redefine who you are, discover your purpose, overcome challenges, sharpen skills, create new habits, set and accomplish attainable goals.

    Change begins when you make the first step. Call or email to get started today!
