Nakeesha Longmire, LCSW

A Licensed Clinical Social Worker Here for You

Committed to helping individuals, couples and families navigate the complexities of life and tackle other stressors that affect them throughout their journeys. Healing is a collaborative endeavor that requires honest compassion free from judgement.  I utilize a multidimensional approach to therapy, exploring each person’s biological, psychological and social needs.  It is my endeavor to promote healing from trauma, build self-worth, improve communication in relationships and reach goals. Change happens when people are given the guidance and space they need to draw from their own strengths and realize their greatest potential to live fulfilling lives.  My goal is to provide a compassionate supportive environment to help people overcome obstacles as they move forward and thrive. As a therapist, I am warm, open, encouraging, and direct.  It is my aim to be an interactive and solution focused therapist combining education, experience, creativity, and sense of humor with a down-to-earth, realistic approach to counseling.
