Hello and welcome! I am Demica Jacquot, a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, working under the supervision of Ayesha Lakhani, MA, LPC-S. With over six years of experience in business management and talent development, I bring a unique perspective to my practice, helping clients from diverse backgrounds navigate life’s challenges.
Assisting individuals aged 14 and older, as well as couples, my professional focus is based on the fundamental belief that we all inherently seek lives marked by health, happiness, and fulfillment. My therapeutic framework prioritizes empathy, respect, and creating a confidential, non-judgmental setting that encourages self exploration and discovery.
Utilizing a holistic model that addresses mind, body, and spirit, I draw from techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Together, we will work to understand your experiences and develop empowering strategies.
For individuals, this may involve:
- Managing emotions and challenging self-defeating patterns
- Healing from individual and multigenerational trauma
- Addressing anxiety
- Building conflict resolution skills
- Coping strategies and techniques
For couples, I offer pre-engagement, marital, and intimacy counseling. I also provide Christian-based counseling and explore various aspects of religion and spirituality, as preferred.
I am dedicated to cultivating a diverse and inclusive space that acknowledges and appreciates the unique qualities of every individual.
I look forward to the opportunity to support you on your journey toward healing and growth. Let’s get you healed and healthy!
Fun Fact: I am a FOODIE and I absolutely love new experiences!
I will try just about anything at least once.
So far, I’ve Skydived, parasailed, and ran a half marathon (13.1 miles). I am looking forward to traveling more, expanding my pallet, and creating as many memories as possible.
