Jaeron-Rae Dukes (R Jay)

"I believe everyone has the ability to find healing, and you are the expert on you!" 

I have worked with clients facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), coping skills, career challenges, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and eating disorders. I have a special interest in supporting LGBTQIA+ clients and have received specialized training for working with transgender individuals.

My therapy style is person-centered, focusing on your unique experiences and goals. My role is to support you and provide resources as you navigate your healing journey. I integrate cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), humanistic therapy, narrative therapy, and solution-focused therapy, tailoring our work to meet your specific needs. My training includes Polyvagal Theory, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, Ego States, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Attachment-Based Therapy, Strength-Based approaches, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Gottman’s Couples Therapy.

I understand that it takes courage to reach out for support on your path to a happier, more fulfilling life. That courage will serve you well, and I look forward to working with you!
