Octavia Henry
(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT)
Accepting clients in NC, SC, and FL for individual and/or couples therapy!
Welcome! I work with a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, life transitions, school problems, and relationship difficulties. I especially love working with "people pleasers" and folx who are feeling pressure from every aspect of their life. If you struggle with perfectionism, boundary-setting, or self-advocacy, we might be a great fit! I am LGBTQ+ affirming and welcome clients from all different backgrounds/identities. I offer a safe and welcoming space where everyone can be their authentic selves. As your therapist, I walk beside you, supporting your journey to discover what works best for you. My role is to help my client harness their strengths and work together to develop effective strategies to achieve their goals. I want my clients to gain autonomy in their relationships and lives, build confidence, and form meaningful relationships. When you're ready to talk, reach out for a free 15 min phone consult. I look forward to our time together!
