Hi! My name is Dr. Ameinah Thomas, and I am a counseling intern pursuing my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with an emphasis in trauma. I also hold a doctorate in Educational Leadership and have spent much of my career working with young people and communities through education, mentorship, advocacy, and support.

While my doctoral work focused on educational leadership, mental health and wellness have remained a passion throughout my personal and professional journey. Through my work in schools and communities, I have continually seen the ways trauma, identity, relationships, systemic inequities, and life experiences can impact a person’s ability to learn, thrive, and simply feel well. These experiences have deepened my commitment to supporting the mental and emotional well-being of the communities I serve.

My approach is person-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive. I strive to create a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where you can show up as your full self. I am particularly interested in supporting individuals navigating identity, life transitions, relationships, trauma, family dynamics, self-worth, and the pressures of caring for or being everything to others.

As a Black woman, mother, educator, and lifelong advocate for equity, I understand that our well-being is often shaped by our identities, relationships, communities, and the world around us. My hope is to meet you where you are and create space for healing, growth, and becoming the version of yourself you desire to be.
