Fredricka Kotey, MS, NCC, CTP

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Sometimes life’s hardest seasons can leave us feeling stuck, wounded, or disconnected from ourselves, from others, or even from our sense of purpose and direction. You may be carrying the weight of past trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, or painful life transitions, and feel exhausted from trying to hold everything together on your own. As a wife, mother, and fellow human being, I understand how tough, yet meaningful the journey toward healing can be. My own experiences with growth and reflection have shaped my passion for helping others navigate their path toward healing and wholeness. I strive to create a calm, supportive environment where you feel heard, understood, challenged, and respected. Together, we will explore the experiences, patterns, and beliefs that may be holding you back, while identifying new ways to move forward with greater clarity and confidence. I work with adults experiencing trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. My approach is relational and integrative, drawing from evidence-based practices such as EMDR, somatic approaches, CBT, DBT, ACT, family systems, and mindfulness-based strategies. Each session is tailored to your unique needs, with a strong focus on the therapeutic relationship as a foundation for growth. I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and belief systems. For those who desire it, I offer Christian counseling, integrating faith, prayer, and biblical principles into the therapeutic process. Others may prefer a fully clinical approach, and that is equally supported, as my goal is to meet you where you are. In addition to my life experience, I am a National Certified Counselor, Certified Trauma Professional, and Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern in the state of Florida. I bring over 20 years of experience in social services and behavioral health, working with diverse populations across government, nonprofit, and corporate settings. I also engage in ongoing supervision with Qualified Supervisor Laura Anne Pasker, LMHC, CCTP, to ensure high-quality care while I am pre-licensed. If you are interested in working together, I invite you to request a 15-minute consultation. This gives us an opportunity to connect, discuss your needs, and determine whether we are a good fit.
