Bianca Hughes, Licensed Professional Counselor
My Therapeutic Approach
I See You & Listen to You
I desire to know your personal story. I listen patiently and attentively to provide you with an experience that allows you to feel seen and heard.
I like to Ask Questions
I ask questions that freely allow you to search yourself, gently let down your protective guard, and create a deeper level of self-awareness. Questions that often make people stop and say, “I never looked at it that way before.”
Authenticity
We all crave authenticity, yet we often hide behind a mask of what we think society and others want us to be because we fear rejection. My authenticity creates a safe, non-judgmental, and warm environment, which allows you to BE YOU without a mask.
Laughter
I welcome laughter in the therapy; it brings an element of genuineness because we all like to laugh. Laughter is an important part of life and very healing.
A Mirror of Truth
As a mirror of truth, I will lovingly point out difficult truths that resonate with you in a big way. Identifying the hard truths helps you become more honest with yourself and comfortable in your own skin.
Self-Love
I want to help people become all God has created them to be. I believe we all have a unique purpose that is sometimes buried under layers of shame, anger, anxiety, regret, fear, failure, inadequacy, discouragement, hurt, and resentment, amongst other things.
My Passion
I guide people to explore their path back to themselves and align to their truth. I believe we all have a unique light that is sometimes buried and dimmed under layers of shame, anger, anxiety, regret, fear, failure, inadequacy, self-doubt, hurt, and resentment, amongst other things. My focus in therapy is to help you peel back the layers to discover the treasure within you, confidently shine your light, authentically be you, and live aligned with who you truly are.
It’s a beautiful gift to see my clients choosing courageous steps to set themselves free by being vulnerable to share their stories of shame and express their personal truth. As a result, my clients begin to accept themselves right where they are.
Soul Aligning Therapy
I provide soul-aligning therapy, helping you connect with your most authentic self. My approach blends intuitive wisdom with therapeutic modalities, creating a safe space for you to explore what matters most to you, based on your values and beliefs.
I work with clients from across diverse spiritual paths, including those deconstructing from organized religion, exploring expansive faith, or discovering what spirituality means outside traditional frameworks If you desire spiritually integrated therapy, I am trained to weave spiritual practices and beliefs into our work together. I welcome all faith traditions and perspectives, honouring Your beliefs and supporting your authentic path.
Background
Born and raised in the UK with Caribbean heritage (yes I still have my accent lol), I've spent the last 20 years building my life in the United States. I understand what it means to navigate between cultures, identities, and evolving sense of home, and I bring this multicultural perspective into creating therapeutic space that honours diverse experiences.
Education
I completed a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling at Richmont Graduate University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia. Additionally I am an EMDR trained therapist.
