Rekenya Edwards, LCMHCA

Hello, my name is Rekenya Edwards, and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina, a National Certified Counselor, and a Licensed Professional Counselor. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work and Master’s Degree in Counselor Education from East Carolina University. I’m passionate about working with adolescents and adults, helping them navigate life’s challenges, and supporting their growth.

I strive to create a space that feels warm, safe, and judgment-free—one where you can feel supported as you work through life’s difficulties. I see therapy as a partnership between us, where we collaborate to explore your experiences, build on your strengths, and achieve your goals. I believe that meaningful change happens when we combine connection with a gentle balance of nurture and challenge.

Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, anxious or weighed down by the effects of trauma, grief, or life’s uncertainties. My approach is integrative, blending a variety of therapeutic techniques tailored to your needs, values, and goals. Together, we’ll work to help you better understand yourself, heal from past experiences, and move forward with confidence.

I know that starting therapy can feel like a big step, but you don’t have to face it alone. My goal is to empower you, support you, and walk alongside you as you create the life you want. I look forward to partnering with you on this journey of healing and growth.
