About Destiny Henkel
I specialize in working with teens and adults who are struggling with anxiety, feelings of hopelessness, and memories of upsetting experiences. As a LGBTQ+ and racial justice-allied therapist I recognize the impact of discrimination, family conflict, and neurodiversity have on a person's life. It can be difficult to imagine a life without anxiety or depression, but with the right support you can find regain a sense of hope and inner peace.
I utilize a trauma informed and somatic-focused approach to care which focuses on the connection between mind and body, which is essential in order to sort through distorted thinking patterns that stem from stress and trauma. I'm also trained in A.R.T which can accelerate your recovery from upsetting or traumatic experiences.
With warmth and empathy, I'll create a safe space for you to overcome these struggles and transition from simply surviving to thriving. Take the first step today and reach out for help so you can move forward in life with a sense of clarity, confidence, and inner peace. You deserve a brighter future!
