QIANA JONES, LCSW
CEO/Therapist
Welcome! My name is Qiana Jones (pronounced Key-Ah-Nuh). I'm the CEO/Founder of H2 Lifecare, LLC. I have over 18 years of experience in working with families and youth at risk in areas of child welfare and mental health care. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I enjoy my career of service to others and take pride in my ability to provide quality mental health care. I believe that mental health care can be delivered via many approaches that meet the unique needs of those I'm helping. I have been formally trained in and use a number of evidence based practices in therapy. I believe that treatment works best when it is delivered with understanding, compassion and authenticity.
LAKINTA GARNER
Outpatient Therapist
Hello! My name is Lakinta Garner. My purpose as your Therapist and Mental Health Advocate is to help you create positive and long-lasting changes, for you to reconnect and become active participants in your lives and communities through your relationships, daily functioning, and your view of self. I aim to provide resources, tools, and healthy coping skills that you can use to succeed in your journey of healing.
My experience includes providing services for children, adolescents, adults, and college students for the following specialties: depression, anxiety, stress management, behavioral issues, life/school adjustments, sleep management, romantic and social relationships/skills, and grief and loss. Based on your unique goals and needs, I will utilize one or multiple evidence-based practices in therapy, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Play Therapy, Solution-focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.
In our sessions and space, I am a helping partner in your process. I will actively listen to you and work with you at your own pace rather than working for you. As your therapist, I believe it is important for us to build rapport and establish a strong and trustworthy therapeutic relationship. I will provide a space that is judge-free, safe, welcoming, and one that encourages honesty and openness from each other. I commend you for rising strong, recognizing your story, and taking action to choose how your story ends. I look forward to working with you!
SHANIKA BROWN, LCSWA
Outpatient Therapist
Are you no longer happy with your unhappiness? Have you come to realize that carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders gets heavier; with each situation or event that brings more responsibility and accountability? You do not have to continue to feel alone and unheard. The grace and space you provide to others, you deserve it too. I am proud of you for taking this step to help you better navigate life and build emotional and mental stability. Within the space we create together, I will hold the space for whatever you bring into the room - hurt, happiness, sadness, anxiety, or otherwise. I am here alongside you.
My name is Shanika Brown. I am a graduate of the Joint Master of Social Work program from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro and North Carolina A&T State University. I enjoy working with individuals and supporting them with their mental health needs and life stressors. I have experience working with adolescents, college students, and adults in the following areas: depression, anxiety, childhood trauma, relationships, self-esteem, and others. I use multiple treatment modalities that are appropriate for clients which include these techniques and modalities: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, mindfulness, and other practices to inform treatment.
I dedicate time to building trusting therapeutic relationships with each client to guide and help them explore the vulnerable parts of themselves. I believe therapy is a partnership- and together, we can take this journey. It doesn’t mean it will be easy, but it will be worth it. You are powerful and deserving. Learn how to create the emotional life you deserve. One filled with a high sense of self-worth, regulation, and intrapersonal mindfulness.
