Are you seeking compassionate support in life, relationships, and personal growth? I’m Dannete Wilkerson, a Board-Certified Clinical Mental Health Coach and Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC #17463), supervised by Dr. Teyhou Smyth (LMFT #115137) and registered in California. As a National Certified Counselor and SYMBIS Facilitator, I specialize in premarital counseling for newly engaged couples, as well as working with individuals facing depression, anxiety, grief, and emotional challenges.

I believe people often form emotional stances throughout their lives, influenced by generational patterns that can inhibit healthy relationships. Many suppress feelings due to fear of judgment, conflict, or societal pressure to “stay strong.” Over time, this emotional baggage can lead to stress, anxiety, and tension in relationships. Whether you’re dealing with past trauma, fear of burdening others, or feeling disconnected from your emotions, I’m here to help you unpack those feelings and find healthier ways to express them.

Breaking these cycles is challenging but essential for personal growth and stronger connections. You deserve emotional freedom, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way. If you’re ready to overcome the hurts, habits, and hangups that cause distress in your personal and professional life, let’s work together to jumpstart your path to healing and improvement.

Using a person-centered, emotion-focused approach and the Community Resiliency Model, I help clients manage stress, foster connection, and develop healthier responses to life’s challenges. With over 20 years of experience in coaching, entrepreneurship, and executive leadership, I blend fitness, financial, and faith-based therapy to support emotional healing, conflict resolution, and overall well-being.

Now accepting new clients—let’s work together to improve your relationships, finances, and life goals for lasting change.
