ABOUT
Aretha McJimson
At an early age I decided to break the generational “curse” (although it was
not termed this at that time) within my family. That determination required
me to finish college at the minimum with a Master degree, unapologetically
to those around me. Perseverance is what we all have within us, and with
the right support you will prevail through any current adversities.

Being a Social Worker has allowed me to partner with people who find
themselves experiencing challenges that they need help navigating through.
Whether its therapy or being connected with resources, I will work diligently
for and with you. The goal is for you to know that you have an unbiased,
non-judgmental partner during this journey.
My purpose and passion are to help you get to a better version of yourself
THAN you are currently operating in. “Autopilot” is what some of my clients
have described as being, “just going through the daily motions of life.” Let
me assist you in getting you off autopilot.
I have a broad range of experience with teenagers, women, and men of all
ages who have experienced emotional and physical abuse, substance abuse,
trauma, homelessness, low self-esteem, and mental health diagnoses.
Each person is rightfully their unique self, and I will provide care that is
personalized just for you and/or your family.
personalized just for you and/or your family.
Strength based perspective, behavior modification, acceptance and
commitment therapy, and solution focused with care and understanding of
the traumatic occurrences you may have experienced, will be techniques
incorporated into our sessions.
