Getting to know Domenique Rivers

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), I work with patients from adolescence through adulthood, drawing on a range of modalities to help you navigate anxiety, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and recovery from trauma. I especially enjoy working with people who want to dive deeper within themselves, connecting their thoughts and physical awareness to help build a life they love. One of my favorite quotes says, "I hope you fall in love with being alive," and I hope to create a therapeutic relationship and a safe space where we can collaborate to build a life you can fall in love with. Together, we can explore the beautifully mundane parts of life just as much as the extraordinary ones. I look forward to hearing your story.

What should a new client know about working with you?

DISCLAIMER: We are not able to accept Medicare or Medicaid plans at this time. Prior to beginning my journey to become a therapist, I started out as a patient on someone else's couch in middle school. I used therapy as a way to overcome trauma from loss, changing family dynamics, and low self-esteem. In therapy, I learned how to work through my experiences and not let my challenges stop me, but instead let them grow me into the clinician I am today. Learning skills that had such a profound effect on me made me want to provide that same experience for others. I hope to be a safe space for you through your best and worst days, a place where you are always heard and seen.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Compassion, patience, and collaboration guide how I work with every patient. Meeting you where you are matters most to me, as I believe progress, not perfection, should be the goal of treatment. This belief carries into how I approach care itself. Using somatic approaches, I help you bring physical and cognitive awareness together so healing can take place as a whole, not just at the level of thought. Our work together happens inside an environment meant to feel open and accepting, a space where nothing about you needs to be hidden or edited. Psychodynamic therapy plays a role here too, helping you understand how past experiences continue to shape your outlook and approach to life today. I know starting therapy can feel daunting. That's why I focus on creating a calm space, one where you can relax, be yourself, and explore every part of your life.
