Getting to know Muma Azeh
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina with five years of experience in the United States and 13 years of experience in marriage and parenting in Cameroon, Africa, through the Worldwide Marriage Encounter and the Catholic Church.
I am accredited to counsel military members and their families—bringing vast experience and knowledge in this field—and currently serve as a Military and Family Life Counselor at a military base in South Carolina. I served with the faith-based organization as a parenting coach for 12 years. Additionally, I worked as a Behavioral Health Consultant at Brookland Medical Practice in Cayce, South Carolina, and as a Qualified Mental Health Professional at the South Carolina Department of Corrections. Currently, I am a Military Family and Life Counselor in Columbia, SC, while also working as an online Clinical Mental Health Counselor.
I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from South University, Columbia, and I am a Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor as well as a National Certified Counselor. I am currently in the dissertation phase of my Ph.D. in Psychology and expect to graduate in a few months.
I also work as a Behavioral Health Consultant with Eau Claire Cooperative Health. Previously, I worked at a Crisis Stabilization Unit within a penitentiary department. I invite you to learn more about my education, background, experience, and counseling approach by clicking on my name above our messages. I generally check messages several times daily, Monday through Friday, and respond as quickly as possible. On weekends, my response time may be longer, and I appreciate your patience during those times, as I may be assisting other clients or fulfilling other duties. My profile’s availability is tentative, so I can arrange an appropriate time with my clients if requested.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want
to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be that person for you.
- Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
