Getting to know Tamieka Pennycooke

I’m a compassionate, trauma-informed Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy should be a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to be yourself. My approach is warm, supportive, and strengths-based, with a focus on helping you understand your experiences while developing practical tools to navigate life’s challenges. I enjoy working with adults who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship or family challenges, life transitions, trauma, or difficulties adjusting to major changes. I have a particular passion for supporting women during pregnancy and the postpartum period, including those navigating perinatal mood and anxiety concerns, identity changes, and the emotional demands of motherhood. My life and professional experiences have taught me the importance of meeting people where they are and recognizing that everyone’s journey is different. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you—not judge you or tell you who you should be. Together, we can explore what is getting in the way of the life and relationships you want while building on the strengths you already have.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider's self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan's benefits.
