Tammi Hawkes-august

Tammi Hawkes-August, I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC). On my journey, as I work towards living my best life and serving, I have accumulated lifetime of experiences and have learned how to overcome and face challenges. On this journey I have achieved a master’s level of knowledge and education. In 2016 I received an MA degree in Counseling Psychology with certificates in Trauma Studies and in Addiction Studies, from Rosemont College, in Pennsylvania. Understand that I am not on this journey alone. I receive support from members in my village. My village includes family, friends, neighbors, and the church. It includes colleagues, co-workers, doctors, therapists, and a relationship with my God. I have learned and grown so much that I want to connect with you. Let me give you an example, My Pastor, Reverend, Dr., Alyn E Waller, taught me that “We are born pregnant with possibilities.” My best friend, Dr. Connie Moreland shared with me that “It is okay to not be okay.” Simple statements but very empowering. I learned through formal education how to tap into my possibilities, and how to be okay when I am not okay. I would love to share what I have learned with you. As we journey through life, we encounter situations and/or are the initiator of situations that can be so damaging, that it disrupts the chemical flow and brain chemistry. This pattern of disruption impacts our growth, and can manifest as Addiction, PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, and many other mental health disorders. Using modalities such as Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) makes it possible to learn new skills, strategies, and techniques, which will empower you and promote your ability to grow. Include me on your journey and let us collaborate to improve the quality of your life.
