Multicultural Therapists in Pascagoula, MS

Asking for help can be off-putting. I’m the therapist for people who “don’t like therapy”. The people that find me are often new to the process, uncomfortable with asking for help and/or or have negative past experiences with therapy. so when an individual finally decides to come talk, I want them to be received by someone who is real, authentic, relatable and non-judgmental.

Life often leaves us feeling stressed, depressed and or lost. Seeking therapy can be an important step in moving positively towards mental health stability and wholeness. With experience in addressing issues relating to anxiety, depression, trauma, severe and persistent mental illness, co-occurring disorders, grief and loss and marital issues, I am passionate about providing a safe, supportive, non-judgmental environment for children, teens, adults, couples and or families who need help. I seek to understand and partner with you as you identify positive steps in your journey towards healing.

My name is Nathaniel Mitchell, and I am a Licensed Certified Social Worker (LCSW) based in the Central Mississippi area and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adults and adolescents and specialize in grief and loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, oppositional behaviors, and attention-deficit disorder. I used various evidence-based interventions according to the specific needs of the client. I am motivated to work with adolescents and adults, who experience anxious and depressive feelings, trauma, stress, unstable mood, communication, and boundaries issues, to live more healthy and productive lives.

As a licensed therapist who has a passion for helping people from all ages and walks of life, I approach counseling in a holistic manner: mental, emotional, relational, spiritual and physical. The method of counseling that I practice is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), narrative therapy techniques and also applying Biblical principles.

Have you ever wanted to begin counseling, but didn’t feel like your problems were big enough? Or, have you ever ghosted a therapist because you didn’t feel helped? Me too. So, we go it alone - doing everything to change ourselves and our relationships. We continuously find ourselves stuck between what we want to do and what we “should” do. This dilemma often shows up as anxiety, depression, and relationship problems. That’s why it’s my mission to provide approachable counseling that works.

I have enjoyed working for various mental health agencies and have extensive experience in several areas of counseling. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and I have worked with individuals, couples, families and groups. I am licensed in MS, NV, CO,SD, TX, LA, AL, GA, VA, AZ and NC.

Have you been feeling worried, depressed, or upset? Are panic or anxiety taking over your life? Are you not feeling understood by your spouse or partner? Are you having trouble prioritizing your own mental health over taking care of others? I have a passion for helping people reclaim the lives they deserve through therapy. We often wonder how to handle all the stress in our lives...the first step is reaching out. I have helped many people understand themselves, their symptoms and find healing.

Life can be a daunting, unforgiving roller coaster at times. It can impact who you are in many ways without warning. Having someone to support and guide you through that journey can be revitalizing. Working through those difficult situations in a safe environment with someone you can trust to help you find healing and peace at the end of the journey. I strive to empower the individuals I work with throughout their treatment that they can keep going and overcome life's obstacles. I help individuals be confident as the captain of their treatment, venturing through the past to find answers to their present needs.

I believe the bravest thing we can do is embrace our true authentic self. Unfortunately, most of us have difficulty pushing through the negative messages that scream "YOU ARE NO BETTER THAN YOUR WORST CHOICE." We get stuck in our current experience as we wrestle with our fears, difficulty in our relationships and facing the grief of loss, convincing ourselves we do not deserve anything better than we can see right in front of us. I have a passion to help others find their authentic self and explore the barriers that may hinder them from expressing the powerful version of themselves that they long to embrace.

My clients come into session with a wide variety of life experiences and goals, but have one thing in common. Every single one desires a safe place to feel truly heard and understood.

At times the world unexpectedly delivers us difficult circumstances and unwanted disappointments ushering in seasons of relational instability and individual emotional distresses. My heart’s desire is to walk with you through those difficulties in a way that promotes personal healing and provides insights for greater clarity and purposeful living. I practice from a holistic approach to help individuals, couples, and families heal, restore, and overcome difficult situations. I look forward to working with you.

I think it's important to approach therapy with an open mind. I don't have expectations of clients other than they need and are seeking help. I have a wide variety of skills and don't know what I can help you with until we discuss the issue. At the first session we decide together if our relationship will be effective in helping you solve your problem.
