Hêkan Counseling & Mental Health LLC was established August 2024. It was important to provide therapy for clients seeking peace and healing. It was also critical to provide a safe space for clients to come and feel seen and heard.

Hêkan (pronounced as ‘he- kan’), a word derived from the Fon language primarily spoken in parts of West Africa means peace and tranquility.

Finding the right name for our practice, was vitally important because the name had to also provide some representation of our care for our client; meeting clients where they are, providing empathy and positive regard, and trust. Hêkan was a word that connected with many people seeking therapy for restored relationships, past or recent trauma, family or individual distress; to feel again, to heal, to find peace and purpose.

Our empathetic, compassionate counselors are here to help you and walk alongside you on your therapeutic journey,
