Professional statement

Aqueelah Wheatley, MS, M. Phil, LMFT prioritizes a client-centered approach, enabling individuals to take charge of their own stories. In a world filled with external expectations and pressures, clients find a safe space to explore their identities without judgment while still facing meaningful challenges.

Clients that engage in services with Aqueelah, often report significant improvements in their overall life satisfaction, increased self-worth, relational fulfillment, and sustainable healthy habits that contribute to their long-term success.

My ideal client is tired of repeating the same unproductive and hurtful patterns and are willing to do the work to change the perspectives and attachment patterns that have been hindering opportunities of mental and emotional freedom.


Message to clients

As a seasoned therapist I have learned that sustainable change is about embracing our humanity and learning to love and value ourselves for who we are versus what we do. It involves taking the risk of building a genuine connection in hopes of establishing a relationship with someone that makes you feel comfortable, safe, and valued just as you are, while motivating you to be the version of yourself you’ve always dreamed of.
