MyNiqua Cotton is a Delaware-licensed clinical social worker (DE LCSW Q1-0012166) with 5 years of professional experience. She provides direct mental health and behavioral counseling to children, teens, and adults, addressing a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.
Her therapeutic approach is genuine, dynamic, and interactive. She prioritizes respect and cultural awareness in the therapeutic relationship and, as a woman of color, brings sensitivity to the impact of stigmatization. She aims to create an open, safe environment where clients can express thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment and where difference and uniqueness are acknowledged and valued.
MyNiqua is committed to helping individuals identify their strengths and resilience. She works with clients to increase motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, and approaches each person as more than the labels they may have been given.
Her practice draws on influences from cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), solution-focused brief family therapy, humanistic therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. She keeps current with evidence-based practices and tailors dialogue and treatment plans to meet each client where they are and address their specific needs.
Choosing to pursue change takes courage, and MyNiqua Cotton offers support and empowerment throughout the therapeutic journey.
