Demetrius King

Demetrius King is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) who brings 14 years of experience to therapy. She frames work around practical support and coaching, helping people build skills for daily life. Her approach centers on respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring conversations to each person’s needs.

Demetrius focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, and addictions. She also helps people navigate grief, anger, intimacy-related concerns, and low self-esteem. Career questions and life transitions are part of her regular work, as is addressing compassion fatigue for those feeling worn down by caregiving or emotional labor.

Her wider list of focus areas includes attachment issues, abandonment, adoption and foster care experiences, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, cancer-related challenges, and relationship communication problems. She also supports people dealing with codependency, commitment struggles, domestic violence histories, drug and alcohol addiction, and feelings of guilt and shame.

Demetrius uses methods from Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. These approaches shape how she listens, asks questions, and helps people try new ways of coping and relating.

Sessions are shaped to the person rather than a fixed plan. She frames therapy as a collaborative process where clients set goals and try practical steps between meetings. People who want straightforward guidance and ongoing coaching find this style familiar and usable.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Demetrius often draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own solutions. It can help with feeling heard, boosting self-esteem, and clarifying goals. CBT looks at patterns of thought and behavior and helps people try new ways of responding, which can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.

She also uses elements of Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships affect current connections. That approach can be useful when intimacy, abandonment, and communication problems are part of the concern. Choosing which approach to use is collaborative; the therapist and client decide together based on needs, goals, and what feels comfortable.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. The therapist will discuss how to shape sessions to match practical needs and preferences during the initial matching and scheduling process.
