About Nakia

Nakia Roberson, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor in Texas with 14 years of experience helping people with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, self-esteem, motivation, stress, and anxiety. She also addresses grief, anger, career questions, and life changes. Sessions are practical and focused on real problems people face day to day.

She uses straightforward, skills-based approaches to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the methods she lists, alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy. She also works with emotionally-focused and Gottman-informed techniques for relationship work.

Nakia treats issues tied to family life such as blended family dynamics, adoption and foster care concerns, fatherhood issues, and family of origin problems. She also offers support around divorce, commitment issues, infidelity, jealousy, fertility, and money concerns. She lists experience with multicultural topics, self-love, and alternative sexual cultures including BDSM and kink.

Her approach emphasizes person-driven goals and practical steps. Conversations focus on concrete behaviors, patterns in thinking, and small experiments to test new ways of responding. Progress is tracked with simple tools that make it clear what is changing.

Nakia leads a group practice in Texas called Next Stage Counseling & Wellness. Interested people can review available options, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule an initial session when ready.

How her approaches translate to online work

CBT is a hands-on method that focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It helps with anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and practical daily problems by using short exercises and behavior experiments.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes values-based action and noticing thoughts without getting caught up in them. It can help with life changes, motivation, and coping when emotions feel overwhelming.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person’s perspective and uses reflective conversation to clarify goals and choices. In relationship work she may combine this with emotionally-focused or Gottman-informed techniques to address interaction patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the early work. She will discuss goals, try methods that match what the client needs, and adjust the plan collaboratively based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to keep using.

The original biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, allow brief check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Those practical benefits often help people stay consistent with small, regular steps toward their goals.
