About Rafiah
Rafiah Dixon is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people find steadiness and make progress toward practical life goals. She speaks plainly and works with clients to identify strengths and small steps that fit everyday life. Her style is collaborative and respectful, and she treats each person as an individual.
With 14 years of experience, Rafiah uses solution-focused methods to help people manage depression, anxiety, grief, anger, and trauma.
Background and approach
She also supports those navigating relationship concerns, parenting stress, intimacy questions, and career transitions. ADHD is one of the areas she lists among her specialties. Rafiah blends talk-based strategies with attention to body and emotions.
She draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful patterns and on mindfulness practices to calm the nervous system. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused work help clients set and reach concrete goals. Her background includes work with diverse cultural and religious groups across the lifespan.
She aims to make therapy feel like a place to explore, reflect, and try out new ways of coping. Practical tools and brief experiments are common in her sessions. Clients often leave sessions with clear next steps and skills they can use between meetings.
Rafiah frames therapy as a process of discovery, where past experiences can become sources of strength rather than limits. She encourages steady progress toward greater confidence and balance.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Rafiah often uses cognitive-behavioral therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is practical and skill-focused, useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and some ADHD-related challenges.She also draws on mindfulness therapy to teach simple awareness and grounding practices. Mindfulness can help reduce reactivity, improve focus, and support emotion regulation in everyday moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rafiah will discuss goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust techniques based on what proves most helpful. The process is collaborative and focused on clear, achievable steps.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations, phone sessions are easy when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for brief check-ins, and messaging is helpful for ongoing, flexible support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around school, work, and family demands.
