Bakari Welles, MHS, Intern
Pre-Licensed Counseling Intern
My goal is to assist you in creating tools to use to overcome the smallest to the largest issues you may encounter. As an addiction-based counselor what I have found is that those who struggle with alcohol/substance abuse often struggle with anxiety, depression, or other mental illnesses that prevent them from living the life they have envisioned. This is where I would like to step in as an advocate by providing a safe zone that is non-judgmental, empathetic, and genuine. Remember, no one is here to judge, only here to help. I would love the opportunity to walk side-by-side with you as we embark on this counseling journey. Bakari is under the clinical supervision of Emily Dungey, LPC-MHSP.
