About Markia Lumpkin

My name is Markia and I am a licensed mental health counselor that has been in the field since 2019 that has experience supporting adults and adolescents in navigating life’s challenges. I specialize in helping individuals work through anxiety, depression, relationship issues, emotional dysregulation and major life transitions. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive and compassionate environment where clients feel heard, understood and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change.

I earned my Master’s in rehabilitation and mental health counseling from the University of South Florida. I was drawn to be a therapist to help minimize the stigma surrounding mental health, especially in communities of color. In my work, I draw from evidenced-based approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, mindfulness and person-centered therapy to support each client’s unique needs.

My style is warm, collaborative and affirming. I believe healing begins in a safe and respectful space where clients are allowed to explore themselves without judgment. Whether a client is seeking to heal past wounds, build resilience or learn new coping skills, I am here to support them with compassion and authenticity.
