Demetrius King

Demetrius King is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, LPCC, based in Tennessee. She brings 14 years of experience guiding people through stress, anxiety, grief, addiction concerns, and life transitions. She describes her work as supportive and practical, helping people build coping skills and identify next steps.

Her approach centers on listening and tailoring conversations to each person. She combines attachment-focused thinking with client-centered care and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice patterns and try new responses. Motivational interviewing and mindfulness practices are used when someone wants to change habits or reduce reactivity.

In sessions the focus is on clear goals and practical steps. That might look like skills for managing anxiety, strategies for coping with grief, planning next moves in a career, or addressing compassion fatigue. She frames work as a collaboration and adjusts pace to match what the person needs.

Demetrius has particular experience supporting people dealing with addiction, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and caregiver stress. She also helps with issues tied to adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric matters, and serious health situations such as cancer.

Sessions aim to help people reduce overwhelm and build more useful daily routines. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and straightforward feedback so clients can move toward clearer choices and a steadier sense of direction.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Demetrius often uses Attachment-Based Therapy to help people understand how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and connections. This approach can be useful when someone struggles with trust, intimacy-related concerns, or repeated relationship conflicts.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the client's lead to set goals. That style supports people who want a therapist who adapts to their pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes when anxiety, depression, or addiction-related patterns are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose techniques that fit each person's needs, goals, and preferences. That partnership includes trying methods, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan over time.

The profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions are more manageable. Many people find online meetings let them use learned skills between sessions and keep changes practical for everyday life.
