Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, which means that I have been specially trained to assess and provide on-going mental health support during and following a personal crisis. I received my MSW from the University of Denver, and completed my B.S. degree in administration of justice from George Mason University.
Prior to starting my own practice I worked in a variety of human service settings including residential treatment, secondary education, and in child welfare.
I bring a warm, friendly approach to each therapy session. I like for sessions to feel like a good conversation that leaves you feeling uplifted and more confident about yourself and your situation.
Areas of specialty include: Anxiety, ADHD, Anger Management, Complex Trauma, Depression, Life Transitions, and Relationships Issues and for children, youth, their families.
While I've had a variety of experiences, the core of my professional background is informed by the work I've done helping people face challenges such as life-threatening illness. I have over twenty years experience in oncology and hospice settings. In doing that work, I learned a great deal about helping people manage very stressful challenging experiences, including finding meaning in those challenges. I also have extensive experience in working with end-of-life and grief counseling.
I am a LPC with experience supporting diverse populations; I currently work with anyone 15 & up and specialize in areas such as anxiety, stress, burnout, depression, anger management, relationship issues, attachment styles, trauma, and bereavement. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples, drawing from various treatment modalities to personalize each client’s experience and meet their unique goals.
Hi! My name is Chris. I’m an artist turned therapist and have degree in Art Therapy/Counseling. I have trained in settings including a juvenile detention center, palliative care center, and trauma clinic. Post graduation I have worked in DC doing agency work, later in a school for neurodivergent adolescents and their families, and most recently have worked with the Marine Corps and the Navy. I work well with men, couples, and families with a specialization in military lifestyle.
I’m Nikelah Hughes, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and owner of Breakthrough Collective. I provide virtual therapy for adults and couples in Virginia and Maryland navigating anxiety, relationship stress, burnout, overthinking, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions.
Many of my clients are used to being the strong one for everyone else while struggling silently with stress, people-pleasing, communication issues, or difficulty prioritizing themselves. My approach is warm, supportive, and collaborative while also helping clients build practical tools to better manage emotions, relationships, and everyday stress.

Welcome! I keep it real around here. Over the years, I’ve learned a lot about things that tend to cause people pain and I've also learned what helps make things better. I am not a “nod and smile” or a "oh how does that make you feel" therapist, together we develop real strategies to provide you relief and renewed hope. Every person is unique and it is my job to assist you through a therapeutic process of transforming pain and other emotional distress into calmness, strength, and positive change.
