Jayme Barksdale-Harris, M.S.

I’m a Virginia-based mental health professional passionate about helping children and adults navigate life’s challenges. I’ve supported individuals facing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and more complex diagnoses, and I’m committed to walking alongside you toward emotional wellness.

Born and raised in Richmond in a single-parent home, I understand resilience and real-life struggles. I value authenticity, growth, faith, and mentorship. My goal is to support, advocate, and help you become your strongest self—mind and body.

My mission is to walk alongside individuals who feel overwhelmed yet still carry a desire for change. I serve youth and adults navigating anger, anxiety, depression, trauma, and cycles that feel hard to break—especially those who have felt misunderstood, unheard, or labeled by systems around them.

I am committed to helping each person build stability, strengthen relationships, and develop practical tools for growth. Above all, my mission is to ensure every client feels seen, valued, and supported as a person—not defined by a diagnosis.

I understand that seeking help isn’t always easy. Many people I work with come from backgrounds where vulnerability was discouraged or trust was broken. Growing up in Richmond in a single-parent home, I know how challenging life can be—and how much strength it takes to keep going.

I show up as genuine, relatable, and nonjudgmental. I’ll advocate for you, challenge you, and support you every step of the way. You don’t have to do this alone. Healing and growth are possible—and I’m here to walk with you.
