Meet the Founder
Jawan Dickerson-Escobar,
LMHC, LPC, LCMHC, LGPC, NCC, CAP
I believe the greatest relationship one could ever have is the one they have with themselves.
As the founder of Solace & Sage Counseling & Consulting Services, I believe meaningful change requires both compassion and accountability. People deserve space to be seen, heard, and understood—and they also deserve to be challenged to examine the patterns, beliefs, experiences, and expectations that may be keeping them from living the life they desire.
My therapeutic style reflects that balance. I am honest, direct, collaborative, and intentional. I believe in meeting people where they are without assuming that is where they are meant to stay. Therapy, to me, is not about telling you who to become. It is about creating the space to understand who you are, make peace with what has shaped you, challenge what no longer serves you, and intentionally decide who you are becoming.
I also believe healthy therapy should prepare you to eventually leave therapy. My goal is not to create dependence, but to help you develop the insight, skills, confidence, and trust in yourself to continue navigating life long after our work together has ended.
Known for my calm presence, thoughtful insight, and wisdom beyond my years, I bring the same commitment to growth beyond the therapy room. Through counseling, consultation, education, speaking, and leadership, I work with individuals, couples, families, professionals, organizations, and communities to create meaningful change that extends beyond the individual.
Who you’ve been deserves understanding. Who you’re becoming deserves intention.
