Cliffard Mayo, MBA, MS, LAC
Helo, I am Cliffard Mayo. I am a Licensed Associate Counselor, under the supervision of Andrea Lusfield, LPC, who believes therapy should feel like a genuine human connection. My work is guided by a humanistic, person-centered approach and shaped by multicultural awareness, trauma-responsive care, and a deep respect for the identities people carry. I support individuals and couples who want a space where they can slow down, feel understood, and explore the parts of themselves that have been pushed aside while trying to hold everything together.
In therapy, I focus on creating an environment where you do not have to over-explain your feelings or justify your experiences. Many of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship challenges, identity concerns, or the pressure of being the strong one for everyone else. I do not see people as broken. I see people who have been carrying more than they were ever meant to carry alone.
My style is steady, collaborative, and grounded in compassion. You set the pace and I help guide the process. Together, we explore your story, your patterns, your relationships, and the emotional weight you have been managing. My role is to help you reconnect with your own wisdom and build a more confident and centered way of moving through your life.
If you are looking for therapy that feels real, respectful, and centered on who you are, I am here to walk with you as you create a healthier and more grounded version of yourself.

Consulting Services
I provide consulting services through Cliffard Mayo Coaching and Consulting that help individuals, teams, and organizations grow with clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of identity. My work is grounded in the Imposter Identity Framework, a model I developed to help people understand their internal identity structure, reduce emotional pressure, and move through personal and professional challenges with greater stability. This framework guides much of my consulting approach and supports clients who want to strengthen their identity, improve emotional resilience, and create meaningful change in their personal or professional lives.
As a mental health instructor, I create and deliver trainings that support emotional wellness, burnout prevention, and culturally responsive practice. Through my partnership with the Therapeadeia Training Collective, I teach a full training on the Imposter Identity Framework for clinicians and helping professionals who want to deepen their understanding of imposter patterns and identity development. I also provide speaking services for agencies, conferences, and community events where I teach identity development, emotional clarity, and the realities of working in behavioral health.
Career development coaching is a central part of my consulting practice. I help clients understand their strengths, clarify their direction, and build careers that feel aligned with who they are. Whether someone is entering the mental health field, navigating burnout, or redefining their professional identity, I offer guidance that is structured, supportive, and grounded in long-term growth.
My published work supports every part of the consulting process, including:
The Strength Within Collection, which helps clients reconnect with inner stability and emotional clarity.
So You Want to Work in Mental Health, which gives new and aspiring professionals a realistic and empowering foundation as they enter the field.
The Reclaim Your Identity workbook, which guides clients through deep self-exploration and helps them build a more grounded and confident sense of self.
These resources give clients tools they can continue using long after our work together ends.
My goal is to help people understand themselves, strengthen their identity, and move forward with confidence. If you are looking for consulting that is clear, supportive, and rooted in real human experience, I am here to help you grow in a way that feels authentic and sustainable.
