Hello! I'm Kamisha, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Sex Therapist based in California. Currently, only offering individual therapy to adults late afternoons on the Grow Therapy platform. While I work with clients experiencing depression and anxiety and have a history of trauma, I am most passionate about individual relationship work with adults with intersecting identities in monogamous and consensual non-monogamous relationships, and with a desire to develop skills to improve their communication and create healthy relationships that work for them. I thank you all for viewing my profile. Therefore, I'd like to offer transparency and share areas of concern that you may find another therapist to be a better fit for; including family or couples therapy, grief therapy, substance abuse, support with neurodivergence, eating disorders, personality disorders, after hour crises, learning disabilities, OCD, suicidal ideation, history of psychiatric hospitalization, dissociative disorders, personality disorders, religious trauma, and faith-based therapy.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During the first session, you can expect to share your story about what led to starting therapy today. I will gather information about your history and collaborate to develop a plan for improving your overall well-being.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My therapeutic approach is strength-based and collaborative so that my clients become equipped with the skills to increase self-awareness, gain new perspectives, communicate their needs effectively, rebuild trust, and sustain healthy relationships.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I primarily work with adults experiencing relationship stressors that impact their daily lives. My experience also includes providing support to adults with a history of trauma, depression, and anxiety that impact how they show up in their significant relationships.
