(she/her)
I am a dedicated mental health professional passionate about supporting both children and adults in navigating life’s challenges. My work focuses on helping clients manage anxiety, depression, behavioral concerns, and life transitions through evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other tailored interventions. Whether I’m guiding a child in building emotional regulation skills or helping an adult develop healthy coping strategies, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where growth and healing can happen.”
During our first session, we’ll spend time getting to know each other and talking about what brought you to therapy. I’ll ask questions to better understand your background, current challenges, and goals, and we’ll discuss what you hope to gain from counseling. This is also your chance to ask questions and get a feel for my approach. Together, we’ll create a plan for moving forward, so you feel supported and clear about the next steps
“One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is my ability to build genuine, trusting relationships with clients of all ages. I bring warmth, empathy, and a nonjudgmental presence to every session, creating a safe space where clients feel heard and supported. I’m skilled at tailoring evidence-based approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to meet the unique needs of children, teens, and adults. My strengths include active listening, clear communication, and helping clients develop practical skills for real-life challenges. I’m also passionate about empowering clients to recognize their own strengths and make meaningful, lasting changes
“My ideal clients are children, teens, and adults who are seeking support with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, behavioral challenges, or life transitions. I especially enjoy working with individuals who are motivated to grow, open to learning new skills, and ready to explore healthier ways of thinking and coping. Whether it’s helping a child navigate big emotions, supporting a teen through identity and social challenges, or guiding an adult toward balance and resilience, I strive to create a compassionate, goal-focused space where clients feel understood and empowered

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
In my therapy practice, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By using structured techniques such as thought reframing, coping strategies, and skill-building exercises, I guide clients in developing healthier patterns and achieving their personal goals. CBT allows me to provide practical, evidence-based support that empowers clients to create meaningful and lasting change

I felt seen during my first appointment. It felt like a safe place and someone actually cared to hear what I had to say. I really enjoyed talking with Nakia.
