Hello, I'm Naa, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of dedicated practice in this field. I find immense joy and fulfillment in what I do, and I consider it a profound privilege to play a role in the healing journey of the individuals I work with. Over the years, I've cultivated a deep appreciation for the transformative power of counseling, and it brings me great satisfaction to contribute to the well-being and growth of those I have the opportunity to assist. I look forward to the potential of connecting with you on your journey toward healing and personal development.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our early sessions, we'll connect through structured interviews to set meaningful goals together. I consider our therapeutic relationship as a sacred space for trust and understanding to grow. We'll assess our connection, ensure alignment, and discuss goals with the utmost dedication to creating a nurturing environment that empowers your journey toward healing and self-discovery.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My strength as a provider lies in the deep connections I build, guided by a principle of leading with love. My goal is for individuals I work with to sense this compassionate approach, fostering an environment of empathy and understanding. This commitment defines my professional philosophy, enriching the therapeutic experience for those seeking support and guidance.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with a diverse range of individuals, accumulating extensive experience in supporting those grappling with addiction, trauma, and family-related challenges. One of my genuine passions lies in working with women, particularly young adults who may be navigating the complexities of racial trauma. I approach this work with a profound commitment to understanding and addressing the unique needs of each individual, fostering an environment of empathy and empowerment. This rich history of diverse experiences has not only honed my skills but also deepened my appreciation for the resilience and strength inherent in each person's journey.

Naa is the best therapist I’ve ever had! (And I’ve been through MANY!) Very kind, solution oriented, understanding and knowledgeable. She loves what she does and you can tell! That adds to her charm and dedication to help. I always feel so much better and clearer after our sessions. 100/10 recommend her!
