About me

Working as a Licensed Professional Counselor I am passionate about working toward creating awareness of mental health and helping young children and young adults succeed regardless of the barriers they may face. I enjoy my work as a counselor because it allows me to be creative and directly make changes. My approach to counseling includes using a team approach to achieve the client's goal, with a key component being communication and transparency.

Kianna is very authentic, really listening to problems and either helping me find solutions or guiding me down the path towards finding solutions when an issue may be too complex. Has helped me a lot with stuff I struggled with such as setting and upholding boundaries.

Kianna takes a caring and supportive approach to each session. I love how she listens and helps me to come up with positive solutions. Kianna also challenges me in ways that helps me to become a better version of myself. Kianna provides a judgement free zone and a safe space for me to be able to vent and be completely honest with myself and I love that.
