Welcome, I'm Kia! Life can present you with a million and one ups, downs, flips, and turns. All of this, understandably so, can take a toll on your mental health and relationships. Although we have these challenges, seeking support can be difficult. So, congrats on taking this step! You deserve a safe space to express yourself, heal, and grow to your full potential. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and the founder of Free Your Mind Therapy LLC. I obtained my Master’s Degree in Social Work with a concentration in Interpersonal Practice, through The University of Tennessee. I started my career working with At-Risk Youth and fell in love with the field. Since then, I have worked with clients of different demographics, backgrounds, and ages. I'm eager to join you on this journey. Let's work together to restore YOU.
Clients can expect to have a laid back first session with me. The purpose of our first session is to learn about each other. I'd love to get a feel for who you are as an individual, what brought you to therapy, and what you're hoping to get out of it. I also encourage clients to ask me questions!
I have a background in behavioral and mental health and have helped clients heal through grief, stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, child and adolescent issues, life transitions, and building self-esteem. While I have assisted clients in different backgrounds, demographics, and ages, I particularly specialize in clients that are adolescents, transitional aged adults, and young adults.
I have experience with clients from different demographics, backgrounds, and ages, but I focus mainly on adolescents, transitional-aged adults, and young adults.

I’m versed in the following forms of therapy, but not limited to: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strengths-Based Therapy, Psycho-Education, Mindfulness, and Psychodynamic Therapy. As a therapist, I know that one size does not fit all, therefore different modalities and techniques are adjusted based on each client’s needs.

Kia is a phenomenal therapist - she is curious, authentic - and wise. Her light hearted and uplifting nature brighten my mood every time we meet. Kia has helped me pursue my goals and deal with challenges in a supportive, friendly environment. I have had quite a few therapists - Kia is definitely the best!
