(she/her)
I am a clinical social worker who is passionate about meeting my client where they are in order to understand both their context and motivation for treatment. I am passionate about working with clients from all different backgrounds and I love being a familiar face for African American clients. I have worked in the psychiatric hospital system, the prison system, and in the community as a behavioral health consultant so I have experience with a wide range of presenting problems. I am looking forward to working one on one with clients long-term in a therapeutic setting.
In our first session we will get to know one another and identify what areas of your life you want to work on improving. We will work together to develop a treatment plan and set specific goals to work towards.
I use a client centered approach with use of self, motivational interviewing, and a solution focused approach. I utilize some cognitive restructuring techniques in order to target cognitive distortions or negative automatic thoughts.
My heart is in working with the Black community in order to normalize and encourage utilization of mental health services. I love to provide psychoeducation on anxiety, depression, and somatic symptoms of these conditions which many people do not often realize they are experiencing.
My ideal client is motivated and open to treatment to address anxiety, depression, situational stress, interpersonal concerns, and difficulty prioritizing self care.

She is very warm, inviting and gets you to challenge yourself. Her lighthearted attitude makes it easy to open up, almost like I'm talking to a good friend. Couldn't recommend her enough.

Ronika’s profile was intentional and spoke to the areas I was hoping to grow in and nurture further prior to our first session. She is so intelligent, intentional, dedicated to her clients, makes herself available to me and always makes me feel heard and hopeful after every session. We’ve had 44 sessions together and she is the best therapist I’ve ever seen hands down! Book with her & you won’t regret it :)
