I am Toshanika M. Kennington, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with twenty years of practice. Unwavering commitment, empowerment and compassion is the reason I do what I do! Drawing from my experience working with military families and other communities I offer compassionate care, guiding clients through their mental health journey with resilience and strength. My approach is empathetic, nonjudgmental, and client centered. I specialize in working with women of all ages, trauma, attachment issues and survivors of intimate partner violence and sexual abuse. Remember, seeking therapy is a courageous step, and I’m here to guide and support you on your journey toward healing and growth!

She is very knowledgeable about my issues and easy to open up to. She doesn’t make me feel judged and I’m able to get a good laugh.
