Wanda McCants
I'm Wanda. I identify as a Black queer masc of center woman. I’m here to be like your favorite Black Queer Auntie on the porch to process what’s been holding you back to get you moving forward. I love working with BIPOC and queer people and couples. We can sip tea together or play a video game to get to the same goal.

Counseling or coaching are options for getting you on your way.
First session
We'll get to know each other. We're not solving all the world's problems, just getting to know what's been holding you back. This is about relationship building in the beginning to help create a safe foundation to make changes.
Strengths
I'm empathetic, compassionate, and give grace. I use a variety of methods, but most importantly focus on the positive relationship we can build in session. I see success when people are motivated to apply skills where they can and notice changes along the way, no matter how small.
Ideal clients
My ideal client is someone looking to move themself forward in life after being stuck in a rut that doesn't serve them anymore. It's hard to change, but knowing that it's all relatable content since we're all human.
