Hello there! My name is Shaakira! Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I empower clients from various backgrounds and experiences to explore their challenges. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I also integrate mindfulness and other coping mechanisms to help you develop a stronger relationship with yourself. Whether you're dealing with relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let's work together!
After your initial session, you can expect to have a better understanding of your challenges and develop goals for the course of therapy.
My biggest strengths as a therapist is my ability to provide a safe space in a virtual environment, enact empathetic listening, and maintain a non-judgemental stance in therapy sessions.
