I’m a licensed psychotherapist working with adults who may appear high-functioning on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally unsettled beneath the surface.

I have been working as a independent licensed clinical psychologist since 2023 and prior to that under the supervision of various clinical psychologist across the 7 years of my training. I knew from a young age I wanted to be not just in the mental health field but specifically to be a psychologist. I have always felt that the mind is one of the most misunderstood parts of our experience. The mind is wonderfully complicated and mysterious, it is also lazy, pattern seeking, and routinely predictable. I believe the biggest complexities and issues we face in life are not due to a misunderstanding of our thoughts, beliefs, past experiences, or ideas of the future. I fully believe people mostly need encouragement and safety to be able to be their best selves. I have found through my personal and professional experiences life is inherently messy and often unforgiving and it was through the kindness and patience of others that I've or others have been able to improve or heal.

Hello My name is Kianna and I have been working in the mental health field for more than 20 years. I attended undergrad at Colgate University where I studied Sociology and Biology. There I developed a passion for Mental Health and a thirst to understand why people do the things we do. I attended the Syracuse University School of Social Work and majored in Mental Health. I have worked with diverse populations of all ages since then and came to find that I enjoy working with people who have come from disadvantaged backgrounds, people of color, women, Autists, and persons living with Anxiety and Trauma of all kinds. Trauma comes in many forms and the abuser can be a member of your family, a stranger and even your society. As a Social Worker of color, I was drawn to becoming a therapist after my own struggle to find a therapist that looks like me. I want to dismantle the stigma that many communities carry about seeking help for mental challenges and show people that everyone can benefit from a better relationship with themselves.

I am not a young therapist. I have learned a great deal through my life experiences which enable me to empathize with the issues that are bothering my clients. This is my second career.
