Not currently accepting patients

Hi there, I'm Kia!

I have a natural disposition to help people navigate through difficult times and unexpected life changes, often resulting in grief, depression, anxiety, relationship dysfunction, addiction, identity crisis, and trauma. I have worked with children and parents with intellectual, developmental, behavioral, and mental health challenges since 2007, helping families gain a better understanding of coping through Psychoeducation, Play and Filial therapy techniques. My work with adolescents and adults began in 2009, whereas I continue to utilize an integrated and holistic (“whole-person”), therapeutic approach, a fusion of CBT, DBT, Psychodynamic, Strengths-based, and Solution-focused treatment modalities, to help people experience progressive recovery through client-centered tools and practice. I am most passionate about collaborating with clients through structured partnerships while incorporating practical interventions of modern psychotherapy in a safe space for processing the journey of life, and its many deviations. When I am not providing guidance to my clients, I enjoy spending time with my husband and 2 children, traveling, and participating in DIY projects at home. I adore the art of cooking and am always researching healthy shortcuts to meal preparation. I value whole-body wellness and am committed to chronic health prevention, mental health and cultural awareness, and self-care. My spirituality is a vital factor in my personal life, and I welcome clients ages 13 and up from all ethnic, sexual orientation, and religious backgrounds to explore the inspirational, healing and transformative benefits of therapy. “I understand that there are very few mistakes that people can make in their lives. Rather, I consider these challenges to be golden opportunities to learn and grow. My ultimate goal in helping people is to encourage self-confidence and creative energy, that the gift of life so respectfully merits and deserves.”
