More about Kierra

I believe therapy is relational, like having a guided conversation with a peer, where there is no judgment. Early sessions focus on getting to know you, and over time, the process becomes more organic. I use directed questions and prompts to help you explore your thoughts and feelings more deeply. I draw on evidence-based approaches to support individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and related challenges, helping them build insight, coping skills, and meaningful change.
