I was a bit nervous about starting therapy as it can be difficult for me to be vulnerable but Nakie gives me the space to be vulnerable with no judgement and no shame, she doesn’t let me spiral in my self doubt nor blameful behavior but instead she gives me tools and advice to understand where others might be coming from and redirects that focus on me and is here for me and she makes sure to let me know that what I’m experiencing is valid and no one’s fault

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Genuinely couldn’t be more grateful for the lifeline her knowledge and expertise was for me. Nakia takes time to listen and understand where you are at in your mental health journey and provides excellent tools to better grow self-regulation and communication skills.
I appreciate her, she is amazing at what she does and I feel like I can talk to her even tho I’m not familiar with her it doesn’t feel forced and it feels like a safe space at all times, I got lucky having someone who seems to actually care ?
Nakia has been an excellent therapist for me. She listens and has good suggestions for me to manage the problem I am currently having. I really appreciate her and her insights.
Welcoming, understanding, empathetic.
