More about Kiara

  • Female
  • LCMHC

As a licensed therapist serving North Carolina, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life experiences with compassion and understanding. My practice centers on empowering clients through transformative healing, particularly for those exploring identity, relationships, and personal growth.

My therapeutic approach honors diverse experiences, with a deep commitment to creating a welcoming space for LGBTQ+ individuals, survivors of trauma, and those exploring intersectional aspects of identity. I offer culturally responsive support for clients working through stress, anxiety, self-esteem challenges, and significant life transitions.

I'm passionate about helping individuals develop self-love, clarify life purpose, and build resilient coping strategies. My work centers on understanding attachment dynamics, women's experiences, and supporting healthy sexuality and relationship structures. I approach each client's journey with respect, curiosity, and a genuine belief in their inherent strength and potential for meaningful change.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
