More about Zakiya

  • 9 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

My therapy style is genuine and straightforward, yet sincere and compassionate, with extensive experience in delivering culturally competent care to diverse individuals, including under-served populations and marginalized communities. My therapeutic approach is collaborative, attachment-focused, and client-centered, influenced by Strength-based, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral, Supportive, and Solution-Focused techniques.

I am culturally competent in understanding the specific cultural, linguistic, social, and economic nuances of particular people and families. I understand people's differences and the impact of social injustices on their well-being.
