Hi there, I'm Malaika!
My name is pronounced as Ma-leek-ah, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in practice for the last 10 years. I've worked in community settings, outpatient psychiatric care, on mental health research teams, am an adjunct college professor, and run a private practice.
My focus
I work with individuals seeking support through challenging situations, daily microaggressions, or life transitions. My clients are ready to build stronger connections, increase self-esteem, and regain control of their lives.
My approach
I embrace an integrative approach that addresses the whole person, incorporating brainspotting and holistic practices. I believe healing extends beyond traditional talk therapy to include body-centered and wellness-focused techniques.
